UKismetMathLibrary::GetMinute

function Engine Blueprint Since 4.0

#include "Kismet/KismetMathLibrary.h"

Access: public Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintPure

Description

Returns the minute component of A in the range 0–59. Use this alongside GetHour to display or compare time-of-day at minute precision.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Returns the minute within the current hour (0–59), not total elapsed minutes. To get total minutes since a reference time, subtract the two FDateTime values and use FTimespan::GetTotalMinutes().
• Leap seconds are not modelled — FDateTime assumes every minute has exactly 60 seconds. Code that attempts to account for real-world leap seconds using this API will be incorrect.
