UKismetMathLibrary::GetTotalMinutes

function Engine Blueprint Since 4.0
#include "Kismet/KismetMathLibrary.h"
Access: public Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintPure

Description

Returns the total elapsed time of the timespan as a fractional number of minutes, rolling up all days, hours, seconds, and sub-second components into a single value.

Caveats & Gotchas

  • Returns the *total* span in minutes, not the minutes component. A timespan of 1 hour and 30 minutes returns 90.0. Use FTimespan::GetMinutes() if you want the minutes component only.
  • Comparing two timespans by their GetTotalMinutes values is equivalent to comparing the spans directly, but introduces floating-point conversion — prefer direct FTimespan comparison operators when testing equality.
