UKismetMathLibrary::InverseTransformLocation
#include "Kismet/KismetMathLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintPure
Description
Transforms a position by the inverse of the supplied transform. For example, if T is an object's world transform, this converts a world-space position into that object's local space.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • This is the companion of TransformLocation — use it whenever you need the reverse conversion (world to local) rather than manually building an inverse transform.
- • Location is a point, not a direction, so translation is applied; use InverseTransformDirection instead if you're converting a vector that shouldn't be offset by T's origin.
