UKismetStringLibrary::GetCharacterAsNumber
#include "Kismet/KismetStringLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticBlueprintPure
Description
Gets a single character from SourceString at Index and returns its integer character-code value.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Returns 0 if Index is out of range, which is indistinguishable from the code for a genuine null character.
- • Returns the raw TCHAR code point, not an ASCII-only value, so results for non-ASCII characters depend on the platform's TCHAR encoding (typically UTF-16).
