UKismetSystemLibrary::Conv_SoftObjPathToSoftObjRef
#include "Kismet/KismetSystemLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintPure
Description
Converts a Soft Object Path into a base TSoftObjectPtr<UObject> soft reference. Shown as the "To Soft Object Reference" node.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • The resulting reference is not guaranteed to be resolvable — the underlying asset may not exist, may have been renamed, or may not be loaded; you still need to call LoadSynchronous or an async load to use it.
- • Because the return type is TSoftObjectPtr<UObject> rather than a specific asset type, you'll typically need an additional cast in Blueprint to a more specific soft reference type before using it as a typed asset pointer.
