UKismetSystemLibrary::GetDefaultLocale

function Engine Blueprint Since 4.0

#include "Kismet/KismetSystemLibrary.h"

Access: public Specifiers: staticBlueprintPure

Description

Returns the platform's default locale for internationalization (number/date formatting, currency, etc.), as an IETF language tag such as "zh-Hans-CN".

Caveats & Gotchas

• Governs regional formatting conventions, not necessarily the UI display language — see GetDefaultLanguage for that, and note the two can differ on platforms that distinguish system language from regional format.
• The tag can include optional script and country subtags; parse it as a full IETF tag rather than assuming a bare two-letter code.
