UKismetSystemLibrary::GetProjectSavedDirectory
#include "Kismet/KismetSystemLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintPureBlueprintThreadSafe
Description
Returns the Saved directory of the current project on disk — the writable location used for logs, save games, config overrides, and crash dumps.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • This is the correct writable directory for a packaged build; the project Content or install directory may be read-only on consoles/some platforms.
- • Returns a raw disk path — combine with FPaths utilities rather than string concatenation for cross-platform correctness.
- • Marked BlueprintThreadSafe, so it's safe to call off the game thread.
