UKismetSystemLibrary::NotEqual_SoftObjectReference

function Engine Blueprint Since unknown

#include "Kismet/KismetSystemLibrary.h"

Access: public Specifiers: staticBlueprintPureBlueprintThreadSafe

Description

Returns true if two soft object references point to different asset paths (A != B). This is the "!=" comparison node for Soft Object Reference pins in Blueprint.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Just the logical negation of EqualEqual_SoftObjectReference; comparison is by path string, not by resolved object identity.
• Two unset (null) references are considered equal, so this returns false when comparing two nulls.
