UKismetSystemLibrary::UnloadPrimaryAsset
#include "Kismet/KismetSystemLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintCallable
Description
Unloads a Primary Asset, allowing it to be garbage collected once nothing else references it.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Does not force an immediate garbage collect or guarantee the object is destroyed — it only releases the Asset Manager's hard reference; anything else holding a strong reference keeps it alive.
- • Calling this on an asset loaded via multiple overlapping LoadPrimaryAsset requests only removes this caller's hold; the Asset Manager reference-counts loads internally.
