Functions Summary
		SetSkelControlActive (bool bInActive)
		SetSkelControlStrength (float NewStrength, float InBlendTime)

bInitializedCachedNodeList Source code

BlendTimeToGo Source code

Amount of time left in the currently active blend.

CachedNodeList Source code

Cached list of nodes to get strength from

ControlPosX Source code

Used by editor.

ControlPosY Source code

Used by editor.

ControlTickTag Source code

Used to ensure we don't tick this SkelControl twice, if used in multiple different control chains. Compared against the SkeletalMeshComponent TickTag.

DrawWidth Source code

Used by editor.

NextControl Source code

Next SkelControl in the linked list.

SkelComponent Source code

SkeletalMeshComponent owner

StrengthTarget Source code

Strength towards which we are currently ramping.

Controller

BlendInTime Source code

When calling SetActive passing in 'true', indicates how many seconds to take to reach a ControlStrength of 1.0.

BlendOutTime Source code

When calling SetActive passing in 'false', indicates how many seconds to take to reach a ControlStrength of 0.0.

BoneScale Source code

This scaling is applied to the bone that this control is acting upon.

bPropagateSetActive Source code

If true, calling SetSkelControlActive on this node will call SetSkelControlActive on the next one in the chain as well.

bSetStrengthFromAnimNode Source code

If true, Strength will be the same as given AnimNode(s). This is to make transitions easier between nodes and Controllers.

ControlName Source code

Name used to identify this SkelControl.

ControlStrength Source code

Used to control how much affect this SkelControl has. 1.0 means fully active, 0.0 means have no affect. Exactly how the control ramps up depends on the specific control type.

IgnoreAtOrAboveLOD Source code

If the LOD of this skeletal mesh is at or above this LOD, then this SkelControl will not be applied.

StrengthAnimNodeNameList Source code

List of AnimNode names, to get Strength from

SkelControlBase

bEnableEaseInOut Source code

If true, when skel control becomes active it uses a curve rather than a linear blend to blend in more smoothly.

bIgnoreWhenNotRendered Source code

whether this control should be ignored if the SkeletalMeshComponent being composed hasn't been rendered recently @note this can be forced by the SkeletalMeshComponent's bIgnoreControllersWhenNotRendered flag

EBoneControlSpace Source code

Enum for controlling which reference frame a controller is applied in.

SetSkelControlActive Source code

Toggle the active state of the SkeControl. If passing in true, will take BlendInTime to reach a ControlStrength of 1.0. If passing in false, will take BlendOutTime to reach a ControlStrength of 0.0.

SetSkelControlStrength Source code

Set custom strength with optional blend time.
@param NewStrength Target Strength for this controller.
@param InBlendTime Time it will take to reach that new strength. (0.f == Instant)
