Smart Data Storage -- UE5 Blueprints
5 ways you can store variables and access them from anywhere within your project.
Methods:
1. Data Tables
2. Function libraries
3. Actor components
4. Data assets
5. Class defaults
6. Game instance, game mode, and game state
You can store colours, floats, arrays, vectors, textures -- literally whatever. Store them all in a clever place to reduce time spent editing your code when you make changes, while also reducing your dependencies for clean migration.
Example cases:
- Colour palettes / libraries
- Float tables for movement parameters (gravity, speed, and so on)
- Enemy/character health
- Game versioning / watermarking
- Achievement lists
