Hey everyone!

I’m excited to share something I’ve been working on – UDCore (Unreal Directive Core). This is a free, open-source Unreal Engine plugin that I decided to create to make life a little bit easier for fellow developers. My goal with UDCore is simple: to provide some quality-of-life improvements that make the Unreal Engine development experience better.

Right now, the plugin is still in its early stages, so it’s somewhat limited. However, it already includes a few helpful features –

Async Tasks

  • Async Move to Location

Enhanced Input Function Library

  • Add Multiple Input Contexts
  • Remove Multiple Input Contexts
  • Swap Input Contexts

Function Library for Basic, String, and Text Functions

  • Basic: Get Child Classes
  • String: Contains Spaces
  • String: Filters Characters
  • Text: Is Not Empty
  • etc.

A Plethora of Filters and Utilities for the Editor Actor Subsystem

  • Focus Actors in Viewport
  • Get All Level Classes
  • Filter Actors by Missing Materials
  • Filter Actors by Nanite State
  • And much more!

You can learn more about UDCore and its features at udcore.unrealdirective.com.

And if you want to contribute, the source is available on GitHub.
