How to add a connector to a node

[malospam7]

Hello, I have a pretty simple question, and I can’t seem to find the answer in the manual. If you want to use a node, and want that node to have on the left side, for example, a “hole” so that another node can connect to it, is there a way to add something to the node to allow another node to have have an arrow dragged to it so that it can connect it to the flow? For example, the Object Instantiate node does not have a whole for another node to connect to it so it is part of the flow. Is there a way to allow this? I hope this is clear and I apologize ahead of time if its a dumb question.

Hello there,
All questions are good questions I say 🙂

So, the Instantiate node is a Function node. By default, Function nodes do not have Flow Input/Output Ports, but there is an option in the node inspector named “Callable”. By enabling this option, you will get 1 Input and 1 Output Flow Ports like you desire and thus possible to become part of the flow 🙂

You can read more about Function nodes here if you like:

Let me know if this works for you.
Cheers!

Thanks I did not even realize the NC inspector existed!I guess I’m assuming to much that I am using Unreal Engine 4 🙂
