Flow AddOns

Riot Games introduced this huge change as part of their ongoing contribution to this humble open-source project. It solves the problem of big monolithic Flow Nodes with overly complex code trying to support all use cases of given mechanics in the game.

[To be described in depth.]

• Flow AddOns wiki

Flow Asset

• Improvements to Flow Diff. (contributed by Riot Games)
  • Fix FlowGraph details diffing by assigning Splitter to the FDiffControl.Widget in SFlowDiff::GenerateDetailsPanel()
  • Add nesting to tree entry display to more easily read the diffs.
  • Add individual property diffing with highlights.
  • Nest Add-On nodes inside their parent flow nodes.
  • Added FFlowObjectDiff to track all the data needed to display an individual tree entry's diff.

Flow Nodes

• Added UFlowNode_ExecuteComponent which executes a UActorComponent on the owning actor as if it was a SubGraph. (contributed by LindyHopperGT)
• UFlowNode_PlayLevelSequence: prevent multiple output pins with the same name (contributed by Soraphis)
• Add a bunch of const keywords to allow usage of LogError/LogWarning/LogNote in const functions without const_cast. (contributed by MaksymKapelianovych)
• Added check to prevent a crash when deleting two or more node assets (if some of them are in undo history). (contributed by MaksymKapelianovych)

Flow Component

• Added support for replicating variables by using the Push Model. (contributed by NachoAbril)
• Moved the "Start or Load of the RootFlow" to a virtual function. (contributed by Soraphis)
