Functions

	Name	Description
void	AddObjectToDelete ( UObject* InObject )	Add an object to the list of pending deleted assets, this will invalidate the scanning state.
bool	CanDelete()	Returns true if it is valid to delete the current objects with no problems.
bool	CanForceDelete()	Returns true if it is valid to force the delete of the current assets.
bool	CanReplaceReferences()	Returns true if it's valid to replace the references of the pending deleted objects.
bool	CanReplaceReferencesWith ( const FAssetData& InAssetData )	Returns true if it is valid to force the delete of the current assets with the provided asset.
void	DeleteSourceContentFiles()	Deletes any source content files referenced by the assets
bool	DoDelete()	Performs the delete if it's possible.
bool	DoForceDelete()	Performs a force delete on the pending deleted assets if possible.
bool	DoReplaceReferences ( const FAssetData& ReplaceReference... )	Performs the replace references action if possible with the provided asset.
const TSet< ...	GetAssetReferences()	Gets the packages of the assets on disk that reference the pending deleted objects; won't be accurate until the scanning process completes.
int32	GetDeletedObjectCount()	Gets the number of objects successfully deleted.
const TArray...	GetPendingDeletedAssets()	Returns the pending deleted assets.
const TMap< ...	GetPendingDeletedSourceFileCounts()	Returns a map of currently discovered source content files, and the number of times they are referenced by non-deleted assets
float	GetProgress()	Gets the 0..1 progress of the scanning.
FText	GetProgressText()	Gets the current text to display for the current progress of the scanning.
EState	GetState()	Returns the current state of the deletion process
bool	GoToNextReferenceInLevel()	Goes to the next actor in the loaded level if it is available
bool	HasAnySourceContentFilesToDelete()	Check whether we have any source files residing under monitored, mounted paths to delete
bool	IsAnythingReferencedInMemoryByNonUndo()	Is any of the pending deleted assets being referenced in memory.
bool	IsAnythingReferencedInMemoryByUndo()	Is any of the pending deleted assets being referenced in the undo stack.
bool	IsAssetInPendingDeletes ( const FName& PackageName )	Returns true if the package is one of the pending deleted assets.
bool	IsObjectInPendingDeletes ( const UObject* InObject )	Returns true if the object is one of the pending deleted assets.
FOnStateChan...	OnStateChanged()
void	Tick ( const float InDeltaTime )	Ticks the delete model which does a little work before returning so that we don't completely block when deleting a lot of things.

Classes

	Name	Description
	FOnStateChanged	Fires whenever the state changes.

Enums

	Name	Description
	EState	States used to manage the async deletion process.
