class UGameplayTagsSettings : public UGameplayTagsList

Remarks

Class for importing GameplayTags directly from a config file. FGameplayTagsEditorModule::StartupModule adds this class to the Project Settings menu to be edited. Editing this in Project Settings will output changes to Config/DefaultGameplayTags.ini.

Primary advantages of this approach are: -Adding new tags doesn't require checking out external and editing file (CSV or xls) then reimporting. -New tags are mergeable since .ini are text and non exclusive checkout.

To do: -Better support could be added for adding new tags. We could match existing tags and autocomplete subtags as the user types (e.g, autocomplete 'Damage.Physical' as the user is adding a 'Damage.Physical.Slash' tag).
