UAnimGraphNode_SkeletalControlBase

This is the base class for the 'source version' of all skeletal control animation graph nodes (nodes that manipulate the pose rather than playing animations to create a pose or blending between poses)

Syntax

class UAnimGraphNode_SkeletalControlBase : public UAnimGraphNode_Base

Remarks

This is the base class for the 'source version' of all skeletal control animation graph nodes (nodes that manipulate the pose rather than playing animations to create a pose or blending between poses)

Concrete subclasses should contain a member struct derived from FAnimNode_SkeletalControlBase
