Values

Name	Description
None
Garbage	Garbage from logical point of view and should not be referenced. This flag is mirrored in EObjectFlags as RF_Garbage for performance.
PersistentGarbage	Same as above but referenced through a persistent reference so it can't be GC'd.
ReachableInCluster	External reference to object in cluster exists.
ClusterRoot	Root of a cluster.
Native	Native (UClass only).
Async	Object exists only on a different thread than the game thread.
AsyncLoading	Object is being asynchronously loaded.
Unreachable	Object is not reachable on the object graph.
PendingKill	Objects that are pending destruction (invalid for gameplay but valid objects). This flag is mirrored in EObjectFlags as RF_PendingKill for performance.
RootSet	Object will not be garbage collected, even if unreferenced.
PendingConstruction	Object didn't have its class constructor called yet (only the UObjectBase one to initialize its most basic members)
GarbageCollectionKeepFlags
MirroredFlags
AllFlags	Flags mirrored in EObjectFlags.
