Kitchen Builder - Swap Actor

The BP_KitchenBuilder_SwapActor is the link between the User Interface and the Kitchen Builder blueprint.

It allows the user to make changes to the kitchen style and materials in run-time.

The Swap Actor receives user input from the widget via a Blueprint Interface connection.

The Swap Actor can be directly connected to one or more Kitchen Blueprints

MyProject / Content / KitchenBuilder / Blueprints / BP_KitchenBuilder_SwapActor

Place the Swap Actor next to the kitchen and then use the eyedropper to connect one or more kitchen builder blueprint actors.

Both Swap Actor and kitchen blueprint need to be in the same level.

All connected kitchens will change together.

• Click the (+) icon to add a Material Variation
• Add one or more Material Types that should change to the new material
• Click the (+) icon next to Material Variations to Material Variations.
• Add a Tag name to identify the Material Variation.

The widget or blueprint will send the Tag name with the ID. The swap actor checks the Tag name and if it's the same it will change the Material Types to the new material with the ID.

Cabinet Styles

Cabinet Front Style, Crown Style and Kick Style can be changed independently or together if they have the same Tag name.

• Click the relevant (+) icon next to the style's name for each variation choice.
• Then select the choice from the dropdown list.
• Give the style a Tag name as explained above.

Handle Styles

Handle Style for doors and drawers can be changed independently or together if they have the same Tag name.

Setting a choice index to "None" will remove the handles.

• Click the relevant (+) icon next to the style's name for each variation choice.
• Then select the choice from the dropdown list.
• Give the style a Tag name as explained above.
