Exposed “Save foliage data to disk” function to blueprints so you can manually force a save in case you need to shut down the game and not having to wait for auto saving to finish
Added a custom Foliage Manager class to Project Settings that allows you to use a custom manager, this manager has the ability to customise the save game name (for now)
Added overridable function “Save Foliage Data to Disk” to the Foliage Manager that allows you to implement custom logic when foliage is being saved
Fixed a crash when shutting down the application with a async function in flight
Removed AsyncTimeout from Plugin Settings as it was no longer used
Removed Logging from Plugin Settings as it was no longer used, see Logging examplehow to enable logging for the plugin
All Async functions now have a timeout parameter that you can set, this timeout value determines the maximum amount of time a function will run until its cancelled if we don’t get a callback from Steam
The Custom Invites feature is designed for developers who want to use their own grouping technology while still taking advantage of the Social Overlay and Epic Games Launcher invite buttons and prompts.Developers provide an arbitrary string payload for transmission to other players, and this payload is sent either through direct API call or via the Social Overlay Invite button. Players on the receiving side will see the same Social Overlay “Invite Received” prompts as with EOS Sessions and Lobbies, and received invites can also trigger new EOSSDK API callbacks if desired.
Added CustomInvites UI elements and functionality to AuthAndFriends sample.
A “Send Invite” button opens a send invite dialog which allows the user to set a payload and choose a target user, and ultimately “send” an invite. Instead of using the Send button, the Overlay can also be opened where a “Send” button will appear next to any users currently eligible to receive the invitation.
When an invite is received, a dialog appears with detail about the invite and offers “Accept” and “Decline” buttons which ultimately call FinalizeInvite with Success/Canceled results.
