SkookumScript Helpers

This is a repository of various helpers that I've written for various SkookumScript projects. Many of these are simple wrappers whose only achievement is providing sane defaults so that you don't need to pass in a ton of arguments to common functions. Others add functionality that is missing in Unreal Engine 4.

How to Install

• Clone or download this repo somewhere.
• In your project folder edit Scripts/Skookum-project.ini and add the path to the repo as an overlay, make sure you adjust overlay numbers appropriately. If you'd like to make changes to the code in this overlay then place it prior to your project overlay like I've done in the example below, otherwise you can put it last.
