Key Features
Node to Code integrates seamlessly into any Blueprint Editor toolbar, providing immediate access to code translation with a single click. The plugin's core translation feature is powered by K2Node/K2Pin collection and serialization systems that capture:
-
Complete execution flows
-
Data connections and pin types
-
Node metadata and comments
-
Variable references and their contexts
-
Custom function and macro implementations
-
And much more
