Read Dynamic Variable
Variables
The Read Dynamic Variable node takes in a Slot as a source and goes down the hierarchy to find the first dynamic space that contains the path specified. This returns the matching type's value if one is found. For more information, see Dynamic Variables.
Inputs
Source (Slot)
This is the source slot that this node reads from. If the slot for this isn't provided, the engine will default the source slot to the slot of the node itself.
Path (String)
The string input to find where to read from.
Outputs
FoundValue (bool)
Whether the value we are searching for is found or not.
Value (Generic)
The value that is found.
