How to Convert Boolean Getters

Step-by-step guide to converting Get nodes into Branch on Boolean nodes

This guide walks you through the process of converting standard boolean Get nodes into streamlined Branch on Boolean nodes.

Quick Start

Create a Boolean Variable

In your Blueprint, add a boolean variable (e.g., bIsAlive, bCanJump, bIsEnabled).

Done!

The Get node is replaced with a Branch on Boolean node that displays the variable name and has True/False execution outputs.

Understanding the Converted Node

After conversion, your new node will have:

Input Pin

  • Execute - The execution input pin (white arrow). Connect this to your event or previous node's output.

Output Pins

  • True - Executes when the boolean variable is true
  • False - Executes when the boolean variable is false

Node Title

The node title displays as "Branch on [VariableName]" (e.g., "Branch on bIsAlive"), making it immediately clear which variable controls the branch.
