Cheat Arguments (Blueprint)

Typed inputs your cheat declares in Named Expected Arguments — declaration, per-type fields, and the value-reading nodes.

Cheat arguments are the typed inputs your cheat declares in Named Expected Arguments. The map key is the argument's name (used to look it up inside Execute); the value is one of the argument classes listed below.

Declaring arguments

Open your BPCheat_* asset.
In Class Defaults, expand Named Expected Arguments.
Click + to add an entry. The map key is the argument's name — this is what you'll look it up by inside Execute.
For the value, click the dropdown and pick the argument class — one of:
- Blueprint Cheat Bool Argument
- Blueprint Cheat Int Argument
- Blueprint Cheat Float Argument
- Blueprint Cheat Double Argument
- Blueprint Cheat String Argument
- Blueprint Cheat Enum Argument
Each entry expands inline. Fill in the per-type fields below.
Use distinct Position values (0, 1, 2 …) to control both console parsing order and menu sort order.

Universal fields

These appear on every argument:

Field	Notes
Display Name	Label shown in the menu and used in error text. Falls back to the argument name.
Position	0-based positional index. Drives console parsing order and menu sort order.
Optional	When on, parsing succeeds even if the player omits this token (and any later ones).

Per-type fields

Bool argument

Field	Notes
Default Value	Optional. Applied when the console token is missing.

Accepted console spellings: true/false, 1/0, yes/no.

Int argument

Field	Notes
Default Value	Optional.
Min Value	Optional inclusive lower bound.
Max Value	Optional inclusive upper bound.

When both Min and Max are set, the menu spinner clamps to that range.

Float argument

Field	Notes
Default Value	Optional.
Min Value	Optional inclusive lower bound.
Max Value	Optional inclusive upper bound.

Double argument

Same fields as Float, with double precision.

String argument

Field	Notes
Default Value	Optional.
Min String Length	Inclusive minimum length. Default `0`.
Max String Length	Inclusive maximum length. Default `9999`.

Enum argument

Field	Notes
Enum Type	Picks the enum asset this argument represents. Drives parsing and menu drop-down.
Default Value	Default enum entry, or `None` for no default.

The console accepts either the entry's display name or its raw name. The menu surfaces a drop-down populated with the enum's display names.

Reading values inside `Execute`

The Execute event hands you a Map<Name, BlueprintCheatArgument> keyed by the names you set above. Look the entry up with Find, then convert with the matching getter.

Execute(Controller, CheatArguments, OutcomeMessage)
  ├─ Find(CheatArguments, "Multiplier") ──► Argument
  ├─ Get Cheat Argument As Float (Argument) ──► Multiplier (float), bSuccess
  └─ Branch on bSuccess
       ├─ true  → use Multiplier, set OutcomeMessage = "OK", Return true
       └─ false → set OutcomeMessage = "Multiplier missing", Return false

Value-reading nodes

Argument type	Node
Bool	Get Cheat Argument As Bool
Int	Get Cheat Argument As Int
Float	Get Cheat Argument As Float
Double	Get Cheat Argument As Double
String	Get Cheat Argument As String
Enum	Get Cheat Argument As Enum (typed K2 node)

Each returns bSuccess. A false result means the argument was missing, the type didn't match, or the player skipped an optional argument. Use that bool to gate your logic and set OutcomeMessage.

For raw enum access there is also Get Cheat Argument As Enum Value, which returns a generic int32 — but the typed Get Cheat Argument As Enum node is almost always preferable.

Default-value nodes

When you want to read the configured default rather than the runtime value (useful inside custom argument widgets):

Get Cheat Argument Default Bool Value
Get Cheat Argument Default Int Value
Get Cheat Argument Default Float Value
Get Cheat Argument Default Double Value
Get Cheat Argument Default String Value
Get Cheat Argument Enum Default Value Display Name

Clamp / metadata nodes

Node	Returns
Get Cheat Argument Int Min Max	Min/max for an int argument.
Get Cheat Argument Float Min Max	Min/max for a float argument.
Get Cheat Argument Double Min Max	Min/max for a double argument.
Get Cheat Argument String Length Min Max	Min/max length for a string argument.
Get Cheat Argument Enum Display Names	Display names of all the enum options.

These are what custom argument widgets call from On Expected Argument Set to configure their controls.

Setter nodes

For custom argument widgets that push their edited value back into the argument before the cheat executes:

Set Cheat Argument Boolean Value
Set Cheat Argument Int Value
Set Cheat Argument Float Value
Set Cheat Argument Double Value
Set Cheat Argument String Value

The default menu row already calls these via each widget's Commit Value event — only call setters yourself in custom widgets.
