Actor¶

Wraps a UE level actor with Pythonic property access and transform manipulation.

Import¶

from pyunreal.scene import Actor

Spawning Actors¶

light = Actor.spawn('PointLight', name='MyLight', location=(200, 0, 300))
cube = Actor.spawn('StaticMeshActor', name='Cube_01',
                   location=(0, 0, 50), rotation=(0, 45, 0), scale=(2, 2, 2))

Properties (read-write)¶

Property	Type	Description
`name`	str	Actor label in World Outliner
`location`	tuple	World location `(x, y, z)`
`rotation`	tuple	World rotation `(pitch, yaw, roll)`
`scale`	tuple	World scale `(x, y, z)`

Set properties with tuples or dicts:

actor.location = (100, 200, 0)
actor.rotation = {'pitch': 0, 'yaw': 45, 'roll': 0}

Properties (read-only)¶
