This is magnificent. If only I could use .NET with Unreal Engine. Guess I'll have to look into blueprints.

Are you sure you cannot use .NET? This website claims you can use .NET up to 4.5 via mono: https://mono-ue.github.io/ .

Well that changes everything! I was just going by the Unreal Engine site, didn't think to look for anything third party.

I'm in the throes of learning F# and didn't want to muddy that up by learning C++ at the same time, so thanks for alerting me to that.
