How-To: Emit Your Own Payload Types

Goal: send data no built-in struct covers (crafting requirements, quest hints) to the consumers that understand it, without touching any other consumer.

Prerequisites

A provider from Quick Start.

1. Define a USTRUCT

Create a Blueprint Structure (for example S_CraftingRequirements) with the fields you need.

Verify

The struct appears in the type pickers.

2. Add it to the bag

In Provide Inspector Data: Make Instanced Struct (your struct) -> Add to Out Data.

3. Read it where it matters

Get Inspector Data -> Filter By Type (Script Struct = your struct) -> For Each Loop -> Get Instanced Struct Value.

Verify

The crafting panel shows the requirements; your tooltip, which never heard of the struct, is unchanged.
