Actor Function GetActorReference()
	return GetReference() as Actor
endFunction
Actor Function GetActorRef()
	return GetActorReference()
endFunction

Parameters[edit | edit source]

None

Return Value[edit | edit source]

The Actor this alias is pointing at, or None if the alias has not been resolved or is not an Actor.

Examples[edit | edit source]

; Obtain the actor this alias points at
Actor theActor = MyAlias.GetActorReference()

Notes[edit | edit source]

  • Under the hood, this is 'GetReference() As Actor' which is measurably faster.
