How to filter items from BP_Config_Property_Class?

Hey all!

Using the ModConfiguration class, I created the Section Properties using the

BP Config Property Class

BP Config Property Class

, it's limiting by the Base Class

FGEquipmentDescriptor

FGEquipmentDescriptor

.

The issue is that I couldn't find any way to filter out even more items from that list.

E.g. I would like to remove

FGConsumableDescriptor

FGConsumableDescriptor

FGDecorationDescriptor

FGDecorationDescriptor

, etc from that list.

Is there a way to hook or add a filter to that list? Maybe create my own Config Property Class BP?

Bonus: Also would be very nice to transform those texts in more User Friendly names

Solution

For future references, basically how to achieve this:

Create your own Widget Class extending

Widget_CP_Base

Widget_CP_Base

(you can copy the whole

Widget_CP_Class

Widget_CP_Class

)
- Here you will edit how the widget get the data and display it in the dropdown box (In my case I prepared the data in my game instance so I could re-use to validate the user input).

Create your own

BP_ConfigPropertyClass

BP_ConfigPropertyClass

(This is needed because the Widget is created inside this class and you cannot change it to your newly created one)

And that's it!
