How does it work?¶

Operating principle¶

Description	Example
Spline Architect allows you to create walls and buildings by placing modular meshes along a spline. Corner meshes are generated dynamically, and they can be straight or curved.
Floor meshes are also generated dynamically and uniquely for each `SplineArchitectWall`.
Generation happens inside the `SplineArchitectWall` actor, in the `OnConstruct()` function. The generation runs every time it is loaded, unless the structure has been baked.
Once `SplineArchitectWall` is baked, all the “one-time” meshes are converted into regular `StaticMesh` components, and the actor no longer executes any logic when loading.
Baked components can still be modified, and changes will remain until the `SplineArchitectWall` is baked again.
During baking, `StaticMesh` assets are also created for corners and floors. The meshes are saved with clean names and, where possible, reused in other structures.

Description	Example
Spline Architect expects your modular meshes to be set up like this: - Their length aligned along the X axis - Pivot point centered on X and Y axes, and placed at the floor on the Z axis.
All `SplineArchitectWall` actors must be baked before packaging the game, otherwise meshes will not exist in the game. More about baking
