Effective Prompting

Best Practices & Limitations​

To get the best results and manage your credit usage effectively:

  1. Break Down Tasks: Instead of asking for an entire inventory system in one prompt, ask for specific parts: "Create the item structure," then "Create the logic to add an item," then "Create the drop logic."
  2. Logic vs. Visuals: Remember that for UMG (Widgets), the agent sees the code, not the canvas. It cannot "move the button 10 pixels left," but it can "make the button click event fire a server RPC."
  3. Iterate: Watch the generation process. If the agent takes a wrong turn, interrupt it and correct the course.
  4. External Dependencies: If your logic relies on a C++ class or a specific plugin node, ensure that plugin is active and the node is valid in the editor context.
