Function: Arco Verb To Action

Function: Arco Verb To Action is a pure helper function provided by the ArcoGameInstance class within the Project Arco framework. It maps a player verb (intent-level enum) to a player action (gameplay-level enum).

This function appears in Blueprints as a pure node named Arco Verb To Action.

Overview

The Arco Framework separates input or intent concepts ("verbs") from the actual gameplay operations ("actions"). Arco Verb To Action performs the conversion from:

• EArco_PlayerVerb → EArco_PlayerAction

Since it is marked as a **pure Blueprint function**, it:

• Has no execution pins
• Produces a value directly
• Is side-effect free
• Can be used inline in logic or expressions

Script Definition

The function is defined in:

/Script/ProjectArco.ArcoGameInstance::ArcoVerbToAction

The Blueprint-reflected signature:

• **Target:** Arco Game Instance
• **Member Name:** ArcoVerbToAction
• **Pure Function:** Yes ( bDefaultsToPureFunc=True )

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
verb	EArco_PlayerVerb	The input verb representing high-level player intent. The default enum value shown in Blueprint is BACK.

Return Value

Return	Type	Description
ReturnValue	EArco_PlayerAction	The resulting gameplay action associated with the input verb. The default Blueprint fallback shown is BAD_ACTION.

Usage in Blueprints

This function is typically used in control or logic systems that must translate a user verb or input action into a specific gameplay operation.

Example usage:

EArco_PlayerVerb  →  Arco Verb To Action  →  EArco_PlayerAction

A typical flow might:

1. Obtain a value of EArco_PlayerVerb from player input or UI.
2. Pass it into Arco Verb To Action.
3. Use the resulting EArco_PlayerAction in a Switch or behavior handler.

Because it is pure, you can drop it inside any expression or decision graph without needing Exec pins.

Notes

• If a verb does not map to a known action, the output may be BAD_ACTION.
• Mapping rules are internal to Project Arco and not exposed directly in the Mod SDK.
• This function centralizes verb-to-action translation logic so downstream code does not need to hardcode mappings.
