Operating Gang Mode

The following example contains three different Engines, as shown in the image above. All three Engines have the following setup in common:

• Engines are launched with the same Unreal Project (*.uproject)
• Engines are running in Configuration Mode
• Engines have no RGraph

Example Node Tree

Create the node tree as shown on the image above by following connections:

• EngineControl node’s Display input pin to Mixer_0 node’s Program output pin
• Mixer_0 node’s Channel1 input pin to Camera_0 node’s Output pin
• Camera_0 node’s Track input pin to UserTrack_0 node’s Track pin

The node tree is ready.

Now:

• Select the node tree except for the EngineControl by clicking and holding your left mouse button and dragging over the UserTrack_0, Camera_0, and Mixer_0 nodes
• Copy the node tree you selected by pressing ^ CTRL + C on your keyboard
• Go to the Engine Toolbar, choose Engine02
• Paste the node tree you copied earlier into Engine02’s Nodegraph by clicking ^ CTRL + V on your keyboard
• Connect the Mixer_0 node’s Program output pin to Display input of the EngineControl node inside the Engine02
• Go to the Engine Toolbar, select Engine03
• Paste the node tree you copied earlier into Engine03’s Nodegraph by clicking ^ CTRL + V on your keyboard
• Connect the Mixer_0 node’s Program output pin to Display input of the EngineControl node inside the Engine03

info

Please remember that Gang Mode is a Nodegraph operation requiring identical Node types with the same name.

All three Engines have the same RGraph construction, as shown in the image above.

Now:

• Activate the Gang Mode you learned in the earlier section

• Select the UserTrack_0 node located inside the Engine01
• Go to Input properties of the UserTrack_0
• Change the User Transform X value from -500 to -400

Since all three Engines are included in the Gang Mode, the change you made in the User Transform X value is reflected in the Nodegraph of the Engine01 and the Engine03, as shown in the image above.
