// Scene and world building workflow for the Flopperam Unreal Engine MCP. Covers actor management, landscape sculpting, foliage scattering, AI setup, cinematics, and level verification. Use when placing actors, building environments, working with landscapes/foliage, setting up AI characters, or creating Level Sequences.
Blueprint authoring workflow for the Flopperam Unreal Engine MCP. Covers the full create, author, commit, verify cycle using the narrow bp_* tool surface. Use when creating or editing Blueprints, adding variables/components/events/functions, wiring graphs, or debugging compile errors.
Material authoring and VFX workflow for the Flopperam Unreal Engine MCP. Covers material creation, expression graphs, Niagara particle systems, Chaos destruction, and curve assets. Use when creating materials, material instances, Niagara systems, destruction effects, or procedural audio.
Overview of the Flopperam Unreal Engine MCP server -- tool categories, workflows, and cross-tool relationships. Use when first connecting to a running Unreal Editor, when unsure which tool handles a task, or when the user asks about available capabilities.

scene_brief for level overview, scene_query for specific actors, search_assets for meshes/materialsscene_compose for batch placement, domain tools for specific systemsscene_query with spatial filters to confirm, pie_test_scene for runtime behaviorscene_brief — compact level overview (actor counts, classes, bounds)scene_query — find actors by class/label/tag/folder with spatial filters (near, box, frustum)search_assets — Content Browser search by name/prefix/class (returns asset paths, NOT actor labels)asset_references — dependency graphs (what does X reference, what references X)project_context — engine version, plugins, project settings, maps, content statsScene tools work on actors (placed instances). search_assets works on assets (reusable files). Never confuse the two.
scene_compose declaratively spawns/modifies/deletes actors with prefabs + patterns. Prefer it over looping scene_query writes.
actor_inspect — drill into one actor (components, properties, transform)scene_compose to modify transforms, delete actors, or batch-manage scene objectslandscape_inspect — height/slope/normal queries, statistics, find flat areas, paint-layer listing.
landscape_edit handles:
Always inspect before editing to understand current terrain state.
foliage_inspect — list types + countsfoliage_edit — create FoliageTypes, scatter (circles/rectangles/by weight layer), place exact transforms, remove by radius or typematerial_inspect — read-only (overview, expressions, connections, parameters, textures, shader stats, parent chain). Run BEFORE material_edit on existing materials.material_edit — create materials/instances/functions/Parameter Collections, author expression graphs. Auto-retries single-input pin name resolution.niagara_inspect → niagara_edit for systems/emitters/parameters/renderersniagara_script_edit for reusable NiagaraScript module graphschaos_edit for Geometry Collections (fracture, clustering, damage thresholds)ramp_authoring for curve assets (UCurveFloat/Vector/LinearColor) — create the curve FIRST, then reference from the consumerFull setup workflow:
behavior_tree with create_blackboard → create keys (TargetActor, PatrolLocation, etc.)behavior_tree with create_behavior_tree → create the BT assetbehavior_tree with set_blackboard_on_bt → link Blackboard to BTbehavior_tree with build_behavior_tree → build tree structure (selectors, sequences, tasks, decorators)behavior_tree with create_ai_controller → create controller referencing the BTbehavior_tree with validate_behavior_tree → validateAlso covers: AI perception, NavMesh, EQS queries, StateTrees, Smart Objects, runtime BT + blackboard inspection in PIE.
gas_edit — Gameplay Abilities (tags, cost, cooldown, activation), Effects (duration, modifiers, stacking), Attribute Setstag_registry_edit — project-wide Gameplay Tag hierarchysequencer_edit creates Level Sequences with:
metasound_edit — procedural audio (MetaSound graphs: oscillators, filters, envelopes, mixers, sample players)sound_asset_edit — SoundCue graphs, SoundClass hierarchy, SoundAttenuation curvespcg_graph_edit — PCG graphs with point generators, samplers, filters, density operators, mesh spawners with typed pin wiring.
collision_profile_edit — collision profiles, physical materials, object type responses.
editor_actions — save, undo, redo, select, focus, build lighting/navigation, compile, PIE start/stop, viewport modeeditor_log — Output Log + Message Log with verbosity filter + time windowperformance_audit — triangle counts, actor counts by class, mesh complexity, texture memory, optimization warningswindow_capture — viewport screenshot as PNGpie_test_scene — free-tier PIE harness with:
Use after any scene change that affects runtime behavior.
