Get Child By Name

Category: Objects

Description

Look for an object in the children of another object using the name of the target. This is using a recursive strategy, meaning you can find objects further down in the hierarchy as well.

This node is especially useful when a tree is attached to an instanced object, as it can be used together with Get Owner to reference only one object.
