Resumen

Use when driving Niagara VFX from C++: spawning a system, overriding User parameters, binding data interfaces, sending gameplay data through Niagara Data Channels, pooling components or handling OnSystemFinished. Also use when the user mentions 'Niagara', 'particle system', 'VFX', 'UNiagaraComponent', 'UNiagaraFunctionLibrary', 'SpawnSystemAtLocation', 'SpawnSystemAttached', 'SetVariableFloat', 'User. parameter', 'data interface', 'ENCPoolMethod', 'sim cache', 'lightweight emitter', 'muzzle flash' or 'impact effect'. For particle materials and dynamic material instances, see ue-materials-rendering; for audio-reactive effects, see ue-audio-system.

UE Niagara Effects

Target engine: UE 5.8. APIs below are verified against the 5.8 headers; older forms are listed under "Deprecated — do not use".

Niagara ships as the Niagara plugin (Engine/Plugins/FX/Niagara, enabled by default). Game code spawns and drives systems through UNiagaraFunctionLibrary and UNiagaraComponent, feeds them structured data through data interfaces and Niagara Data Channels, and controls cost through component pooling and UNiagaraEffectType scalability. Add "Niagara" to your module's PublicDependencyModuleNames, plus "NiagaraCore" when you subclass UNiagaraDataInterface.

Context

Read .agents/ue-project-context.md if it exists (module names, conventions, enabled plugins, GAS/networking setup). Do not stop if it is missing.

Identify the area from the request and the codebase. Ask only when two plausible readings would produce different code.

System and Component Model

UNiagaraSystem                    asset; holds TArray<FNiagaraEmitterHandle>
  └── FNiagaraEmitterHandle       GetEmitterBase() -> UNiagaraEmitterBase
        ├── UNiagaraEmitter       ENiagaraEmitterMode::Standard (stateful, scripted)
        └── UNiagaraStatelessEmitter  ENiagaraEmitterMode::Stateless (lightweight)
UNiagaraComponent                 runtime instance; GetSystemInstanceController()

Authors expose parameters to C++ by placing them in the User. namespace in the Niagara editor. Only User.* parameters can be overridden at runtime; System.*, Emitter.*, Particle.* and Module.* are simulation-internal.

Discover what an asset exposes without opening the editor:

#include "NiagaraFunctionLibrary.h"

// FNiagaraUserParameterInfo: ParameterName, ParameterType, TypeName.
const TArray<FNiagaraUserParameterInfo> Params = UNiagaraFunctionLibrary::GetAllUserParameters(ImpactSystem);
// FNiagaraMinimalEmitterInfo: EmitterName, bIsEnabled, bIsLightweight, UsedRendererMaterials, UsedRendererMeshes.
const TArray<FNiagaraMinimalEmitterInfo> Emitters = UNiagaraFunctionLibrary::GetAllEmitters(ImpactSystem);

Spawning Systems

#include "NiagaraComponent.h"
#include "NiagaraFunctionLibrary.h"

// One-shot at a world location. Returns nullptr on dedicated servers and when the
// pre-cull check rejects the spawn, so always null-check.
UNiagaraComponent* ImpactVFX = UNiagaraFunctionLibrary::SpawnSystemAtLocation(
    this,                                            // const UObject* WorldContextObject
    ImpactSystem,                                    // UNiagaraSystem*
    HitLocation,                                     // FVector Location
    FRotator::ZeroRotator,                           // FRotator Rotation
    FVector(1.0f),                                   // FVector Scale
    /*bAutoDestroy=*/ true,
    /*bAutoActivate=*/ true,
    ENCPoolMethod::AutoRelease,
    /*bPreCullCheck=*/ true);

if (ImpactVFX)
{
    ImpactVFX->SetVariableVec3(FName("User.HitNormal"), HitNormal);
    ImpactVFX->SetVariableLinearColor(FName("User.HitColor"), DamageColor);
}

Attached, persistent effect. Note the argument order: bAutoDestroy comes before bAutoActivate here.

UNiagaraComponent* TrailVFX = UNiagaraFunctionLibrary::SpawnSystemAttached(
    TrailSystem,
    WeaponMesh,                                      // USceneComponent* AttachToComponent
    FName("MuzzleSocket"),                           // FName AttachPointName
    FVector::ZeroVector,
    FRotator::ZeroRotator,
    EAttachLocation::SnapToTarget,
    /*bAutoDestroy=*/ false,
    /*bAutoActivate=*/ true,
    ENCPoolMethod::ManualRelease,
    /*bPreCullCheck=*/ true);

A second SpawnSystemAttached overload inserts FVector Scale after Rotation and then orders the tail as LocationType, bAutoDestroy, PoolingMethod, bAutoActivate, bPreCullCheck. Pick one overload deliberately; the two are easy to confuse.

SpawnSystemAtLocationWithParams and SpawnSystemAttachedWithParams take a single FFXSystemSpawnParameters struct (Particles/ParticleSystemComponent.h) when you want named fields instead of a long argument list. That struct carries EPSCPoolMethod PoolingMethod, not ENCPoolMethod.

For an effect that repeats on one actor, own the component instead of spawning per event:

// Header:
UPROPERTY(VisibleAnywhere, Category = "VFX")
TObjectPtr<UNiagaraComponent> EngineTrailVFX;

// Constructor:
EngineTrailVFX = CreateDefaultSubobject<UNiagaraComponent>(TEXT("EngineTrailVFX"));
EngineTrailVFX->SetupAttachment(GetRootComponent());
EngineTrailVFX->SetAutoActivate(false);

// Gameplay. SetAsset resets existing override parameters unless you opt out,
// so re-apply User parameters after a swap or pass false.
EngineTrailVFX->SetAsset(BoostTrailSystem, /*bResetExistingOverrideParameters=*/ true);
EngineTrailVFX->Activate(/*bReset=*/ true);

Lifecycle Control

NiagaraComp->Activate(/*bReset=*/ false);   // resume
NiagaraComp->Activate(/*bReset=*/ true);    // restart from scratch
NiagaraComp->Deactivate();                  // stop spawning, let particles drain
NiagaraComp->DeactivateImmediate();         // kill particles now
NiagaraComp->ResetSystem();                 // restart from time 0
NiagaraComp->ReinitializeSystem();          // full re-init; more expensive than ResetSystem
NiagaraComp->SetPaused(true);
NiagaraComp->SetAutoDestroy(true);

// Warm-up: advance age before the effect becomes visible.
NiagaraComp->SetDesiredAge(2.5f);
NiagaraComp->SeekToDesiredAge(2.5f);

// Deterministic stepping for cutscenes and tests.
NiagaraComp->AdvanceSimulation(/*TickCount=*/ 30, /*TickDeltaSeconds=*/ 0.0166f);

Setting User Parameters

Setters take an FName including the namespace prefix. They are silent no-ops when the name or the type does not match the asset.

NiagaraComp->SetVariableFloat(FName("User.DamageAmount"), 150.0f);
NiagaraComp->SetVariableInt(FName("User.ProjectileCount"), 12);
NiagaraComp->SetVariableBool(FName("User.bIsCritical"), bIsCriticalHit);
NiagaraComp->SetVariableVec2(FName("User.UVOffset"), FVector2D(0.5, 0.25));
NiagaraComp->SetVariableVec3(FName("User.TargetDirection"), AimDirection);
NiagaraComp->SetVariableVec4(FName("User.CustomData"), FVector4(1.0, 0.5, 0.0, 1.0));
NiagaraComp->SetVariableLinearColor(FName("User.TintColor"), FLinearColor::Red);
NiagaraComp->SetVariableQuat(FName("User.Orientation"), GetActorQuat());
NiagaraComp->SetVariableMatrix(FName("User.LocalToTarget"), TargetMatrix);

// Positions go through the LWC-aware setter, not SetVariableVec3.
NiagaraComp->SetVariablePosition(FName("User.WorldOrigin"), WorldSpaceOrigin);

// Object-valued parameters.
NiagaraComp->SetVariableObject(FName("User.TargetMesh"), TargetMeshComponent);
NiagaraComp->SetVariableActor(FName("User.SourceActor"), this);
NiagaraComp->SetVariableMaterial(FName("User.FXMaterial"), DynamicMaterial);
NiagaraComp->SetVariableStaticMesh(FName("User.ScatterMesh"), ScatterMesh);
NiagaraComp->SetVariableTexture(FName("User.FlowMap"), FlowTexture);
NiagaraComp->SetVariableTextureRenderTarget(FName("User.SceneRT"), SceneRenderTarget);

// Getters report success through an out parameter and are [[nodiscard]].
bool bIsValid = false;
const float CurrentRate = NiagaraComp->GetVariableFloat(FName("User.EmitRate"), bIsValid);
Namespace prefixSettable from C++
User.Yes — the only runtime-overridable namespace
System.No — engine-owned (Age, DeltaTime, ExecutionState)
Emitter.No — per-emitter simulation state
Particle.No — per-particle simulation state
Module.No — private to a stack node

Full C++-to-Niagara type table, the array function library matrix and the pool-method values are in niagara-parameter-types.md.

Data Interfaces

Data interfaces are UNiagaraDataInterface subclasses exposed as User.* parameters of DI type. Bind them with the typed helpers in UNiagaraFunctionLibrary, which take the parameter name as const FString&.

UNiagaraFunctionLibrary::OverrideSystemUserVariableSkeletalMeshComponent(
    NiagaraComp, TEXT("User.SourceMesh"), GetMesh());

UNiagaraFunctionLibrary::SetSkeletalMeshDataInterfaceFilteredBones(
    NiagaraComp, TEXT("User.SourceMesh"), { FName("hand_l"), FName("hand_r") });

UNiagaraFunctionLibrary::SetSkeletalMeshDataInterfaceSamplingRegions(
    NiagaraComp, TEXT("User.SourceMesh"), { FName("UpperBody") });

UNiagaraFunctionLibrary::OverrideSystemUserVariableStaticMeshComponent(
    NiagaraComp, TEXT("User.ScatterMesh"), ScatterMeshComponent);

UNiagaraFunctionLibrary::SetTextureObject(NiagaraComp, TEXT("User.FlowTexture"), FlowTexture);

Array DIs are the workhorse for pushing gameplay data per frame. These helpers take FName:

#include "NiagaraDataInterfaceArrayFunctionLibrary.h"

TArray<FVector> Waypoints = BuildWaypoints();
UNiagaraDataInterfaceArrayFunctionLibrary::SetNiagaraArrayVector(
    NiagaraComp, FName("User.Waypoints"), Waypoints);

UNiagaraDataInterfaceArrayFunctionLibrary::SetNiagaraArrayFloatValue(
    NiagaraComp, FName("User.HeatData"), /*Index=*/ 5, /*Value=*/ 0.9f, /*bSizeToFit=*/ false);

Fetch a DI object when you need to mutate it directly:

#include "NiagaraDataInterfaceCurve.h"

UNiagaraDataInterfaceCurve* CurveDI =
    UNiagaraFunctionLibrary::GetDataInterface<UNiagaraDataInterfaceCurve>(
        NiagaraComp, FName("User.SpeedCurve"));

if (CurveDI)
{
    CurveDI->Curve.Reset();
    CurveDI->Curve.AddKey(0.0f, 0.0f);
    CurveDI->Curve.AddKey(1.0f, 500.0f);
#if WITH_EDITORONLY_DATA
    CurveDI->UpdateLUT();    // editor-only
#endif

# UE Niagara Effects

Target engine: **UE 5.8**. APIs below are verified against the 5.8 headers; older forms are listed under "Deprecated — do not use".

Niagara ships as the `Niagara` plugin (`Engine/Plugins/FX/Niagara`, enabled by default). Game code spawns and drives systems through `UNiagaraFunctionLibrary` and `UNiagaraComponent`, feeds them structured data through data interfaces and Niagara Data Channels, and controls cost through component pooling and `UNiagaraEffectType` scalability. Add `"Niagara"` to your module's `PublicDependencyModuleNames`, plus `"NiagaraCore"` when you subclass `UNiagaraDataInterface`.

## Context

Read `.agents/ue-project-context.md` if it exists (module names, conventions, enabled plugins, GAS/networking setup). Do not stop if it is missing.

Identify the area from the request and the codebase. Ask only when two plausible readings would produce different code.
