Overview

WCGASCurriculumComp is a per-actor component that manages curriculum-based ability progression. It tracks which curricula are active, which abilities have been granted, handles purchase transactions, and responds to character state changes (level-ups, heritage changes, events). The component delegates evaluation logic to WCGASCurriculumSub while maintaining individual actor progression state.

Core Functionality

• Tracks active curriculum IDs for individual actors
• Stores granted ability records with metadata (curriculum source, grant mode, loss behavior)
• Maintains available purchases list for purchasable abilities
• Handles curriculum events for event-triggered grants
• Processes evaluation results from subsystem (grants, suspends, revokes, reactivates)
• Binds to LevelingComponent and HeritageComponent for automatic re-evaluation
• Supports save/load of complete curriculum state
• Provides Blueprint-accessible queries for UI and gameplay systems
• Broadcasts events for ability grants, suspensions, revocations, and purchases
• Replicates state for multiplayer (server-authoritative)

Initialization Flow

Automatic Initialization (Default Behavior):

1. Component reaches BeginPlay
2. bAutoInitializeOnBeginPlay = true triggers deferred initialization (next tick)
3. ASC lookup with PlayerState priority (6-level priority cascade)
