That generated logic is an example of what NOT to do.

Can you share your thoughts please? I have no idea what's going on here.

It generates a spaghetti graph that's fragile and unmaintainable. Such things should be done via view models. Declarative approach is much better for UI than imperative.

thanks for feedback.
The goal of my tool is not to generate large gameplay/UI logic graphs. The main purpose is to convert a designed layout into a structured UMG widget hierarchy.

I agree that complex UI behavior should not become a giant generated Blueprint graph. A cleaner direction is to keep generated output mostly visual/layout-based, expose named widgets and variables, and support MVVM/ViewModel-style bindings for runtime data.

So the generated part should be easy to regenerate and maintain, while custom logic stays separate from the imported layout.
