Pulse Save

Pulse Save is a runtime Unreal Engine plugin that saves and loads objects through save models (UPulseSaveModel) and a save manager (UPulseSaveManager).

The core idea is MVVM-inspired: instead of serializing your live gameplay objects directly, you save a small, explicit model that represents exactly the data you want persisted. See Core concepts for why this matters.

At a glance

1. Implement UPulseSaveInterface on every object you want to save (only override the events you need).
2. Create a UPulseSaveManager and assign a valid save game with SetSaveGame.
3. Add at least one collector, e.g. AddCollectorByClass(UPulseSaveActorCollector::StaticClass()).
4. Call Save() / Load(). Listen to OnProcessed() / OnProcessedWithReport() for completion and diagnostics.
5. Persist data with UPulseSaveUtils::SaveGameToSlot and restore with UPulseSaveUtils::LoadGameFromSlot.
6. Need a single object saved/loaded outside the main flow? Use SaveSingleObject() / LoadSingleObject().
