Hey everyone 👋
Solo dev here – I just released a small Unreal Editor plugin, Blueprint FlowTrace – Execution Tree Exporter, and I’d really love some honest feedback from other Blueprint users.
Instead of scrolling huge spaghetti Blueprints 😵, FlowTrace walks the exec wires and generates a text-based execution tree you can paste into your editor/docs/trackers or an AI chat 🧠📜 to make reviews and refactors easier.
What it does ⚙️
- Exports a full Blueprint hierarchy (events, functions, graphs) into one organized text report.
- Or just exports the selected nodes if you’re focused on one area.
- “Smart copy” shortcut (Ctrl + Alt + C) that:
- Copies selected nodes in the open Blueprint, or
- If nothing is selected, exports the whole Blueprint, or
- Exports the Blueprint selected in the Content Browser, even if it’s not open.
- Generates readable ASCII execution trees with branches, Then 0 / True / False labels, etc.
- Includes sections for globals/locals and a small legend so it’s easy to share with teammates or AI tools
(selected-only exports show just the relevant details).

This is a paid, brand-new plugin. I built it because I was tired of doing code reviews and AI prompts using screenshots and “okay so imagine this Blueprint…” walls of text. Sometimes you just need a clear breakdown of the logic – FlowTrace gives you that in a clean, evenly spaced, diff-able text format.
If you have:
- Feature requests 💡
- Pain points with big Blueprints this doesn’t cover yet 😬
- Bugs / weird edge cases 🐛
please let me know. I’m very happy to iterate based on real-world use and I’d like this to become a genuinely helpful review/documentation tool – not just another marketplace item.
