how is this c file getting references to the other objects?

Things like OperatingSystem and Arena. There's no include at the top so how does the file know what they are?

most likely the file is included in some other file
(yes you can also include source files, but that is not recommended to do)

Ok cool. I just cloned the repo and vscode can detect the references fine. I don't understand how it knows where stuff is if that file is the one included!

I'm assuming that epic keeps part of their code proprietary

so the extra code is added at build time

keeping the magic to themselves

Sorry I mean vscode didn't complain about not knowing where the references where from. It build fine. from source for me
