UE5 - Shuffle Using RandomStream (Blueprints Only Edition)

In this video, we talk about how to shuffle an array using the Fisher-Yates algorithm, and then we implement that algorithm in pure Blueprints. The end result is a generic reusable macro that can shuffle ANY type of array, provided a RandomStream as input.
This was neat; maybe I'll end up doing some more videos on implementing useful generic array algorithms that are missing from the Kismet Array Library.

Fantastic video explaining the algorithm and it's implementation!

Thanks for the tutorial! I didn't know about the Macro local variable trick. Very good and useful content.

It’s a shame there’s no wildcard type in blueprint functions 😩
P.S. Thanks for tutorial!
