UT Classes for mobile?

Hello im going to ask this

we can use the UT Classes on a mobile game?

since most of my code usses utclasses

it would be a problem port it to the Game Classes

You'd have to do a lot of refactoring, almost to a point where it's better to start from scratch. Depends on the quantity of your code.

You could use Mass Effect classes if they were available to you, but they would require a lot of editing before they actually started to work. It's your decision whether such an endeavour is worthwhile or is it better to start from scratch.

You can't use UTPlayerController because it does not inherit from GamePlayerController which means it can't use a MobilePlayerInput for the input and thus cannot handle touch or motion input properly. Since the PlayerController and Pawn are fairly intertwined, you probably can't use UTPawn (really I mean a subclass) without some serious overriding and adjustments since you are not using a UTPlayerController. UTWeapon relies on the pawn being a UTPawn (or subclass) so you can't use that if you're not using a UTPawn (or subclass). You can see how it just keeps getting messier and messier. Using one UT class generally means using them all.

I won't say yes or no to whether you can use UT classes, but I can't imagine why you would want to. The UT classes are really there as an example of how to extend the base classes to create a game. Unless your game is extremely similar to a UT game (and, in general for a mobile game, I wouldn't really expect it to be), there is no real benefit to using UT classes that I can see personally.
