Remote Setup

Start the Python Debug Server on the PyCharm machine before connecting from Unreal.

  • PyCharm machine: allow the debug port through the firewall.
  • Unreal machine: set Debug Host to the PyCharm machine's LAN IP, and PyCharm Executable Location to a local PyCharm Professional install.
  • In PyCharm, Debug Server config -> Path mappings: map your tool's local source folder to its path on the Unreal machine.
