WHAT IT DOES

What reorder_niagara_emitter does on Unreal-MCP

AI agents use reorder_niagara_emitter to create or update resources in Unreal-MCP, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Unreal-MCP environment.

RISK

Why reorder_niagara_emitter is rated Medium

Reordering an emitter changes its position within the Niagara system's list, which is a reversible modification to the data structure. It does not delete or irreversibly destroy anything, nor does it execute code or involve finances. This is a Write operation with medium severity as it modifies VFX system configuration in the Unreal Engine editor.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs reorder_niagara_emitter safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Unreal-MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For reorder_niagara_emitter, this is the rule to start with:

reorder_niagara_emitter Rate-limited

reorder_niagara_emitter stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
