Wardogs — GameFeatures: Utility

Extracted from cooked game data (UE 5.7 export JSON, read-only dump). Source folder: Plugins/GameFeatures/Utility/ — 13 JSON files.

1. What This Folder Holds

Utility is a set of thin GameFeature packs. Each pack is one consumable, deployable, throwable or tool, and each one does only one thing: it adds an External Data Layer (EDL) that holds the item’s world content. The items’ gameplay data lives in the Items and Weapons folders, which other docs cover.

Metric	Value
Files	13
GameFeatureData packs	13
Actions per pack	1 `GameFeatureAction_AddWorldPartitionContent` (12 packs) or none (`THRW_007`)
Data layers referenced	12

2. Packs and Data Layers

Category	Pack	Data layer (EDL)
Consumables	`CONS_001`	`EDL_CONS_001`
Consumables	`CONS_002`	`EDL_CONS_002`
Consumables	`CONS_003`	`EDL_CONS_003`
Deployables	`DPLY_001`	`EDL_DPLY_001`
Deployables	`DPLY_002`	`EDL_DPLY_002`
Deployables	`DPLY_003`	`EDL_DPLY_003`
Throwables	`THRW_001`	`EDL_THRW_001`
Throwables	`THRW_002`	`EDL_THRW_002`
Throwables	`THRW_007`	none (empty pack)
Tools	`TOOL_001`	`EDL_TOOL_001`
Tools	`TOOL_002`	`EDL_TOOL_002`
Tools	`TOOL_003`	`EDL_TOOL_003`
Tools	`TOOL_004`	`EDL_TOOL_004`

Each pack is a single GameFeatureData asset plus its action. The EDL name matches the pack name with an EDL_ prefix.

3. How It Is Used

Loading a pack activates its data layer, which brings the item’s world content into the level.
Packs are split by category so they can be loaded per item rather than all at once.
THRW_007 has no action or data layer in this dump. It may be a placeholder or a throwable whose content is provided elsewhere. Not confirmed.

4. Still not pulled / limitations

Layer contents. The EDL assets themselves are not in this folder, so what each layer contains is not shown.
Item linkage. The mapping from a pack to the item tag (for example Id.Item.*) is not in this folder. It is in the Items and Weapons data.
THRW_007. Not explained by the dump.
