Please note that file comments had no purpose in nearly all cases and just added visual clutter. The two files that had meaningful file comments had their comments moved into the corresponding classes. There are still hundreds of file comments left in other files that will be removed over time.
Also cleaned up some random stuff along the way:
- relative paths to public headers within the same module are no longer necessary (automatically discovered by UBT now)
- header guards are deprecated, use #pragma once instead (all compilers support it now)
- space between multiple template brackets is no longer required (all compilers support >> now)
- NULL to nullptr, OVERRIDE to override
- spelling errors, whitespace, line breaks

- also fixed auto complete settings not actually editable
- should also fix console history currently not working

Changed anything using "target" to use "support" instead. Made some description text less verbose.

TTP# 332489 - TOOLS FEATURE: Editor: Allow user to designate which platforms a project is designed for; warn user when deploying to platforms that will result in a bad time
There is now a "Target Platforms" tab in the project settings which allows you to choose which platforms your project will target. This information is stored inside the .uproject file.
If you try and launch, cook, or package for a project that isn't on the supported list, then you'll see a suppressible warning notifying you that the project may not run as expected. This is also conveyed to you via a warning icon next to platforms which aren't set as a target.
Additionally the target platform icons are shown in the tooltip on the "Open Project" dialog, as well as in the tab area of the level editor.

Up until this change, project settings caused a lot of confusion amongst users, because they were changed to the user's local INI files. The local INI files, however, would be ignored when packaging a project, which means that local setting changes would not be applied to a packaged project and cause unexpected behavior. With this change the project settings will always save to the default INI file and will therefore be included in packaged projects. We will see how this works out for everyone, and we may change this behavior to something else if we can come up with a better, more intuitive workflow for project settings.
Upgrade Notes:
- If you have changes for Project Settings in your local INI files, you may want to 'Set as Default' in the Editor and then delete the local INI
- The default INI files (i.e. DefaultEngine.ini) of your project need to be writable. If you use source control, make sure you check out the corresponding files before changing project settings

Other Updates:
- The WidgetReflector is now in its own module as well. It will be converted to a plug-in later.
- The Public API of both Slate and SlateCore has largely been reorganized for better discoverabilty. More cleanup work is needed.
- Added a lot of missing API documentation and fixed existing ones. More and better documentation is needed.
- Removed dead code, fixed a couple things I stubled upon, and conformed to coding guidelines (NULL vs nullptr, line breaks, etc.)
Upgrade Notes:
- The Slate Remote Server is currently disabled - will be re-enabled shortly!
- If your module previously had a module dependency to 'Slate', it now also needs a PrivateModuleDependency to 'SlateCore' in its Build.cs file.
- If your module exposes in any of its Public header files types that are now declared in SlateCore, it needs a PublicModuleDependency to 'SlateCore'
- The ToolTip property type on SWidget has changed from SToolTip to IToolTip; change local variables to TSharedPtr<IToolTip> instead of TSharedPtr<SToolTip> where needed
- IToolTip is not a widget. If you need access to the actual widget that represents the tool tip, use IToolTip::AsWidget(); If you need access to the tool tip's content, use IToolTip::GetContentWidget()
Troubleshooting:
- After syncing to this changelist you may have to clean your /Engine/Intermediate/Build/ directory and rebuild your entire project
- If in your project you are getting linker errors for unresolved types that are now declared in SlateCore, you may be missing a dependency to 'SlateCore'
- If in the Engine code you are getting linker errors for unresolved types that are now declared in SlateCore, you may need to rebuild the entire Engine
