container-build-routing

What problem does it solve?

You can route Unreal Engine builds from a Linux container to a Windows host, bridging cross-environment toolchains and keeping tooling inside the container while UE builds run on the host.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Transparent cross-host build routing: forwards build commands from the Linux container to the Windows host and returns real compiler output.
• Build queuing and synchronization: ensures only one UE build runs at a time, preventing conflicts and race conditions.
• Safe isolation and coordination: uses a host coordination mechanism to manage access without exposing the broader host environment.
• Use cases include CI pipelines and local development where UE builds must execute on Windows but supporting tooling runs in Linux containers.

Quick Start

Launch the container agent and run your standard Unreal Engine build command to trigger a host-assisted build.
