@GisliKonradsson You could use TargetData to pass data from client to server. This is quite confusing at first but I've read a good post about it: x157.github.io/UE5/GameplayAb… You need to do some C++ but this is really nice after in BP

The GamePlayAbility system in #UnrealEngine is really powerful and by far the best way to do certain features but ohh man its unintuitive 🤦‍♂️ Can you guess whats going on here🤓? #gamedevelopment #IndieGameDev

@_benui For a moment I though Epic did it for real then saw your site, good one

@intaxTR @UnrealEngine Nice thanks!

@SecondAlexandre @UnrealEngine I'll perform benchmarks and post another tweet about it

Today I made BP2CPP work in Lyra. All Blueprints in the content browser are included in transpilation process. All I had to do was click a button in the editor, wait 30sec for BP2CPP to run, then ship the project. It worked like a charm 🥳 @UnrealEngine #UnrealEngine #UE5

@MartianDays Haha don't overthink this too much! In my game I do this with a Replicated SlotIndex with OnRep function -> When SlotIndex value changes the clients will have the OnRep function called and I just put the SetWeaponSlot inside.

@MartianDays I don't know how your game is made and this can be completly OK :)

@MartianDays What I mean is, if you call the Multicast SetWeaponSlot(2) for exemple, it will multicast this value to current clients. Now if a new client joins the game (after the multicast was executed) he will still have the base weapon slot number. This can cause quite the headache!

@FreyaHolmer If you look at it from the exponential form you see it clearly! cos(x) = (e^ix + e^-ix)/2 cos(i)=(e^i*i + e^-i*i)/2=(e^-1+e)/2=cosh(1)

was doing some math today - did you know the cosine of the imaginary unit is a real number? cos(i) = cosh(1) = (1+e²)/(2e) = 1.543080... and by extension: cos(ix) = cosh(x) sin(ix) = i sinh(x)

@OutoftheboxP B looks very clean. Nice!

Which one looks cooler?

@BP__Systems Hey, I was wondering if this system could be integrated with the Gameplay Ability System. I use GAS quite a lot.

Day 4 of the sale, don't miss out!

@OutoftheboxP Strangely I don't have the same values you have. Less than 80 GB on my side.

When did symbols grow to almost 100GB??

@_benui Thank you for the answers, I'll try it and go to your discord if it does not work. :)

@_benui I tried to register the Cheat using the GameFeatures "AddCheat" but it still does not work.

@_benui Hey ben, awesome tutorial! This works perfectly for my inventory system. The auto-complete works fine but I have an issue with the GiveItem command, I get "command not recognized". Since I never used the UCheatManagerExtension maybe I missed something, can you help me?

@QuodSoler Oh ok, so the HitReact is also a GA, I have never though about this, thanks!

@SecondAlexandre Usually its more that the abilities are triggered by the events with the Ability Triggers set to the corresponding events. ( A hit react for instance once activates cancels other abilities like attack, dodge, etc, if it was active already it could not do that easily )

And now basic VFX + Sounds are in! This gives the combat a more grounded fill, such small details can really make a difference. Next, weapon trails. ( For this video hitstop has been increased to 10f ) #unrealengine #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #indiegamedev

@QuodSoler So you have like running abilities that have a Wait Gameplay Event and you do the logic there?

@SecondAlexandre So really quite similar to what you described.

@QuodSoler (2/2) 3- In the GEEC: a- I check if I can damage the target b- I have a small state machine for the parry mecanic where I apply gameplay cues for parry/block c- I apply the damage modifers d- then handle Hit Reacts. I have a lot going on in the GEEC...

@QuodSoler (1/2) What is the attack flow you use? I use GAS and my flow is something like this: 1- A GA plays a montage with an ANS which makes a linetrace on the weapon. 2- I apply a GE with an execution calculation for weapon damage.

@QuodSoler I try to separate into plugins when I think I can reuse it later on another project. How do you store your plugins/modules when used by multiple projects?

When using Unreal, how much do you separate your own code in different modules or even different plugins?
