How To Interact In Unreal Engine 5 | How To Use Blueprint Interfaces In Unreal Engine 5 (Tutorial)

Hey guys, in today's video I'm going to be showing you how to create and use a blueprint interface. In this example, I will be creating one to interact with different blueprints as my player character.

  • @dreamingacacia
    @dreamingacacia Жыл бұрын

    I always name the blueprint interfaces as BPI_functionname. Generally I'd use it more similar to modular functions which could attach to specific actors that would use them. It's super useful and I have many blueprint interfaces in one project. I know that I can make many functions with just one interface, but it wouldn't make any sense when you're putting the damage system and the interact system at the same thing since not everything would use damage system and it's better to make them modular than trying to fit in a bunch of them together.

    I'd love to see you explain more about function blueprint(the one that purpose is to have a bunch of functions) and using game state. Right not if I'm not using the default game state, the characters cannot move at all(using thrid person template). OR alternatively something that helps me taking the variables that will affecting the entire game. I could try to save them to the player controller but in a more advance scenarios I'd need something higher than player controller which persisting throughout the game and not limited to the scene. Though I can just use level streaming and save everything on the master level's bp

    Check out how metasounds works! I just barely use them for playing a bunch of sounds together, but from what I've seen the new sound system has been made with this kind of interaction in mind. It works like a blueprint but with sounds and in a "event flow" flavour, meaning that you have more control on what fires off the sounds and how to transition from one to another

    If you hook up the false as well, it will end the loop as soon as one is false, which if that is before the true one - it will never reach true. The reason why it doesn’t continually loop is because as soon as it has gone through all the elements, the loop will end, instead of going back to the beginning of the array. I get you’re thinking though. Hope that makes sense!

Fps Game Single player only Blueprint only Input only (don’t use the blueprints that are for buttons like “e” blueprint) Sprinting that changes fov with stamina bar and jumping drains stamina Health with health bar Enemy ai with gun First person gun damage ai First person gun shooting cooldown with reloading after something like 10 bullets (inf ammo just has reload for a longer cooldown) Mantling and vaulting that drains stamina Crouching that decreases speed and fov but increases stamina recovery Main menu with settings that changes keybinds and graphics with a save and load game Swimming with oxygen bar that drains stamina Grappling that does not use stamina and increases fov Grenades that deal damage to player and enemy and causes camera shake Realistic camera bobbing (I will add more later on)
