    Seriously, where were you a couple years ago when I was trying to learn the engine? This is 10 minutes of pure gold. I agree, there's a lot of content on Actors, editor interface, etc. Even if I knew some of this, you explain it very well. It didn't even occur to me to open the generated file, and when you look at it, a lot of things start to make sense. Congrats on another great video!

    Damn, NGL this is way better than epic games own introduction to the engine and cpp, which does not explain these crucial details. Thank you so much, this was the missing piece that made it click. Gonna check out your course out for sure. Thanks again!

    Reuben I have subscribed your channel and I am one of your 2000+ BR course students on Udemy... I also knew, from the very first section of the course, that you were possibly one of the best instructors available because you are always straight to the point without saying so much extra like a lot of other instructors. I had to rate you as a five-star instructor for that reason. However, I would greatly appreciate it if you could reply to some of the unanswered questions on Udemy. I understand that it can be difficult to answer each question and I don't expect you to answer to all of them but having to pay for the course and not getting answers for commonly-asked questions is a little bit disappointing. Will you please help?

    Hi, No video related question but why some times we put a uproperty() without any specifiers above variables(Iv seen this a lot with structs or for instance in your course i remember you put one above the replication key variable). It is one of the small things you kinda want to know after you spend some time with ue4 :)

    Hey cool topic. Please what's the point of adding dependencies to the uproject/uplugin files ? The only case I have to do it is when a plugin need depencies to another plugin, if I don't add it there in addition to the build file, it throws me a warning. But on my main project I didn't add any plugin reference to the uproject file, and it works fine. Also what are the pro and cons of using plugins vs modules ? I think everyone should use plugins as soon as possible, because you always want most of your stuff to be standalone and reusable and the fact that they have got their own content folder is awesome. I never used multiple 'core' modules in a single project, I guess it's good for very large projects when you need to split your main code base (like combat / campaign stuff). But to this day, all the code I wrote went into plugins, I'm only using projects to wrap everything up and add some game-specific assets.

    Hey Reubs. I want to target for PCVR and Quest, so very different scalability, but I don't want to build everything twice. I'm looking for some pointers as to how to automate all the settings that would change from one target to the other. This video gives me a lot of ideas, but if you have any resources you could point me to I'd appreciate it. Seems to be hard to find.

    Hey. Do you by any chance know how to make a NON-CAPSULE shaped character in unreal, but not have to write thousands of lines of code for the movement system? When you create a character in UE, you can use the MovementComponent, written by epic, which handles absolutely everything and would be basically impossible for someone to recreate on their own. However you MUST use a capsule-shaped character with it. You could also create a pawn instead of a character and use that as the player, but then you can't use the movementComponent. That's how i understand it anyway. Any ideas?

    Thank you for informative video! I have a bunch of external cpp/h files that was made by someone else. I would like to add them to my existing game project to be able to use the functionalities from those cpp/h files. Do you have a video showing a tutorial on how to add such external cpp/h files to an existing game project in Unreal Engine?

    Haha, I had the generated file epiphany last week. Was tryna track down all these macros to learn more, opened up a generated file, and entered the Unreal Header Tool rabbit hole. I feel almost dumb for ignoring what was right in front of me.

    Lacking a lot of answers. Public / Private dependency modules. What the Module & Build configurations are "actually" doing? Etc.. Difference between the Target & Build file how do they interact and what you can do with them. Like all one learned is the engine is using modules. Wish the tutorial went more into detail on these.
