Thanks for the tutorial!, just 2 fixes that i want to share for those having these problems, before starting the tutorial, turn on the plugin Procedurial Content Generation Framework, or you wont find the PCG component, and if your spline doesnt spawn any mesh, open the PCG_CopyPointsWithHierarchy, and connect the input Copy Points Target and copy points out node to the in, in the execute blueprint node, mine came unplugged for some reason, after that it should work.

A bit late to the party. I'm starting this tutorial and I can tell I'll get a lot out of it, so thank you in advance. A bit of a criticism though: I'm aware there is a time constraint but still, the issue with what you are doing, like a LOT of people doing tutorials, is lack of explanation for the actions you do. For example, "Now we are going to use a function XYZ and connect that to the result, and now we have a value of XYZ in result" - yes, obviously, but what exactly is XYZ and how does it relate to everything else? Just a pet peeve of mine I guess, but thumbs up anyway because the video is miles above most in quality AND explanation despite not being as in-depth as I personally would like^^, even the ones under paywall. And anyone who feels like me, get used to googling these unexplained pieces of code because otherwise you are just copy pasting and it will be a lot harder to actually learn to do things by yourself.

For me the water looks odd around the cube. It's because cube is not moving faster than water current, therefore it should not leave any trails behind - this is not a motorboat. In fact the water current is usually faster than the object because of its mass, therefore (IMHO) should be some foam etc rather happening in front of the cube. I'd watch some videos with drifting objects

Does it manage assets saved in a appointed computer directory or only those inside each specific unreal project?

No, but kinda yes. Once you have tagged assets in one Ue project they are searchable and usable in all your other UE projects! So this means you could add all your assets to one UE project and make the tagging once, then you got them all easily accessible as you described in all other UE Projects! 🙂

And Dash is one of them. Let`s say the TOP ONE of them. It saves so much time i would loose building up and debugging different systems loosing my nerves, and with this so many things at fingertips. So i can focus on the environment and the game instead of creating systems that can barely do the same. So when i put it on the paper, it is super worth the money. I mean it could be fixed price or even free. But then how would the devs work on more awesome tools? For some tools i will give up my " not paying subscriptions " ideal.
