Also implemented the ability for grass and enemies to drop resources The loot table can easily be defined for each enemy or object in a Data Asset

Different resource pickups are now working and being displayed properly in the inventory Money, Bombs and Arrows all reuse the same system because in the end they're all just resources with a number we have to keep track off

Prototyped the ability to switch between different items through the Inventory Menu Here I'm going between the bow and boomerang

bro just drop it Not sure what you're trying to achieve

Hahaha thank you so much man, I'm glad my stuff is helping. Yeah so many people still can't believe it!

Yeah there's always more to learn for sure! If I look back at a project I made 5 years ago now I can't believe some of the things I've done😅 You can always do a refactor at some point if things get too messy

Wait xD you got me concerned now man If you're copying around macros then you probably don't have your inheritance set up correctly, should be using components or a function library

Did you know that you can copy functions between different Blueprints and even Unreal Projects? Input and output parameters will also be copied over, so this is extremely useful for things like a nested UI where you have to pass values through multiple layers

I hope that whoever thought this was a good idea steps on a Lego

You're probably one of the 0.1% of Unreal users who knew this 😂

In the video it's UE 5.6 but I just booted up 4.27 and it also works there with tooltip and all. This might have been there all the way back in UE 4.0 IDK😂

I've been using Unreal Engine almost every day for the past 8 years and just now I found out you can right click a variable to turn it into an array type... This saves you the trip of going all the way to the details panel on the top right

Thank you :D

This month marks the 5 year anniversary of my YouTube channel and also the first time I tried making 2D and 2.5D games with Unreal! Thank you all so much for making it possible :) I put together a video summing up all the projects I worked on: youtu.be/W-OASeAf5So

Dragging yourself around the map by holding the middle mouse button already made this project feel so much more legit... and it only took about 5 minutes to implement

I'm finally done with the walk animation and first set of clothes for the male characters

My little passion project has finally come to the point where I replace the mannequin by picking a random skin for each Visitor

Recently I've been using the built in sprite importer that comes with PaperZD quite a lot. For non-aseprite based workflows it saves so much time to have presets for cutting up the sprite sheet!

It doesn't come with these sprites though, I drew them. You'd have to use the built in set or draw your own
