My God thank you, an actually helpful video, good looking on the gate function. While this didn't help to solve my current fireball dilemma, it does solve a much bigger issue I was having, and actually several other, and thinking about, it probably could fix my fireball... dilemma.. :D

This whole time I was thinking "overlapped actors/components" meant the things you wanted to do stuff to... But it was actually ignore. This misunderstanding caused me a lot of problems. Thanks for clearing it up!

Just found your channel. Glad to see there are still new videos. I have just tried putting these Overlap nodes in the level blueprint, casted to my character blueprint, but for some reason when I attack the dummy nothing will proc. Any ideas why?

I'm making a top down game similar to runscape/ultima... i needed a way for the character to know when it's near an object that's been interacted with, to move to that location and to stop moving>face actor>play animation... I've been using unreal for 7 years but took a year break while I finish an apprentiship, had some free time to explore the engine again and need refreshing :P

What if I have a second collision box on a single actor? How do I tell it to only generate an overlap event when the second collision box appears? Can I specify which collision box my third person character interacts with?

@LDT7Y 2 жыл бұрын

Is there any reason why an beginonactoroverlap node wouldn't trigger the command? I have a trigger volume saved in my persistent map that should load another level to show more trees in the distance when the character goes around a corner. I have a beginonactoroverlap command for the trigger volume (definitely spell the level name correctly!) Level map 1 loads automatically when the game starts, but when my character reaches the trigger volume nothing happens. Level map 2 doesn't load. It's as if it isn't there or it's ignoring it. I can't even get a print string to fire off on impact. The same thing happens with streaming volumes and trigger boxes. Is there an extra setting on the game I have to check to use triggers like this that I'm just too much of a noob to be aware of? I'm not using World Comp if that makes any difference.

@Leomerya12 Жыл бұрын

Matt, quick question, if you see this: I think overlap events should be on individual objects... not the player character. But my only concern is that this could end up being expensive. Is it expensive? (I treat overlap events like tick functions).

Hello. How can I trigger it with a car? I don't have a character, but I have a car.

@GaryParkin 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you so much. I think these should have been named differently. It's confusing that the Overlapped Actor is not the Actor that triggers it.

@MattAspland 3 жыл бұрын

No problem! And yeah I agree, some of the naming methods used in Unreal isn't ideal, but once you get used to it, it A) becomes muscle memory, and B) you just learn and know it. All in good time :)

@MattAspland 3 жыл бұрын

Don't worry about it at all, you can come when you need to, sometimes a break can do you some good as well. And that sucks loads, sorry that happened, is there no way to recover them, like backups or anything? And I can definitely look into that yeah :)

@OneManOnlyStudios 2 жыл бұрын

What about if you already starts the game inside this overlapping event and how to make it trigger by spawn too not only when you begin overlapping, but if you just spawned inside of the area, is there any way to do that? sorry my english

@user-fs6td9rn3d 11 ай бұрын

then you connect both "EventBeginPlay" and "OnActorBeginOverlap" to the blueprint you want.

@@MattAspland yeah man, i have a bunch actually lemme list them here 1. Genji's throwing shuriken, maybe you could do animations as well, I am currently trying to figure out how to animate properly 2. Lucio Wallrunning (maybe you could do horizontal and vertical) 3. Sliding on slopes like in apex legends, ghostrunner 4. Control abilities like shield, melee, levitation... Basically every ability from that game 5. Infinite procedural terrain generation 6. Tracers Recall ability 7. Spider Mans web swing 8. Re7 knife 9. Dash (all directions, forward, side, back) 10. Ground slam (like Mario or Control etc.) 11. Roadhogs Hook (Bring up enemies to yourself with a hook) 12. It might be pretty simple, but I cant undertstans how to implement Among Us tasks in ue4 13. Among Us map (turn off comms, elecrticity with cooldown etc.) 14. Among Us venting and/or killing 15. I dunno if you know how to make animation but I really want to make Zenyatta style animation, maybe dont do it yourself but just take ready animation and import it in fps scene, I wanna know how to play animations on input action. 16. Phasmoshobia items like Voodoo doll, UV light 17. Phasmoshobia ghost ai would be dope!! Kay I think its enough for now, I will write more when I have more ideas, Cheers!! Remember you are really awesome, good luck with your career!!

Hi :) I would be really gratefull if you coulld help me out with my problem. Well I have several trigger boxes on my level and if I played one of them it works perfectly fine, but then If I go to the next one it does't work at all, so I've tried this with all of them by avoiding the first one and going straigt to the 2nd one on the map and turnes out that this way the 2nd one works fine as well. but not one by one :( How do I fix this ? I am a begginer, maybe it is something simple but I just do not have enough expirience to figure out what is the issue.

@monikaszymczak3456 Жыл бұрын

Ok I think I have found my solution, I had to EDIT BLUEPRINT in the details of each trigger box, not just pu them all in the level blueprints. i dont know if this makes sense, but it works :D

So I have a beginoverlap on a lava mesh right and also a beginhit with the 3dcharacter which then call the event Death for the player to die..but for some reasons the player is able to walk on the lava a few seconds before eventually dying.. but if the player jump on it he dies automatically

@MattAspland 3 жыл бұрын

It sounds like it isn't updating quick enough, have you tried doing the code only off event begin overlap, and not with event hit? That might help. Let me know how it goes

@leszczynski3044 3 жыл бұрын

@@MattAspland Ok so I have tried that and the BeginOverlap doesnt works at all. It was only the on ComponentHit working. But it might be due to me being a novice. My blueprint lools like this * EventBeginOverlap -> CastToThirdPerson -> Event Death *EventBeginOverlap OtherActor -> CastToThirdPerson Object -> Event Death Target I think maybe I have to GET the player somewhere? 🤔 between beginoverlap and CastToThirdPerson

@MattAspland 3 жыл бұрын

Ah okay, is it maybe the event death which isn't working, maybe try putting some print strings after the event begin overlap to see if it is firing off.
