If someone is still struggling with the stamina widget error when respawning (pending Kill or Garbage) then go to stamina widget blueprint/get percent or use the error link to get there. Then replace "char REF" to "Cast to (your character)" and to object line use "get player character". Worked for me atleast.

Note! If you add this to a collision box you must keep the scale at 1, 1, 1 or it may not work or even distort the player scale. Also, make sure it's not too close to a wall, object or the floor/ground. I've just experienced this and it was quite funny to see my character go flatter and wider. 😄 I'm sure there is a way to fix this too.

I am having this exact issue, however I am creating a 2D Game and the box is near the background. I have not changed the size of the Box Collision. Did you ever find a fix to this?

@PatrickTheDM 10 ай бұрын

@@dylanbello-gamedev5923 I've not done any work with 2D, but as long as you have it scaled 1, 1, 1 it should work. Maybe on 2D the x or y for the location need to be set at 0? That's a guess. Heck, even try the scale of x or y at 0 to see what it does.

@DatTherianCyn Ай бұрын

I hate to be a year late, and I doubt that you're still wanting to know, but all you have to do is put your delay right after simulating physics and destroy the actor after that delay. The rest of the tutorial should apply just the same beside that

Okay, so I've followed this tutorial twice now and I'm still having a Problem. I've done this step by step but I'm still getting this error here: Blueprint Runtime Error: "Attempted to AccessBP_ThirdPersonCharacter_C_0 Via Property of Char_REF, but BP_ThirdPersonCharacter_C_0 is not Valid (pending Kill or Garbage)". And then it tells me where everything is. It works fine before I try to kill the player, but when I put in the respawn, Unreal spits out this error. Help?

Tip: If you have widgets with transparency to them, the more you die, the more the opaque it gets. This is because it is stacking them on top of each other each time eventbeginplay is used, so remove the widgets on event destroyed to stop this

@suryakamalnd9888 9 ай бұрын

for anyone who are wondering how to remove it, when you use the widget, say a game over screen, when you use the event on clicked, at the end use the remove from parent node.. that will destroy the game over screen when you click respawn.. this is cauz, if you have something like a health bar UI, that wont be removed..

@duckproductions2238 7 ай бұрын

Y’all, I had the problem where the health bar didn’t go back to full when the player respawned. Exiting the player - showed me error codes. This is what worked for me: instead of destroying the actor, I teleported them back to spawn as if they had died and respawned. Also set their health to max. That seems to work. With destroy actor it spawns a new version of the third person character, labeled 1 instead of 0, and that seemed to freak it out somehow. Don’t know how to fix it with destroy actor, but using teleport worked for my purposes.

@maliapaffenroth8335 2 ай бұрын

Thank you so much!! I replaced destroy actor with Teleport, set the dest location and dest rotation = to my PlayerStart point. I then set health to max by getting my health variable and adding 100 to it. I was still having an issue where I couldn't take any damage when I respawned so I set my Is Dead? variable to false after adding the health and now I have a proper respawn. Thank you for posting your fix!
