That's rough. I started in Unity also, but I quickly switched to Unreal because Unity is not it. Unity has more "learning" material than Unreal. But then again, that depends on the game you want to make and where you're looking. I haven't switched back to Unity cause Unreal is it. You need to know where to go to get the stuff you're looking for.

yeah this is just the full series uplaoded as 1 long video for people who just want to go through the whole thing at once's sake :) if youre followed along as they came out you wont find anything new here :)

This is a 3D inventory.

@@FPChris I was thinking of something more along the lines of like Resident Evil or rust

youtube is a little slow on processing this one, if you check back in a little bit it should be up to 4K :)

@@thegamedevcave Dude me and my eyes thank you earnestly 🤓 And in general let me say I thoroughly enjoy your work: there's something very laid back about your live sessions that make them quite compelling to watch (and obviously one learns tons watching them)

did some changes. The "index" is the position of the inventar array. 2 slots with the same index was incorect. Now I need to see how to disable left click when drag with right mouse button and the opposite.

Found it. Use both: 1. Get Effecting Button (left mouse button) With Is Mouse Button Down (Right Mouse Button) and revert them for the other case. 2. For escape button just add "Cancel Drag Drop" in "BP_ThirtPerson..." graph (After "Set Input Mode Game Only)" when you hide the Inv UI

I've watch this video for 3 days and made it all!

KZfaq is soooo slow with this one im sorry 😭

easiest way to store metadata like that is to add a map that uses string keys (or name keys, which is technically slightly more performant i believe) and add a struct with a few variable types on it. that way you can look for the string "ammo" and read.write to the int variable of that stuct. or you coudl store it all as just strings, i've heard some people do that too.. i'm not too sure if that's a good idea though. the best way though, which is a little more difficult to do, is to add in an extra Object slot to each itemslot, and if there is metadata you put a UObject that hold specific data in there. but that can get complicated pretty quickly and I am not even sure if you could get that all set up in just blueprint to be honest. So, easiest and most straightforward way would be to make that String-struct map where the struct simple has options for a few different types of data. whatever the case, metadata on items is a massive pain to deal with so if you can work around having to implement it (for instance by not having the ammo in the gun, but have the gun just use ammo from the inventory) that's probably a way less headache inducing way to do it

@@thegamedevcave thank you for the answer. Now I think about to create BaseItemActor and BaseDynamicData for saving mutable data and override function that adds this object to replicated. So, every class just can use this data object and not required to implement any converting to structure functions or casting from string. I think that this is overhead. But I don't know how to implement it easier. Also I really scared about 8th reimplementation of my item system after I learn the GAS. I heard something about AttributeSets but I'm not sure that I can use it for the inventory system. But I will use it for a gameplay item actor logic. Im frustrated.

if you want to store the inventory between play sessions you indeed to need to save & load it too, just like any data :)

@@thegamedevcave I mean you should make one for your audience.

@@WeirdGoat i have a video about saving and loading data, saving works the same with pretty much any data so i figure it's a little redundant to add a video about saving in each series i would make : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bNOfhcqYvsilkmw.html

I am pretty sure I show everything needed. Even having re recorded sections to make sure of that. Where are you having trouble?

@@thegamedevcave I fixed it, it was in split stack slot index before the last return node was It didn't make the split and return back to original slot work the slot index should be there but I don't think you did in the video

@@thegamedevcave and there was another thing but I forgot it already

@@thegamedevcave I had an Inventory System with Data Table but I am testing here It seems this one require less coding but there is a better way of coding this system

@@MasterKatSilver if you want to change anything about this code, you are of course free to change it to whatever you prefer
