before we continue with the video if you

00:00:07

like what i'm doing here on this channel

00:00:09

please consider subscribing it helps the

00:00:11

channel a lot

00:00:12

anyway let's get back to the video

00:00:15

welcome back to my create an rpg series

00:00:18

in this episode we will be continuing to

00:00:19

work on our ability system for the mage

00:00:22

in particular

00:00:24

so let's just jump into it from where we

00:00:26

were last which was that we set up some

00:00:28

apex events for us to react to where we

00:00:31

could actually

00:00:32

say that the the spell is uh starting to

00:00:35

happen

00:00:37

now

00:00:38

uh going to our abilities

00:00:40

and

00:00:42

opening up the base class i can actually

00:00:44

close everything else here

00:00:46

this is the event that we we created

00:00:48

over here the animation apex event and

00:00:50

we demonstrated how easy it is to add to

00:00:53

our

00:00:54

existing montage by adding it to a

00:00:55

montage for the slash

00:00:57

now we want to create it for the mage

00:00:59

which has a few different animations so

00:01:03

going to one of them let's take the

00:01:06

standing magic attack this one

00:01:09

and let's say we want to have it uh

00:01:13

use the spell over here so we'll right

00:01:15

click at the notify bpi apex ability

00:01:17

notifier so

00:01:19

uh we also actually let's remove that my

00:01:22

bad this is not a montage this is an

00:01:25

animation that i opened up wasn't it

00:01:27

yes it is so let's create a montage from

00:01:30

it first

00:01:31

you can add

00:01:33

these

00:01:35

notifies to animations as well

00:01:38

just know then that if you were to have

00:01:43

a notify in here like

00:01:46

like this like if if we just add it

00:01:49

properly first so somewhere there

00:01:51

add notify

00:01:53

and if you also have added it to your

00:01:57

normal animation the montage uses all of

00:02:00

the notifies and things that you have in

00:02:03

the animation as well so

00:02:05

things would happen twice then

00:02:06

essentially

00:02:08

which may be what you're after but

00:02:10

probably not i'm going to assume

00:02:12

anyway so we have the apex ability

00:02:14

notifier there

00:02:16

and now we want to make use of this by

00:02:19

creating abilities we go to abilities

00:02:22

and we create a child

00:02:24

child blueprint class we'll call this

00:02:26

one bp underscore

00:02:29

let's call it fireball

00:02:32

okay so starting off we need to set on a

00:02:34

montage which is going to be our

00:02:36

standing magic attack like so

00:02:39

so that's the first part

00:02:41

now the next part is we want to actually

00:02:44

do something when this happens so to

00:02:46

have the debug available or to see that

00:02:49

this is working we'll add the

00:02:52

apex event to our graph

00:02:55

and we'll say

00:02:58

print

00:03:01

apex exclamation marks

00:03:04

so

00:03:07

next step is we need to actually have

00:03:08

this ability available to our character

00:03:10

so even though this character is a

00:03:11

warrior

00:03:13

we will add it to his abilities anyway

00:03:17

uh so the animations won't be

00:03:19

100

00:03:21

awesome because it's a little bit of a

00:03:22

mismatch when it comes to its locomotion

00:03:24

and stuff but that's fine it will do

00:03:27

some uh blending between them so it

00:03:29

shouldn't be too awful

00:03:31

actually let's remove the multi slash so

00:03:34

we have

00:03:36

a fireball on our second ability which

00:03:39

is

00:03:41

let's see here was it the q key

00:03:46

and

00:03:49

r key okay that's good

00:03:52

so let's see what happens when we try

00:03:55

this out so we play and we press the r

00:03:57

key

00:03:58

we do the animation and we type out apex

00:04:00

afterwards

00:04:01

everything is looking fine so far okay

00:04:06

um

00:04:07

now

00:04:08

what we want to achieve in this is

00:04:11

we want to spawn a projectile

00:04:15

so

00:04:18

we could become actually let's why do we

00:04:20

keep this let's remove these that's

00:04:24

we could be spawning a projectile

00:04:25

directly in here if we wanted to if we

00:04:28

want to have it more organized like

00:04:32

things are more

00:04:34

centered around what they're actually

00:04:35

doing we could instead

00:04:38

distribute this

00:04:40

action to our combat system and say that

00:04:42

the ability generates uh

00:04:45

a projectile but the actual combat

00:04:48

um

00:04:50

component is what what creates and sends

00:04:53

it out spawns or sends it out

00:04:54

essentially it's a matter of your

00:04:57

preference of course how you want to

00:04:59

organize your things but

00:05:01

what we could do then is we know that

00:05:03

this is happening we can get

00:05:06

owner

00:05:09

and we can say

00:05:11

get component by class

00:05:14

and then we can say we want to have the

00:05:20

combat

00:05:21

component

00:05:23

and then we can have something that

00:05:24

spawns the projectile but we currently

00:05:27

don't have anything like that so let's

00:05:28

start off with doing that

00:05:31

we open up our combat

00:05:33

component

00:05:35

which now has a lot of comments here in

00:05:37

case you didn't follow the commenting

00:05:39

video

00:05:42

and let's see here is

00:05:47

i feel it might have actually become

00:05:48

slightly harder to navigate in this with

00:05:51

all the comments but

00:05:53

that might just have been me putting up

00:05:55

four comments essentially

00:05:57

so we have a damage taken we have a

00:05:59

begin play we have

00:06:01

some random things here what we want to

00:06:03

have is essentially

00:06:04

a let's create a custom event for this

00:06:08

and let's call this

00:06:10

[Music]

00:06:11

spawn

00:06:17

fire projectile

00:06:24

and

00:06:25

this is what we will be calling from our

00:06:26

class then so going back to fireball we

00:06:28

can now say

00:06:30

fire projectile

00:06:35

but we don't have any projectiles

00:06:37

created so let's get working on that

00:06:41

so let's go to

00:06:44

where should we place the projectile i

00:06:46

wonder

00:06:49

let's place it under abilities for now

00:06:51

and see if we have a better place for it

00:06:53

later

00:06:54

so we'll create a blueprint which we'll

00:06:57

call a

00:06:59

actor and we'll call this bp projectile

00:07:03

base

00:07:06

opening that up

00:07:07

this is what we have we removed the tick

00:07:10

and begin overlap and stuff

00:07:15

what we want to do first is we want to

00:07:16

have some kind of a

00:07:19

well first of all we want to add

00:07:20

projectile uh movement to it so that

00:07:23

component is available here in addition

00:07:25

to that we want to create a component

00:07:27

that represents our projectile just so

00:07:29

we have it visually seen so we can add a

00:07:32

static mesh

00:07:35

and as a mesh i guess we can

00:07:39

something like a sphere make sense for a

00:07:41

fireball we do not have a sphere

00:07:46

we do not seem to have a sphere

00:07:51

yes that's

00:07:52

not available unless you have the

00:07:54

starter content i wonder

00:08:03

let's just hack up our static mesh um

00:08:07

so going here under basics for place

00:08:09

actors we can get a sphere like so we

00:08:11

can

00:08:12

click the little lock so it keeps its

00:08:15

dimensions we can say 0.1

00:08:18

that's maybe a little bit small let's

00:08:20

try

00:08:22

0.3

00:08:23

that looks like an okay fireball i guess

00:08:27

and then we can just right click on this

00:08:29

converts here to static mesh

00:08:32

we can place it

00:08:34

meshes is fine we'll just call it

00:08:36

static mesh

00:08:40

like so in meshes okay

00:08:44

now we have a mesh here

00:08:47

and this one will not have any collision

00:08:50

so we'll create some simple collision

00:08:59

not entirely sure it added it to be

00:09:02

honest let's see if

00:09:08

there we go

00:09:10

that looks somewhat

00:09:14

off center

00:09:20

weird

00:09:23

it seems to be moving as well as we move

00:09:25

the camera which is also very weird

00:09:38

okay now it is inside of the mesh which

00:09:41

is something i guess let's scale it up a

00:09:43

little bit so it's slightly larger

00:09:46

so we can see it

00:09:48

that should do fine for us i think so

00:09:50

let's just save that and close that down

00:09:54

and now we say we want to have a static

00:09:56

mesh of some sphere

00:09:59

like so

00:10:01

and now we have our sphere so this is

00:10:03

what we will be using as our projectile

00:10:05

essentially

00:10:07

we can move this one to our default

00:10:08

scene root and we can so it overwrites

00:10:11

their root over there

00:10:13

it's good

00:10:17

so let us see let's go to our predictive

00:10:19

movement and we may want to set initial

00:10:23

speed is zero that's not very fast

00:10:26

we might want to change that but before

00:10:29

we do that we want to at least set the

00:10:30

gravity scale to zero because these are

00:10:32

going to be fireballs that are not

00:10:34

affected by gravity you might want to

00:10:35

have gravity in your game that's

00:10:36

perfectly fine

00:10:38

for me i will not

00:10:40

um so let's keep it like this for now

00:10:43

so this means it will be spawning it

00:10:45

will not be moving because it has zero

00:10:47

speed and it will

00:10:49

uh

00:10:50

not be affected by gravity

00:10:52

that's fine for now let's go to our

00:10:55

fireball and say

00:10:57

no we go to our

00:11:01

combat component and then we say

00:11:04

spawn actor

00:11:06

from class and we say we want to have

00:11:09

the projectile base

00:11:13

and we can

00:11:15

expand the

00:11:16

transform so it will be spawning in zero

00:11:18

zero zero

00:11:21

[Music]

00:11:23

all of this is fine for now i believe so

00:11:26

let's

00:11:27

try this out and see what happens so

00:11:31

we press the r key we do our ability

00:11:34

we don't know that something has

00:11:36

happened but if you check over here in

00:11:38

the [Music]

00:11:40

world outliner we can see that the

00:11:41

fireball has been spawned

00:11:43

and if we eject from here and we go to

00:11:47

where did he go there we go and press f

00:11:51

no that doesn't center it

00:11:55

is this where it is there it is

00:11:58

that seems to be a much larger fireball

00:12:01

than what i expected

00:12:03

they did not take the scale into

00:12:05

consideration for the static mesh i

00:12:06

wonder

00:12:08

okay so first of all uh this one we need

00:12:10

to get rid of because we don't want this

00:12:13

one

00:12:15

so that's fine um

00:12:19

but at least the fireball spawned now we

00:12:21

can say

00:12:25

let's do this a little bit hacky because

00:12:27

this doesn't really matter here we would

00:12:29

this is just for

00:12:31

visualization right now

00:12:33

um

00:12:36

set actor

00:12:38

scale

00:12:41

3d

00:12:43

and let's set all of these to 0.3

00:12:51

so

00:12:54

compile run let's do that again let's

00:12:56

see

00:12:58

we will eject we will check the fireball

00:13:02

it is smaller that looks good

00:13:05

um that will be fine for our visual

00:13:07

representation i guess we can

00:13:11

can make it look a little bit fancy i

00:13:13

guess if we have some material that

00:13:14

looks

00:13:17

cool which we don't seem to have

00:13:21

i guess we'll keep a white ball for now

00:13:25

yeah

00:13:26

so next part will be to actually

00:13:30

spawn this in the right locations have

00:13:32

it move and things like that

00:13:35

sorry about that i accidentally closed

00:13:37

down the the engine

00:13:39

anyway

00:13:40

all that i guess we can start off on the

00:13:42

next episode i think this is good for

00:13:44

now so hope to see you in the next

00:13:46

episode

00:13:47
