Advanced FPS/TPS Sample Project with the GameplayAbilitySystem plugin

[DanimalsOnParade]

I've released a new GAS sample project showcasing advanced techniques with hitscan and projectile guns for a FPS/TPS.

https://github.com/tranek/GASShooter

Concepts covered

• Ability Batching
• Equippable weapons that grant abilities
• Predicting weapon switching
• Weapon ammo
• Simple weapon inventory
• Headshot bonus damage
• Reusable, custom TargetActors
• ReticleActors
• Play replicated montages on multiple Skeletal Mesh Components belonging to the AvatarActor in an ability
• Subclassing FGameplayEffectContext to send additional information to GameplayCues
• Character shield that drains before health is removed by damage
• Item pickups
• Single button interaction system. Press or Hold 'E' to interact with interactable objects including player reviving, a weapon chest, and a sliding door.

This looks very useful! Having wanted to build a weapons based ability systems game for awhile this is a good learning document! Would you accept contributions or is it purely solo?

No video, sorry. There's just lots of well commented code for people to read through, play with, and cross reference against my GAS documentation https://github.com/tranek/GASDocumentation
