4.19 support is live

[Ministelis]

Thanks Ali!!

Unfortunately it is not installing to the engine, when I select 4.19 and click install, nothing happens.

Ministelis Try restarting the Epic Launcher (logout and login again). If it doesn't work, remove the plugin from 4.19 engine (click the "Installed plugins" link below the engine version and click Remove). Then re-install it

Very early progress of the DungeonFlow editor



I have the UI done where you can define high level flow. There will be many nodes in the design graph like Cluster node to create a group of rooms, Platform nodes to create a single room etc and some ability to theme override each of them selectively

The Result Graph shows the 2D view of a random dungeon that respects the specified constraints in the Design graph. I haven't worked on the algorithm yet. I'll have more in the coming days

Can I ask what happened to this feature? It looks great! Also, why was the paper2d work not implemented. Both of these would be very handy with what I'm working on.

GruntosUK I'll get to that in the future

Fixed a bug that was causing DA to pick volumes from all open worlds, rather than the existing world the Dungeon actor belongs to. This was causing the theme editor's viewport to pick up theme override volumes that were placed in the level editor's scene

[Ali Akbar]

Added a flag in the theme override volume that lets you fall back to the base theme if you have not defined any meshes under a certain marker

This is useful if you want to selectively override certain aspects of the base theme, without re-implementing the other details in the overridden themes

Flaccid Laser try setting the NumCells to 0 in the configuration

Thanks Ali Akbar for your response, sorry for the late reply.

I have already tried that. I set NumCells to 0, but sadly, it creates corridors to bind the rooms. I'd like to be able to create "Isolated" rooms with the Paint Mode.

I have attached a video that shows what I mean: https://youtu.be/KXLe2YKHbtA

Please, let me know if you need further information.

Thanks in advance.

Hi. I'm new here and a have a question, how do i do a selection BP to select just the middle of the room?

[Tyr-el]

Hi,
Does the plugin allow you to keep the positions of the rooms fixed and only change the corridors?
Thanks

Hi Ali,

Dungeon Architect fails to compile on PS4 with 4.19. You just need to add:

#include "Engine/World.h"

to SceneProviderCommand.h because the AddActor function template uses FActorSpawnParameters.

Hello Ali. wondering if You can make a tutorial on using city builder with larger buildings and putting together city scenes vs residential. would love to do this in Dungeon Architect vs level streaming. You sent me a message in October saying You were going to put one up for me. Still waiting patiently. Thanks for the awesome plugin and excellent work! Would love to have Dungeon levels streaming vs the ones I'm building. Such a brilliant plugin cant wait to really use it like I want.

I being working with your Snap Map builder and have an issue in editor when rotating the (actor/connector) through the UI input fields. If you rotate using toolbar all is good but if you input a Z rotation and child components disappear. I have a similar issue if you do an undo action. Have you seen thing behavior?

[Sooth]

Issue is this is missing call to Super::PostEditChangeProperty in SnapMapConnectionActor.cpp

void ASnapMapConnectionActor::PostEditChangeProperty(struct FPropertyChangedEvent& e) {
FName PropertyName = (e.Property != NULL) ? e.Property->GetFName() : NAME_None;
if (PropertyName == GET_MEMBER_NAME_CHECKED(ASnapMapConnectionActor, ConnectionComponent)) {
ConnectionComponent->BuildConnection();
}
}

it should be

void ASnapMapConnectionActor::PostEditChangeProperty(struct FPropertyChangedEvent& e) {
FName PropertyName = (e.Property != NULL) ? e.Property->GetFName() : NAME_None;
if (PropertyName == GET_MEMBER_NAME_CHECKED(ASnapMapConnectionActor, ConnectionComponent)) {
ConnectionComponent->BuildConnection();
}
Super::PostEditChangeProperty(e);
}
