2D 1hit death blueprint

Hi
New to UE4 and I’m making a Donkey Kong arcade clone for school and I’m having trouble figuring out the blueprint to kill mario when he is hit with a barrel. Can anyone help with this?

Well you obviously need some kind of death handle inside of your character (for that animation) and cleanup in there.

For the Barrel itself it’s pretty straight forward. “Event OnHit” “Apply Damage” to the “Other Actor” from “Event Hit”.

On your character “Event AnyDamage” → Death.

Got it thanks.
