Able Ability System Info and Support Thread

You can have CalculateDamageForActor call a Blueprint Library Function or some damage calculation you create and pass all the info to and then simply return a value - that would allow you to keep all your damage calculations in one place. I avoid using the FDamageEvent scheme because it feels fairly limited (radial vs point) and I only piggy back off it since so many people use the TakeDamage callback.

The actors not cleaning up may be due to the blueprint compile needing it to clear our the actor and recreate it. Closing the editor does just that. I’ll look into that.

Aiming for the next update for Able to hit around the 13th. I had LASIK done on Friday so I’m avoiding the computer (beyond this quick post) and then I’ll be out at Playstation DevCon all week, so the earliest I can get some work done is likely Friday night.

Cheers!

Good point on the library function. Congrats on the LASIK and have fun at the Con!
