NOTICE:
If you’re in 4.14 or above and you migrated over the character stats kit to a new character/gamemode there might be an error triggered. As of 4.14 Game Mode Base is the new default game mode, for some reason this is causing issues with the player controller begin play function as well as other core functionalities.
If you are experiencing this issue try to print string after the player controller begin play, if this doesn’t call you will need to do the following:
Create a new function in the player controller called “Create Widget”. That function needs as output the Stats UMG variable. This function should be called after the begin play of the player character’s cast to the player controller. In the function create the widget and store it. Images below.
