Hello guys.
I made a little game some time ago using Blueprints and I’d like to transform everything in C++.
I need to know how to build a Delay function in C++, the equivalent of this:
I read something about making a separate thread for that…
Any help?
As far as I know:
static void Delay(float TimeSeconds, UWorld* World)
{
float EndTime = World->TimeSeconds + TimeSeconds;
for (; World->TimeSeconds < EndTime;);
return;
}
And call it like this:
// code
TheFunctionsClass::Delay([float delay], GetWorld());
// this will execute after delay
GEngine->AddOnScreenDebugMessage(-1, 5.0f, FColor::Green, "Delay passed!");
Hope this helps 
This doesn’t work properly.
The object, once picked up, doesn’t disappear and consequently won’t appear after X seconds. (respawn system)
I think the best way is to use a timer.
I’m afraid you won’t be able to pause code execution. That isn’t actually what the blueprint does, it will just wait for a certain time to pass before the next node gets to execute. You can do that in C++ with a timer, like Raikoh says.
Solved using a timer =)
