easiest way to make my Score widget add 1 every time My BP_ball Hits The BP_Goalpost.

For a simplistic approach without further considerations :

  • in ScoreSystem, get a reference to the ball using node GetActorFromClass and with BP_Ball as a filter. Store the result in your “As BP Ball” variable.

  • In GoalPost, connect OtherActor pin to the cast.

Should be enough to make it work. If you are still getting errors from the widget saying “accessed none while trying to read As BP Ball”, try adding a delay (1-2seconds) in widget Construct before calling GetActorFromClass and storing the result.
