What is the node or logic for calling the Apply Damage node in a loop? Thanks in advance
Could you clarify? Because it sounds as if were looking for the Loop node. Do you want to make the damage tick - be applied, let’s say, 5 x per second? A loop node will not help you here.
Sorry if I expressed myself wrongly, I mean that when my character is in contact with capsule collision always receive damage
This is still unclear. What does always mean? I assume you mean continually - is that so? How often then?
It’s not a good idea to base on a framerate since different end user machines would apply varying amount of damage. The most standard way is to use a Timer, if you fire it 30x per second, it will be pretty much indistinguishable from continues damage. You could even apply if once per second and interpolate the result.
yes i mean continually, but i will try to set a 30-second timer like you said.
Once again Thank You
- it’s not safe to rely on == with floats. Try:
Ideally, also check it it’s below zero.
-
I am a bit confused by the script, though. You seem to keep health in a character but attempt to destroy the BP you’re showing.
-
also, you’re casting the Controller to Pawn (?), which makes no sense and will never work - the cast probably fails - could you double check?
-
if this script is already in the Actor we want to destroy once its health goes below the threshold, there’s no need to cast, just call the function directly
-
and lastly, you call it on Begin Play - how is this supposed to count health if it only happens once, when the actor is spawned. Did you mean to hook it to a node that triggers when damage is received?
So yeah, lots of things are going on that I do not understand. Under regular circumstances, the player character would have something along the lines of implemented:
I am ignoring the Damage Type pre-processor which should be probably involved in all this. It might be too early for this.
