Composure page images are not broken for me. It could be a cache issue when it’s happening. It could also be a temporary files on system issue, in which those links to the page images get broken somehow, or the temporary files have a bad reference from a particular browser / browser settings. Another thing I noticed, but not a big deal unless it’s perceived to be I guess: “…or how a shot it set up.” change “it” to “is” in the second paragraph at the top of the Composure page… There’s a number of typos / grammar / spelling errors in the docs, and I usually know what is meant, but it may be a problem in browser-based translations or other cases. ---

The Unreal documentation, in general, is very unevenly fleshed-out. I feel like 2/3rds of the pages I land on just have something like “An object class” as a description (in this case, that gem is from UClass), then just a bunch of lists of function names that you could also find by pressing TAB in your IDE. Its definitely better than nothing, but it is also a little frustrating ---

**This is specific feedback on the pages regarding Delegates, Dynamic Delegates, Multicast etc. etc. :** I think there might be a small issue with nomenclature here, unless I am really bad at understanding your text and/or your logic. If I’m not mistaken the documentation goes back and forth and uses the terms “delegate function” and “binding function” interchangeably. Or just to be more specific, I suspect that in a lot of cases where you want to say (and probably - no hopefully! - mean) “binding function” you instead say “delegate function” which is rather confusing. So a handful of suggestions: 1. Perhaps another read-through to make sure you are saying exactly what you mean to say and just make the language clearer? 2. Some visual schematics would definitely help and make things clearer for beginners. This is a dense topic! You are essentially trying to hack through encapsulation and abstraction with these things… 3. I suspect (like myself) that perhaps people have understood a little bit better the Blueprint equivalents: event dispathers etc. Perhaps a visual again compare and contrast type page that shows the equivalents of the two approaches might solidify learning? Anyway, my humble opinion. Thank you! ---

Hiya! New user here; I have a fair amount of experience with Unity, so something stood out to me in part of the docs comparing Unity and Unreal. It’s in this page: [Unreal Engine for Unity Developers | Unreal Engine 5.2 Documentation](https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/GettingStarted/FromUnity/index.html) So in the section labeled “UE4 Blueprint Classes can be extended,” there’s a paragraph which says this: [] In Unity, you would implement this by creating many different GameObject prefabs: one for Dragon, one for Grue, and so on. Now, say you want to add some new functionality to all monsters, such as the ability to speak using your new Speak Component. In Unity, you have to go and update all 10 prefabs to individually copy and paste the new functionality into it. [/] So… yes, this had been the only way to do things for a long time. But that’s actually changed! Aside from being able to nest prefabs, it’s also possible to make “Prefab Variants,” which work pretty much as inheritance. I could create Monster prefab, and then make variants called Dragon, Grue, etc. A modification to Monster will trickle down into the rest of the monsters, as it would in Unreal. It’s also possible to override settings coming from parent prefabs. Now, I haven’t worked with Unreal’s blueprints yet, so I don’t know how they compare. Unity’s prefab overhaul has introduced some odd kinks into the system. (I’ve had some deeply nested prefabs for UI elements in Unity and it can get a little out-of-shape if I accidentally change the base prefabs from within the top-level prefabs.). I have no idea whether Unreal struggles with these same issues or if they’ve been solved. ---

Hi. I haven’t been using the site for long but definitely ran into a couple of things. The search function is not great - for example, if I go to online learning -\>home and select all then search for “virtual reality” it brings up 3 courses. If I search for VR it brings up 5 courses. However, if I go into “Unreal Academy” learning path there is a really good VR best practices deck and video which was exactly what I’m looking for. Likewise, I need to switch to the documentation section to access some material. This means I can’t really depend on the search tools, or don’t feel I can - but instead need to hunt through a few places. This is not ideal. that said, the materials are good and the existence of this is great. I’ve done a few advanced classes but was interested in doing more design/blueprinty stuff and so I did the quick start for designers. It’s a tiny bit out of date for 4.24 - just the lighting details stuff but figured I’d let you know. cheers and thanks ---
