global Variables?

[Sunsetlettuce93]

Can you cast/share the value of a boolean variable over different blueprints.

for example: i want to have a boolean that says whether the player has an item or not and i wan’t to use the value from that variable in a different blueprint.

Thanks,

Yes, you can use ‘direct communication’

Direct Communication Blueprints for Artists (Unreal Engine 5)

Or you can just put the variable somewhere else, like the game instance, they everything can see it.

But, a heads up for later, for good programming, only the player should know when the player has a variable set or not…

Yes, but you need a reference to that other object (blueprint instance) to read the variable from.

Note: Blueprints are classes, and the Actors (and other objects) created from those Blueprints are instances (objects.) This is an important distinction – you never actually run “the blueprint,” you run “some actor created from a blueprint.”
