How can I create a system where I select the location where my player will spawn on the map, like a battlefield?

There’s probably a dozen different ways. Here’s one:

  • create a Map widget with a Canvas and an Image
  • create Spawn Point Actors and them to the world at desired world transforms
    • have them create Marker Widgets and add them to the map’s canvas
    • have each Marker Widget dispatch a click
    • have the Spawn Point Actors listen to its widget’s dispatcher and spawn the player at its own location

Alternatively, have the Map Widget fetch spawn point actors and create widgets.
