as the title says
i am open to suggestions

how do you keep it from quickly becoming a complete mess of spaghetti?
how do you organise something like this?

thanks

hi @tegleg

My idea would be an actor component maybe?
Inside would be all the rules and variables for each mission
You would need to set a standard that encompasses every quest and mission type you require, so will be quite complex.

then on you player have an array of said actor components as a variable and create and add them and remove them as required

then add code to your actor to get current quest and switch quests etc

thanks
actor components is an interesting idea
the player blueprint is kind of overwhelmingly complex already so maybe put all that in some kind of manager actor on the map

either attach them to the player BP or store them in a variable in the player BP
might not be the only way, but its my approach first out my head :rofl:

Hi Tegleg,

I’m reminded of this Asset Pack in the “Permanently Free Collection”

I’ve never implemented it, but it should at least give an example of a way to organize this system.
