Am trying to build a serious game, I was using Unity but I struggeled a lot with the coding. I been adviced to switch my design to unreal engine and use blueprint language as it’s easier for people who has no experience with coding language. I would like to know how long it would take to build a a game system using blueprint? I consider my self as a quick learner. as well my deadline for the application is on August, 2018.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,

Thats complex question, it depends on what you want to make and what you will need to add in to the engine with your blueprint code

If you search for a C++ Multiplayer Template you can look at my Forum post.

PS: Stay tuned I am working on a Blueprint Template that have the same funktionality then the C++ one.

it really does depend on a lot of factors like what systems your looking to implement and how many. theres also the learning of the code itself and what nodes there are. i suppose it may be easier for you is you already know some coding and moreso if you already know some c.

to make the simplest answer the minimum to make a multiplayer game from scratch is a few hours and thats if you follow something like the tutorial from epic. this type of thing will have limited functionality though.

thank you for your answer. Am trying to build a simulation system, and it has interactive design part which it’s the game :slight_smile:

Thank you for your answer. Am designing for (Oculus) headset. I started with unity as it simple to export to any other platform like android and IOS, but I struggeled a lot with the coding, any advice?

advise huh. well that all depends on the subject at hand but in general i wouldnt start in on a major project if your just learning the engine i would take a little time and do a few tutorials to familiarize yourself with the features and the visual scripting if thats what your looking to use. make a few small things before moving on to the bigger more involved stuff. also you probably know this already but google is your best friend.
