Hello UE4 Users,

I have a construction site and I would like to show it based on stages, so when user will click year 2020 he will see the current site. and when he clicks 2023 more building will appear.

An example is this video in minute 1:25 (51WORLD Smart City OS 4.0 - YouTube).

How to make it please ?

  • make a building blueprint with mesh references assigned to years:

  • make a stepping slider

  • slider tells the building to change its mesh according to the year

You may work in animations to make it pretty.

Does not need to be a slider, ofc. Buttons can call specific years but everyone likes sliding… :wink:
