I need help with the tutorial "Creating a Pause Menu"

Hi everyone.

I need help with a specific tutorial:

I did follow every step but I’m stuck at number 8.

This is what I have:

I don’t know how to add “Target HUD Reference”. Can someone explain me step by step how to do that?

I’m sitting here for 3 hours googling but I can’t find a solution. I would love to attach more pictures but the forum isn’t allowing me as a new user to do so.

You need to work on the previous tutorials so you can have all the variables in place. The tutorials are listed at the top of the page on the tutorial page you have posted.

Specifically the “HUD reference” is a variable which keep tracks of the widget you need to remove.

You need to make a reference to the widget you want to remove. You can do this by making a variable and setting it to “Self” in the widget BP

In the FirstPersonCharatcer BP, make the variable and set it to whatever type your HUD is.

After doing so, set the reference by getting the “Self” node like so.


Now you’ll be able to use your function properly.

I hope this helped!
