I started my first game thank to everyone's help, and now want to help others as well

Thanks to other great youtubers, and people here on the forums, I got a good base for things, and have since improved and implemented new features that I wanted. I want to continue helping others just as I have been helped so if anyone wants to know how any of my things are setup, and would like a tutorial for it, please don’t hesitate to let me know. :slight_smile:

I think i know how you can fix the “not updating stats bug” you mentioned @ 3:50. Do you have made an “update stats” function and where is it located ? In case you didnt fix that awready…

I had pretty much the same problem with my skill tree where the skillpoints didnt update in real time but i had to close and reopen it to update them just like yours… So must be the same problem…

Yeah I fixed it just after I recorded it. It was as simple as calling the function from my stats component from the inventory component on equip / unequip. Basically Get Owner > Get Component by Class (My Stats component) > Update Stats. :slight_smile:

I appreciate the help though. :smiley:

I really like your inventory system and how you can equip stuff by holding ctrl key which is a really nice one. Did you follow any tutorial on this one ? And btw good luck on your project it seems pretty solid for a start.

I did follow a tutorial at the start for the inventory, but then I had to make major changes to accommodate an item stats system, and how I wanted things to be stored. Now it has the same base but many other differences. The ctrl system I have implemented myself as one of the new features / changes to it. The original version is from Jonatan Isaksson. :slight_smile:

Ty, i will check his stuff out even if my game is kinda different. Is this your first game you develop ? I’m pretty noob on game dev and i’m creating my first game right now. I have only some pretty old gameplay footage of it if you want to check it out. Now the game evolved by a lot and is totaly different but i dont have any recent footage to showcase .

Yeah this is my very first one. So I’m learning tons. The one good trait about me is I can learn pretty quick. :smiley:

Nice job with your game! At some point I also want to implement spells into my game like you have. FX is always scary for me. :smiley:

I think you can pick up the free paragon characters on the marketplace (was a game created by epic) but now they give those characters for free. And all the fx in there is a gold mine for fx. If you get those i bet you can create tons of really high quality fx skills with them…

I remember the characters, but didn’t realize they also came with fx. Now that’s some good info! Thanks! :smiley:

Yeah they have all the fx in there for all the skills the character used back then in the game. So there is tons of particle fx to choose from and you can basicly make almost any skill with all those. If you get all character and all fx from each one then you are set up for pretty much anything. The quality is awso over the top but if you know paragon then you awready know how good the fx looks like…
