Simple Blueprint Question

Hello, I have extremely little experience with blueprints or programming fundamentals at all, I’m trying to learn the bare minimum about how blueprints work mostly on my own so that I get the most out of the experience and essentially learn quicker, I’ve followed various tutorials but don’t feel like I’m learning everything they try teaching.

So with that being said, I figured I’d start simple and try making a counter in UMG which keeps track of how many times I jump.

I’m assuming I’d just make a variable, probably an integer and add 1 every time I jump, and connect that to the jump nodes, or is there more to it?

That’s pretty much it. If you aren’t already familiar with the basics of OO programming, I suggest you learn them. Blueprints are essentially just a visual representation of a very simple version of C++, or any other OO language, so the basics still all apply. Here is something that has some of the basics: ://holowczak/programming-concepts-tutorial-programmers/

Thanks, I’ll definitely be taking a look at this

I personally would recommend you to just follow some blueprint tutorials on youtube so that you know how they work -> after that it will be much easier to create own stuff :slight_smile:
