[SUPPORT] Advanced Turn Based Tile Toolkit

[Monokkel]

@consummate707

Hello, I’m currently attempting to make a D&D like game, I’ve watched your tutorial series and am having issues assigning a single “pawn” to a grid camera per player. when I go into multiplayer the camera changes with the initiative. So far I have created an authority branch for the grid camera allowing the grid camera to function normally for the Host, and removed the set target location for the remote clients. The issue is when you are a client the camera still moves away from the pawn placed in the player start. how would you go about making it so the client camera will stay locked on that pawn?

Hi there! I’m a DM myself, so I wish you luck on your game By your request I’ve made a setup for assigning specific units to cameras of clients. It is a bit more hacky than I would like, but it should work. I’ve added a new function to BP_TurnManager which loops through all grid cameras, finds the ones not controller by the server and assign a unit controller by that player to each one:

The ClientAssignPlayerUnit function is a new client event in which assigns the unit to a new, custom variable:

Then I modify the Follow Actor interface event to always follow the assigned unit if available:

See if this gives you the result you’re after

Hey , the past week or so I’ve been merging your toolkit with the card game toolkit, and I think I messed something up. How does the spawn? I can’t seem to figure out where it comes from. In my current implementation it doesn’t spawn, and so my game is broken. Any ideas? I checked the default pawn, and its set to BP_GridCamera, but that doesn’t seem to fix it.

Also, any luck on the mobile stuff?

As always, thanks!

Hmm, it should spawn normally as the assigned default pawn class. You’re using BP_ATBTT as the game mode? How does the game look when you start? What camera seems to be possessed?

As for the mobile stuff I found out why I’m not able to run it properly on my phone, and that is because the USB port on my phone is slightly wonky, causing it to disconnect and reconnect sporadically… This cancels my attempts to test on mobile. A silly reason, I know, but it is holding me up currently. I’ll see if I can borrow someones phone to test it out.

Hey ,

Can you explain how you made this parent blueprint node in the example you gave me?

Thanks, EagleEyeGamma

In any child blueprint you can right click any event which is defined in the parent and select “Add call to parent function”.
