[SUPPORT] Advanced Turn Based Tile Toolkit

Congrats on the baby you where totally right on the components thing I needed to add it to the enemies as well and needed the ExtraAttributes and that fixed everything thank you. will understand you have limited time but wondering a similar thing as above post when I use the following below in the hybrid example noting change but the trigger for combat I added the following to spawn a unit with AI checked and enemy but when it becomes its turn all I get is end turn and the unit does noting.

Hmm, hard to know for sure without testing (and time is a bit tight atm), but I can tell you what I would test first. Does this work with regular BP_Unit_Anim units? If so, this might be tied to the ability system.​

Hey, no worries, man, I didn’t see your last post on the new mini-human before writing, so by all means ignore silly bug questions and enjoy your time with the little one. They really do grow up crazy fast. Congratulations!!!

Thanks! I’ll try to respond when I’m able, but my responses will likely take longer for a while, and I might only rarely have the time to test stuff myself in engine.

codeyhanson, this may or may not be helpful, but so far I’ve fallen back to randomly spawning units NON-realtime and doing a trace check if there are any top down objects in the way (trees, rocks, buildings, whatevs). One thing of note, this doesn’t correctly check if it hits another editor-added unit and also doesn’t guarantee a fixed number of enemies are actually spawned. Still have to work on that this afternoon, but planning on re-looping over the grid until the enemy unit count meets the desired number, then breaking the loop).

Best to you all!

Thanks for chiming in with the suggestion. Personally I would keep it to arrays as much as possible. Checking the GridUnits TMap before spawning would ensure you don’t spawn on top of any existing units. Checking GridLocations ensures there is a valid tile there. Checking GridEdges you can check that there is a tile there and that it is connected to at least one other tile.

So here is a video link for the camera problem if anyone else has any ideas basically in the experimental build if you add the ability’s component to the player character it will cause the camera on the turn base mode to get out of place on the 2nd combat u can see this is the video below. first go in video is the glitch or error 2nd go around I remove the ability’s and it works just fine.

Also thank you for the reply darthje5u5 but in my case it did not help.

Thanks for providing the video. Unfortunately I’m still not sure what the issue could be here. Some unpredicted interaction between the experimental hybrid code and the advanced ability system that I have not tested for. I would have to test this out myself. I will try to get to it as soon as possible, but it might take a few days before I have the time.

Congratulations ! I hope your baby is doing good and mother is recover good as well. Hope you enjoyed sleep while you could. About my last question regarding ai and the hybrid map. I have my ai tree set to stop when combat begins but in order to do this I have to use my own ai controller. What I would like is to switch npc’s from my ai controller to yours for when combat starts and back again to mine after combat. Any ideas how/where I can do that or do you think it’s best to use my ai controller for both (that’s gonna be quite some modifications but I’m ok if I cant avoid it). Thanks and welcome to being a dad.

I think shutting off the AI Controller and starting it up again should be simple, though I cannot be sure without knowing your exact setup. Isn’t a simple UnPossess call working?
