Zelda like Heart Health System tutorial

Hey everyone!

*I’m XyonFox and I just started a brand new **UE4 tutorial series *about creating a heart-based health system.
like the one you find in The Legend of Zelda or in Minecraft.
I’m new to the tutoring (is that a word?) world so i’d LOVE any feedback :slight_smile:
English isn’t my mother language so don’t be too rough :wink:

Feel free to suggest a new feature, I may implement it to the system if i’m capable of doing so :slight_smile:

Hi there :smiley: I was wondering if you are ever planning on doing part 3? The heart system that I am left with at part 2 is unusable because it doesn’t add any new hearts once one is full, neither does it allow you to start with multiple hearts and remove them through damage. If you want to tell me how to do those parts now, I would greatly appreciate it, but if not, please make a tutorial on it so that others can do this. I understand if you are done with the tutorials for now and don’t want to make another.

Hello everyone, it has been a while (almost 2 years!) ^^’ sorry but I have been very busy at university. I have uploaded the demo project files so you can download them and test the ‘finished’ (only the simple features listen in here) system. https://drive.google.com/open?id=11PdX7uY-f31v6MsZ_BKVmJYr803UgBgc. I might try to re-do it and complete the tutorial, until then you can use this. Thank you for understanding.
