Hello


I've seen a very interesting thing at your site

ue4 does not let chunks damage actors … But i am working on a solution for this. Is planned for the next update.

any news here?

Hi Voradori

by default the Debris do not cause damage or relay effect the game play,

I have implemented a solution called "damage debris" that spawns objects when debris is created , and this projectiles will cause damage

here is the video for Damage Debris https://youtu.be/NqS0XYSWG2Q
and you can test it on the compiled Demo https://www.dropbox.com/s/6carbky36b...T-64X.zip?dl=0

it is available on the current implementation of the pack

Just purchased DENT looks great. Did add it generic shooter. Trying to add it to Third Person shooter kit. When I try to blow up a DM, does not work. All I see is the bullet pic. Any help would be appreciated.

I have not used the "Third Person shooter kit" but if its blue print based it should be easy enough.
1 - Are you playing in multiplayer? if so is the "Third Person shooter kit" networkable
2 - the bullet you are firing a Line trace or a Projectile ( sounds like it is a projectile) added this bit from the QandA section below encase it helps

Projectiles Must cast to BP_Dent_Master and Vice Versa
projectiles must have a Damage,Radial, and Strength Value ( the name does not match just when you call the Value from BP_DENT_Master it has to be the equivalent value from your projectile

you must also Cast to Dent to set if this is projectile causes radial damage



Now on the \DENT\BluePrints\Destructibles\Destructibles_Master
Cast to your Projectile and return the values you have chosen for the Point damage, Radial Damage and Radial Impulse

If that did not work can you upload screenshots so I can see what is happening before and after. Thanks

[theProfessor]

Not multiplayer. Attaching images -- the barrel and the radial impulse in the BP_BulletProjectile. When I create my own DM it is destroyed.

If you want I could zip the project and if you had a place I could upload it to you. Would that be OK?

Thanks To Koniferus Here is the Guide on adding DENT to ShooterGame

In ShooterProjectile.h - you need to expose the "explode" funtion to BP then call it from your system in the projectile



Then add the Explode to your Projectile
