Alex, your teaching is top notch, great pacing, and clear explanations.

how to make an async loading screen with progress bar

Following the Tut using UE 5.4.3 and the Bug at 9:31 is still a thing! Thanks Alex for the fantastic tutorials! Very good pacing and great at explaining each phase.

All this video did was break all of the grid code leading up to this for me. now the grid doesnt show up at all, and sometimes i can get just the bottom left tile to appear and nothing else. I honestly dont even know where to start. im stuck between spending hours trying to fix it, or spending hours trying to undo it...

You are the best. This plugin is so easy to use and incredible.

Not Sure if I am doing anything wrong, but I followed the tutorial twice and at the end no grid appears when all the nodes are finally connected. I know this is an older video but if anyone knows how to fix this it would be very appreciated.

great video but you talk to fast bro. My brain cant keep up lol

5:07. There is no 'add instance worldspace' in Unreal 5.2 EDIT. There is a checkbox on the add instance 'box' for 'worldspace' I've just checked it.

UE 5.4.3 user here: I think I did everything as I was supposed to, but I have an issue (actually had two, but I fixed the other one myself). First, the issue that I still have: when I switch the grid shape on the actor in the scene, the whole grid disappears until I change one of the other variables (e.g. tile count, center location etc). Otherwise, the grid puts itself together as it should and things are working. I'm not sure what the potential consequences of this are later on, but I just wanted to see if someone else had this issue and has a potential solution. Second, I had the issue that there wasn't any debug output, but this was solved after I enabled "show stats (shift+L)" in the sandwhich menu of the viewport.

I got another problem, my shapes are changing in construcot, in blueprint but not in the ingame like you do? whats the problem

Hello, nice videos and thank you ! Im trying to connect GridShape, I called it ShapeVar but I do not have the option like you have to auto convert the needed format, how can I do that ? I tried to find keyword like Get or To but no success

Cool, I won't have to make 1200 assets manually!

Hello, I'm migrating some blueprints code to c++, I have an event in a UserWidget blueprint "OnAutoProgress" that I want to bind from c++ side. How can I do that? or I have to convert the widget blueprint to c++ to do this?

Hi Alex love the series, wondering if the "speed up" feature at the end is safe to implement as an actual game feature? Would i just need to create a UI element and call the console command? Or would calling console commands like that break the game in some way or not be "good practice"? In the same topic, if I had a "real time" game and wanted to "slow down time" to select actions, is it essentially done in the same way? Thanks again~

Je suppose que ça ne marche pas pour migrer des classes c++ d'un autre projet, en tous cas c'est tellement compliqué je pense que ça sera plus rapide de réécrire mon c++. Sinon il y a déjà un bouton "importer" dans unreal, quel est l'intérêt de passer par le c++?

thanks a lot,it's very helpful

world Spase does not output to UE5

Hi! I've been following along and this series is amazing. Congrats, Alex!! In this video I've stumbled upon not being able to delete the units after I check the "use environment" checkbox.And spent a while trying to understand why and fix it. For anyone also having this issue, Alex ends up fixing this behavior in video 32 at 15:00. So just keep going :)

would be great if you can have a tutorials on having progress bar at runtime!!

I don't know why when I run to Get Color From States, it's always just Length==0.

18:30 May be useful for those who encountered the same visual error. Perhaps its just on UE 4.27 but if you have all spinboxes appears with same fract digits - you need to set value of spinbox (in event graph of SpinBox_WithName) after setting min and max fract digits (not before as on 11:47 in the video)

Expecting more tutrials!!Awesome tutorials!!

how to import fbx camera to level sequence

Thank you, Alex. Great job. Amazing videos and teaching skills.

您的教程做得真是太棒了！讲述过程也非常有趣！！非常感谢

You can get a massive performance boost and avoid lags between path regenerations (especially with the debug visualization) by giving GridMeshInst an UpdateInstance function that only updates the CustomDataValue per instance so you don't have to delete and re-add it every time you change the look of the tiles. Then simply use the previously created UpdateInstance in GridVisual-UpdateTileVisual. Tested in UE 5.4

This Series is a Gem! Thank you for the explanations and also showing how you can do something, then show how you can do it even better!

Thank you for introducing Functions at 19:33. I thought I was being clever by figuring this out ahead of time during the tut 😂

Just spent an hour troubleshooting the weirdest bug where the "Cast To BP_Pawn" node would not show up in the graph editor. For anybody else who runs into this issue, go open the pawn blueprint. Not sure why that had to be opened for me to cast to it, but hopefully this helps someone else.

Hi, and thanks for this great series! For some reasons, I'm not able to get actor from LocateBoundObjects function. I have a series of spawnable actors, and I'd like to fetch one of those using its Guid, but the array is always empty. Do you have any suggestions?

your videos are not very comfortable to watch because of your accent, but the information is still useful, thank you

Are you kiding me hahaha

I know this vid is a bit older, but I felt like saying. That joke about how nice the broken tree looks was a good break from the grind. 😆

I create a new level and the outliner for it is blank :|

For anyone who is following along in UE5: - Connecting source control to your repo, you can go to Tools -> Connect to Revision Control.. -> change Provider to 'Git' -> Accept Settings. Btw, very glad you are working with Source Control for this tutorial!

31:51 There has to be a better way than either option you presented. It's *definitely* a bad idea to use a delay for this, that's just a race condition, even if it works every time, it's just wrong. I'm way too new at unreal to be able to suggest how though.

FString VerbosityString = *UEnum::GetValueAsString(Verbosity);

Dope. <3

Well this was quite the Marathon. I originally came here to look up the Grid side of things, but ended up watching the entire series and following along. And boy am I glad I did. I learned a lot of other tips tricks and best practices I already implemented in my current projects. Thanks for your work Alex.

Tu es tres genereux je vais suivre ces tutos !

You should have 100k subs! Keep it going!

If anybody else is struggling with the BP_SpellAnimation not spawning you need to set it as a default value in S_SpellData under assets -> Animation

At 4:13 I can't connect either select actions to the exacute actions with the message "BP Player Actions Object Reference is not compatible with BP Actions Object Reference." Edit: Same with trying to connect the "Spawn action" to "Set Selected Action Left Click" at 5:54

Everytime i watch one of those videos i have a problem "Why does X not work i did it like in the video". Then i watch it again and see that i forgot to connect one random Node.

Great Plugin, I just got an email, saying there's an update. Where do I get that? Cheers

Hello Alex, when im using your plugin all pivots of single objects get set to the pivot of the prefab. How can i avoid this and have the normal pivots of each object in Unreal?

Shouldn't all of this be in the gamemode? Having to drag a BP into your world to do combat seems like a waste

For people who sometimes need to break loop immediately: add line from node "assign break true" to "execute" AND replace Delay with Retriggable Delay. That way, if you will call loop again, you can rewrite delay time

For some reason after doing the calculate the tactical grid only when its visible the grid starts flickering with black and white and when I hover over a tile it turns the tiles black. I have only found out that UpdateTileVisualTactical goes in a loop causing the flickering and that when I hover over a tile with the IsTactical checked the IsTactical variable is set to true and if its not then its false - it updates with every tile I hover over.

My Unreal just crashed and made my second monitor disconnect somehow. I dont even know how. Edit: My GPU doesnt show up in the Task Manager lmao
