Very nice, you learned about the Avatar Actor Info.

[@CodeWithRo]

@@Yggdrasil777 Yes! We also learned about cooldowns / abilities / end ability too! 🥹

[@Chatmanstreasure]

Is there a way to make it move where the character is facing? it spawns but it only moves in one specific direction

[@CodeWithRo]

Hey! Great call, in the GA_Spell, right before your 'SpawnActor BP Thunderball' Drag out the Return Value of Get Avatar Actor from Actor Info -> Get Actor Rotation -> Plug into the Spawn Transform Rotation! If you need any help let me know and I can make a youtube short.

This is great, but I don't have a component tab on the details panel. under Gameplay effect it has duration policy, duration magnitude, modifiers, executions, conditional gameplay effects. My details panel also has waaaay more tabs than yours. Not sure what I am doing wrong!

[@CodeWithRo]

Are you on version 5.4.4? Weird if you have a lot more haha did you enable the experimental GAS and is your parent the GameplayEffect?

[@Gragel_Fragel]

2. questions 1. how would we go about adding it so when the ability hits something it ends and also damages it and 2. if you spam F it just keeps replaying the start of the animation is there a way to make it so when you click F you cant keep clicking it so the animation will fully play?

[@CodeWithRo]

You'll have to add some sort of on impact fx via the actor bp, and to damage it you need an enemy to take damage or something (i will get more around that when making the damage part) and for the ability spamming you can add the tag via the Block Tag in the gameplay ability! 🥹

[@intrepidoak2618]

Hey any thoughts to why the anim montage won't fire? I am using my own character setup from a blank template.

[@CodeWithRo]

@@intrepidoak2618 set the animation to root motion and try again 🥳

[@phamhuu7671]

Thanks for the guide , how can you reduce the cooldown in game btw ?.

[@CodeWithRo]

You could add some sort of level stat and cooldown reduction where when you level your character or abilities you can reduce the gameplay effect cooldown per level 🥳

[@MaxyBlack]

Is there a way to use ability system for reloading a weapon and somehow update inventory to reduce the quantity of the ammo?

[@CodeWithRo]

Yes! GAS can be used for equipment/weapons/inventory etc 🥹

[@YoutubeAccountMan]

Have you experimented using cooldowns in turn based system instead of the normal real time?

[@CodeWithRo]

I haven't tried making a turn based game from scratch yet! 🥹

Hello I appreciate your tutorials, Your tutorials is best for learn to GAS But I couldn't reproduce your blue print, It seems to doesn't work Wait GamePlay Event or event recieved for my project I wish I could that I'd like you to teach me that my problems, I implemented GAS project as your blueprint, But doesn't works my project well, I could play montage but couldn't spawn Thunder Balls , if I connected normal exec node of wait Gmeplay Event to spawn Thunder Ball, I could spawn Thunder ball instead of montage Seemingly, I could send Gameplay event, I checked with print string node in AN_SpellAttack My enviroment is UE5.44 and using third person template

[@itsumikunmeat2929]

I'm sorry for long coment, And I fixed it, I misunderstood about GAS that GAS has to prepare in c++, So I saw your tutorials "Intro to Gameplay Ability System (GAS) Project Setup in Unreal Engine - Blueprints" Then I reparent third person characters's parent to PrimeCharacters That why errors heppend, I don't know why errors happens, But I reparent third person characters's parent to Characters class So that I can completely use "Wait Gameplay Event" Thanks for your tutorials

[@CodeWithRo]

Glad you got it working!!! Nice job 🥳
