Terrific Game mechanic vid, and just a fun project to go thru. Really appreciate the time and thought that goes into these lessons. Digital Beers on me! 🍺🍺

[@UnrealART]

thank you very much , Glad you enjoy the videos! 🥂🥂

[@irenetreyette336]

YES! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I cannot tell you how PAINFUL this was to try to do this on my own!

Bro thank u i really needed this im learning UE5 and this was a big help u got a new sub

thank you so much, with this tutorial i now can end my school project! Sorry for my english, but i really want to tell you that

[@UnrealART]

Glad I could help! what are you studying ?

[@hazemsy2797]

Great work thanks, 1 thing that is interisting was when u click "E" in the Box, the widget will be opend as much as u press it, and when u want to close it, u need to close it as many time as u open it. Just Note.

[@UnrealART]

yeah good idea , thanks for sharing ! 👌👌

[@D3ck4rd87]

I can't get the door to close once it's verticle, I am making a castle gate and I have my collision box verylong on the bottom so the collision box will still be detectable. Once the gate is lifted I can't get it to close

[@A.G.Arts2024]

Perfect and super functional! I wanted to thank you and at the same time ask you if my idea of using the same system using a keyboard input in order to give the password with letters to compose a word or an entire sentence, is it really possible in the end? This is simply to know if I understand the direction in which I am going to look, thanks in advance! By the way, I can apply the "Remove Parent" in the blueprint of the widget but not in that of the door (I can't find it in reference, am I missing something?)

[@UnrealART]

Glad you liked the video. yeah it's totally possible to use the keyboard instead. With a couple of small adjustments you can create that system

[@A.G.Arts2024]

@@UnrealART Thanks, so I will look in this way I've got some Ideas now thanks a lot for sharing yours!

[@carlosrivadulla8903]

nice one bro

[@UnrealART]

Thanks 🔥

[@levstepchenko5019]

Great tutorial, only one problem is that node "Remove all Widgets" kills other widgets on the level. Any idea what can be a substitution to that ? Thanks.

[@UnrealART]

Thanks. yeah you should use a remove from parent function and connect the return value from the create widget function to the target . let me know if there was any issues 🥂

[@levstepchenko5019]

@@UnrealART Already fixed that with the method you mentioned above, also it's better to change "remove all widgets" node in WB_numpad, becuase it will destroy all widget as well. I changed them to set visibility. Thanks for the reply anyway, it's always nice to see that author of the channel stays in touch with his viewers, not just drops tutors.

[@UnrealART]

@@levstepchenko5019 No problem mate🥂🙏

[@gmblackwell]

hey so I can't go through the door when the animation is done, and the cursor won't disappear when clicking exit.

[@CyberiaWu]

Hi, Thank you for this great tutorial and your channel. I have a short question please. As I have a wiget displayed on the screen in my game (lifebar), how do I remove just the widget from the tutorial because the node "remove all widgets" delete all the widget (my lifebar) on the screen. I thought there was a node "remove widget" but no it doesn't. Thank you for your answer.

[@CyberiaWu]

I've found. I added "Remove from parent" instead.

[@UnrealART]

yeah that`s a good solution 👍🥂

[@julianking4793]

I am a bit late to this brilliant tutorial. Any idea how to reset the blueprint state? Say "On component end overlap" reset so when you go through te door and leave the hitbox the door closes and the blueprint is ready again to be triggered?

[@UnrealART]

Yeah it's possible. you may need to change the code a little to achieve that but it's totally possible

[@Miaou_Bad]

Hi ! Dont know if im too late but i would like to ask you a question, this tutorial really helped me but i wonder if its possible to make a number limit (because it glitch out the screen if we type too much. Thanks in advance !

I get this question a lot. I missed covering it for some reason so I think I have to make a new tutorial about it !

[@frzx_3]

THIS VIDEO helped me a LOT like A LOT thank you and can u make a tutorial on how to make the game generate a random number and display it on the screen and the randomly generated number is the correct password?

[@UnrealART]

thanks glad you liked the video, you mean you want it to generate a new password for example in every 1 minute?

[@frzx_3]

kind of like that but a random password will be generated when the game begins and that will be displayed in a widgit@@UnrealART

[@UnrealART]

Yeah it's totally possible. you need to combine some variables together

[@frzx_3]

can u tell me how it would really help me a lot @@UnrealART

[@frzx_3]

please tell me how to do it i really need it@@UnrealART

[@serizawareda7831]

thanks for the tutorial ! But isn't better to put the correct password as an Interger instead of a string ?

[@UnrealART]

have you tried it with an integer? I remember that using a string was better in this case but I don't remember the details. It was a long time ago. use whatever works! this is my philosophy in working with unreal ! 😉

[@nitram1923]

hi, thank you so much for the tutorial! It was extremely helpful! But after i closer the UI the cursor is still visible, how do i remove that?

[@UnrealART]

hello . you are welcome. I think I explained it in the video . you need a remove cursor function in the blueprints

[@nitram1923]

@@UnrealART oh damn, I rewatched the video multiple times And didn’t notice for some reason. Thank you!

[@nitram1923]

@@UnrealART hello again. I have another question: I had a crosshair on the screen but after exiting the UI the Crosshairs UI gets removed as well. After trying some selutions I wasn’t able to fix it, do you have an idea on how to fix it?

[@UnrealART]

the problem is that when we remove all widgets, it removes the crossair as well. you just need to remove the widget you made and not all of them. In my video I removed all widgets because I did not have anything else and it didn't matter

[@surya_616]

Hi bro I want to remove the specific num pad widget only from the viewport it's removing my all widgets from the viewport pls make a video of how to do that bro it will be helpful for me pls

hi . use remove from parent widget node and then plug the panel to the target

[@maryamghafourian5242]

Thank you so much, I have a problem. Do you know Why my character cannot cross the opened door?

[@UnrealART]

you are very welcome. yes it's because of the collision of the static mesh. it's probably covering the entrance

[@Ashley-mg1fn]

Hey there, when i input the code the numbers show up, but the "enter code" does not go away, and they end up layering over each other?

[@UnrealART]

Hello, check the canvas and the buttons and how they are parented to each other. make sure it's exactly like the video . I think you have messed them up a little 😂🤔

[@twiggy5289]

thanks a lot for the Tutorial,really helped a lot .but i got a error in PasswordDoor Blueprint ,after testing the game it says SetInputMode_GameOnly expects a valid player controller as 'PlayerController' target,how can i fix this error.and by the way im using ue5.3.Thanks a lot for the Tutorial.

I have a video about getting a key and opening a door. isn't that what you are looking for ? for the keypad though I have to look into it and come up with something

Will this work on multi player servers? Or will the custom events need changes

[@UnrealART]

I am not sure but it may need some adjustments

[@UNF344]

Amazing job, but one question, how can I only remove the panel widget instead of all widgets?

[@mridulsharma_06]

Hey so use Remove from parent node and plug in the panel widget in target.

[@UNF344]

Thanks for the help, but that only worked on the widget itself, how do I do with the trigger box?@@mridulsharma_06

[@UnrealART]

you want to delete the box collision as well after you entered the right password so it doesn't pop up anymore ?

[@UNF344]

No, I want to keep the box colision, the thing is that I have other widgets on the screen and the "remove all widgets" in the code is a problem, how can I only close the panel widget after I'm done with the interaction?@@UnrealART

[@mridulsharma_06]

@@UNF344 okay so under the node called endoverlap (your target should be you box collision) right, search for node called remove all widget or something similar Delete that node and instead use a node called remove from parent, now plug it in instead of your old one. Finally in target of that node plug in your password widget bp. To get reference to that Widget just create that widget and set as variable or directly create a variable and change its class. If you still cant figure out let ne know.

hi I have a question , do you know how can I grab enemy and then use that enemy ? for example I grab a drone and use that enemy's gun for firing to other enemy? I want to grab a drone and with drone kill other enemy like robo recall .thanks alot for answering ....

[@UnrealART]

hi , It`s a little complicated but I think the trick is to change the AI controller for the drone into a player controller when you catch it . another trick is just to destroy the AI drone and spawn a controllable drone at the exact location and moment , it works but it`s a little dirty to do it this way!

Maybe the collision box is parented to the door and moves up when it gets opened and you can't collide with it again. other than that, it should work if you do everything as explained in the tutorial .
