what da...

@@luong256 wtf?

[@GeertLinthoudt]

Just add a B_WeaponSpawner to your level and the AI-freezing stops, this also works in the Open world.

[@killstreakz]

👍

Yes man, I would love to see more lyra tuts!

[@digitalsyanide1746]

I hope this becomes a whole series from animations to everything lol possession ect

[@yozzahughes3939]

Character select screen next? Keep up the great work

[@SmartPoly]

good idea

[@colinfernandez3D]

yup

[@deioo1965]

The bot freeze issue I believe is related to bots running out of ammo and not knowing what to do next if there is no weapon spawner in range. Hope it helps, thanks for the tips!

[@Jordan-hb8bx]

That "world partition" tip helped a lot!

[@_adam_bartkiewicz5512]

Bro you the Best unreal engine KZbin creator

thank you man, great content, love to see more

[@akutame]

daamn keep up this tuts!

[@rajivchandel1393]

Thank you man

[@prosealien]

Thanks for showing how to do this very well explained. I located part of the reason for the spawn freeze. I believe the Navmeshboundvolume must be slightly lower than ground level for players to activate. After time through will freeze again as code searches for missing items. Added B_WeaponSpawner as mentioned previously but a console message wants me to keep adding extra things eventaully will freeze. My guess is Blue print/ is code designed for original layout /items, I maybe wrong though. One solution I found; I duplicated the original L_ShooterGym map instead rename and have build from there to make sure there is no freeze. This works I then added new layout and character etc.

[@seffdog1177]

Your tutorials are perfect and the best on yt pls make more on Lyra

[@bassquatchhunter5311]

You Rock! Thank you so much for this tutorial

[@r3tr0play4]

Can you make a tutorial of how to use the niagara fx of spawn in and death to the retargeted meshes.

[@dadlord689]

Really good tutorial!

[@ooorc46]

NIce Tuts! Thumb up!

[@asdfish82]

You are saving things in the ShooterCore plugin, wouldn't it be better to create new plugins for each new "component" we make? such as levels, mechanics etc?

[@jiekii]

Thank you very much. For a novice who doesn't know how to modify Lyra, this is the best tutorial!! Can you record a tutorial on how to add game settings? Thank you again~

[@lx2222x]

you made my day! :D

[@wolfiedgr8t]

Great tutorial 👍

[@islandonlinenews]

all my settings are correct my map loads by default, but when I quit game, go to main menu then try to go back to my map it loads my players but the wrong map, and the settings are definitely on my correct map. any ideas?

[@MG619Day]

Liked and subscribed bro! Thanks for this so much! I’m trying to figure out how to add my fbx custom city. For some reason I can walk on the city but I can walk around the city like if it’s an object.

[@TheKr0ckeR]

Thanks for great guide, when i try to add my map to menu; i cant seem to find my map inside Map ID, my map is located exactly where you selected, near ShooterGym map.

[@AlbtraumLukas]

18:39 how do I delete the three other buttons?

[@aleemmohammed7794]

How do you see the AI tree? The move goal is invalid and that is when the Bots freeze.

[@aminmontaze]

Is there any chance to build this project with our custom maps and playtest them with others online? or via LAN?

[@michaelsparkson]

On unreactive bots. I think they need to be on a platform/mesh smaller than the meshboundsvolume. The samples use them and the tests ive done doing the same don't seem to experience it.

[@GeertLinthoudt]

Making de NavMesh as large as the landscape didn't solve it for me.

[@allenburtt6821]

Nor me : )

[@Clonez-sr7to]

How do you duplicate the spawn points? I cant figure out the hotkey.

[@magnum164]

The bots are out of Ammo. Or in my case they were, once I added a weapon pickup and ammo pick up I no longer had any bot freezing. Debugging the BP just shows it stuck on out of ammo loop cycle. Even on respawn they were still stuck on empty for a bit. Since there is no retreat or cover locations when they are out of ammo.

[@originalclassic7603]

how do i put the maps into a Build ? i cant select them inside the Project Launcher Map Section because they are not in the content folder directly.

[@tiktak132]

amazing tutorial! But I am not able to add in meshes i get a "you may only reference assets from engine content"

In unreal engine 5 when I put a new item on the floor , it half goes to the floor - I may have some key or the ability to automatically put the premet on the floor?????

Can you make bomb scenario out of it like CSGO or Valorant

[@5226-p1e]

So if I wanted to create a spaceship with this tool, I could create the level design of the ship from the inside out, include how it functions make the ship bigger as if it's meant for a much larger crew, create several subsections meaning I would need an elevator to get to different levels, give that ship some automated protocols to function a certain way, put it within a space like format and set up scripts for certain things to happen while the crew is in the ship, say an example is a procedurally generated attack will happen outside the ship, causing the crew to go to battle stations or something like that, so that they can defend the ship, and have the ship jump into FTL to escape the attack. I don't know this is all at the top of my head here, is this stuff even possible what I'm talking about?

[@jesterglee1319]

make it make it!

[@thanhdat-funnydogs]

can you crate a tut to show scoreboard when the battle is finished.

[@darkwolf780]

how to edit features in the game would be great to know as well, as I'm trying to figure out how to add in the ability to take over and your character snaps to the wall but i'm having difficulty with that as I can't find where I add that in at

[@oudaak1]

Everything works fine in the first round. But when the second round starts, the bots can't see the meshes I added, and get stuck on them. They still shoot if I come near. Please help.

[@usmanwahab7716]

is it possible to add my own custom BP to replace the default lyra BP ? And similarly for the AI ?

There is a problem....every time the game finishes, I have to manually quit the map...can somebody assist me? that after losing or winning the game, all players quits the map automatically...

[@eddiej.l.christian6754]

I am wondering how we set this up on our EOS Dev account? Would love to see a video on how.

[@Dark_Days449]

Make a new game mode, for example, let everyone be alone and with bots, and last 5 hours. If it's 5 hours, the game is over. If a player goes somewhere within 5 hours, he wins the game and writes that player's name on the other players' screen, and the game restarts after a certain period of time. Please make a game mode like this

[@Dark_Days449]

Plsss

[@bringfire]

This is a great video, thank you! Do you have any idea how to package your project with the Custom Map included in the menu? It seems to disappear when I package the game.

[@TheosResearchDiary]

did you ever figure this out?

[@bringfire]

@@TheosResearchDiary yes, it's actually much simpler than I thought. You can just tick the check box in your LyraUserFacingExperienceDefinition Data Asset in the Playlists folder that says "Show in Front End"

[@TheosResearchDiary]

@@bringfire Thanks for the follow up! Trying to package today and figured I'd be likely to face that. Appreciate it.

[@davidedemurodominijanni9889]

It doesn't allow me to place any mesh, from the content browser, into the map I created. I'm using the same path you chose in the video... and I find no way to fix it up.

[@SmartPoly]

yep thats why you want to create the map and save it to the plugins folder. otherwise you wont be able to drag content into it

[@davidedemurodominijanni9889]

@@SmartPoly I did save it there before doing anything on it. I saved it in the "ShooterCore Content" Maps folder by the way, maybe I should have saved it in ShooterMap Content Maps folders instead? I'll try that way... this video of your is really helpful by the way, I was trying hard to get into the Lyra Project to learn all I need for the game I'm developing myself and it was driving me insane. I have a big issue only, so far, with UE5 which I keep looking for good tutorials for... it's about Full Body IK retargeting considering the massive variety of characters I have to create for the game. One tendency in tutorials is their giving too much for granted, in terms of troubleshooting for example... in Full Body IK and retargeting they completely ignore some scenarios like missing bones {in a character of mine there's no waist bone and some twist bones are also missing. The tutorials I've seen so far are weak, from that point of view. Also, another couple of issues I couldn't fix are... the migration of the procedural building tools to another project {I did try, to make some experiment there, but it ends up broken} and also an issue when adding a vehicle... it gives me some blueprint error which I guess it wasn't supposed to be there. I'm definitely looking forwards to see the tutorials you're gonna make, those I've seen so far have been all helpful indeed!. Thanks for replying, as well. Cheers! Update: I found something else really annoying which is about the teleporter... I mean... why can't we change the color of the FX without altering the Niagara code!? I was playing with them and I was willing to create a main teleporter where every teleporter can lead to, a sorta Base Camp where there are teleporters to the different locations and changing their color could help to make them recognizable per type {Main teleporter, Secondary teleporters}.

[@andrewshandle]

I get the same thing when I try to add meshes to the map if I drop it in the same directory as the Firing Range, so I think that is the issue. You'll notice in the video the first map is stored in one directory and only 2 or 3 meshes can actually be dropped in (you get the error when you try to add anything else), the second map in the video, the one with all the functionality is in the other directory that has access to all the meshes. So just move your map to the other "Maps" directory in the plugins section.

How do you have More then 2 bots?

yeah the glitch where the AI dont move is because the AI chose to try to pick up a weapon but there was no weapon to pick up. I placed down 3 weapons and out of 10 tries I was unable to replicate the glitch anymore. So the fix is placing down weapons

[@talhasam3130]

Bro can you upload it on playstore for Android?

[@officialhush]

I still get AI freezing when I duplicate the firing range map, anyone else getting freezing? Great tutorial tho, exactly what I needed to get used to lyra!

[@officialhush]

Interesting, once I got some more Lyra game components setup it stopped freezing in the duplicated firing range map.

[@GeertLinthoudt]

@@officialhush Yep, just add a B_WeaponSpawner to your level and the freezing stops, this also works in the Open world.

[@andrewshandle]

So I find that when I put a map in that same directory as the Firing Range I get the freezing just like in the video even after adding all the spawn points people are mentioning. I'm going to trash it and add a new one to the other directory that he adds his second map to and see if that works. I have a feeling that is the issue.

[@wildricknarcissot6031]

Hello I really appreciate your tutorials but this one is not valuable, you can't call this a map !!! and it's more about building few things with Lyra assets than adding custom elements from outside of Lyra to build a custom map. Good job on your tutorial but not this one.

[@ThatOldChalupa]

The first 3 mins were not necessary. Why I had to open up a map to see the AI not working was a waste of time. but alright..
