Unreal Engine : Events V.S. Functions

[@gamedev1118]

A function can be bound to a delegate. The node is called "Create Function". There you can select a function.

gonna pin this because this is great intel! i wasn't aware of that!

Always loving your videos, keep them up!!

[@thegamedevcave]

Thanks!

I see it like this, using public events to call from other blueprints that then run private functions in the target blueprint.

[@thegamedevcave]

Thats a pretty good guideline

You forgot to include macros... those are functions as well, except, they input and output execution pins.

[@thegamedevcave]

i initially did record a segment on macros, it made the video needlessly long so i cut it. Macro's aren't really functions, just a group of nodes packed together into 1 node, similar, but not quite the same (for instance, child classes can't use macros you made on their parent, because there is no function call for them). I might do a separate video on how they differ

@@thegamedevcave That would be awesome
