With a game, you likely have weapons. and if you have weapons, you'll want to swap out those weapons most likely. So today, let's take a look at a simple system that'll allow you to cycle through a number of weapons on your character!

Thank you for another informative video! Just a quick tip, as I've seen a lot of people use the "Pause Anims" when adjusting weapons/assets over their character: You can just press Ctrl+R to disable Realtime rendering, which also disables animations, adjust the weapon/asset to your liking and then press Ctrl+R again to re-enable Realtime rendering.

would this system be better if the weapon class is hold inside a data asset ?

it really depends on the context, there is no blanket statement " better" about this. if you have a simple weapon cycle system like this example (and my game) there is no need to get data assets involved. if your weapon/item system uses data assets ( like in the inventory series that i'm uploading), then you could take the weapon class out of a data asset yeah.

If I have in my BP_Weapon a "damage" variable, how can I get it ?

Found it. BP_Weapon has a variable "Damage" 10 that is editable and expose on spawn. This is the default value for all weapons. I have BP_Axe with Damage set to 20. To get the damage when a monster is hit I use: - Get Player Character -> Cast to BP_Player -> Get Weapon -> Get Child Actor -> Cast to BP_Weapon -> Get Damage

Found it. We use Attach Component To Component. For Target pin we use "Weapon". For Parent pin - Our Skeletal Mesh Component And for Socket Name we say "hand_r" Remember to switch the socket name to "hand_l" When you select a sword

probably best use a whole other system altogether to be honest. but you could add a socket to both hands, and check when you switch weapons if it is the bow and move the mesh to that other hand... but if youre still looking into a system to make for weapon switching, you're best off just not using this one for your use.
