Score Counter through widget

Hello,

I am trying to increase the players’ score in my game whenever their character collides with a coin. I’m not entirely sure how I would set this up, everything I have tried with the UMG widgets hasn’t worked.

Any suggestions on how I could start this?

Did you try custom events?
It should be possible to create a custom Event in the GameMode and use this event in the UMG graph.

For example:
You increase the points in the gamemode and then fire a “UpdateUI”-Event to the UMG-graph which will catch the new values from the gamemode.
