The goal of the blueprints is to have it so when an action is performed, points are added. But whenever the text in the widget is updated, it results in a weird duplication that looks like this:
This is the part of the blueprint on my character that updates the points
and this is the blueprint of the widget
Nevermind, solved the problem. I had both a player start and another instance of the Pawn in my scene so it was creating the widget twice, deleting the Pawn fixed the problem.
Thanks, I had the same problem.
Additionally this also might happen when you’re doing a multiplayer game, on C++ when you create the widget you should make it something like this:
if(IsLocallyControlled()) {
myUserWidget = CreateWidget<UMyUserWidget>(this, UMyUserWidget::StaticClass());
}
Alternatively, if you’re doing by blueprint you can look for the same name “IsLocallyControlled” to accomplish the same thing…
