I need help on how to make an asset to place towers when the game starts. Do I use an actor in blueprints? If so what nodes do I use to make the tower attach? Can I have a drop-down menu to select a tower? I am very new at this and have no idea what I am doing.
First you should take it easy on the start means focus on logic of your game. To build towers you should just have a testbutton on the corner of the screen and for the tower choose a simple box. Your Enemies could be spheres or something else.
-
Learn about widgets ( you will need it for your button )
-
You will need to click on specific location (platform) to choose which tower to build
-
Your tower logic should be inside a actor blueprint and to “attach” it to your world you simple spawn them with “spawn actor at location” this will have inputs and so on
…and of course watch tutorials on youtube
So, My current problem is when I click play I spawn inside my player. thoughts? All youtube videos I have found have not been very helpful in what I am trying to achieve.
Edit: Figured the view thing out but now my mouse won’t work properly in game to be able to click the actor I made with the menu to click a button and make the tower appear
