How to add cut scenes in Endless runners

i want to know how to add a cut scene after a certain distance in my endless runner game.This cut scene is a comic strip that is displayed to the screen after the player reaches a certain distance in the game. I am very basic to Unreal Engine and really need help.my deadline is really really close.

What kind of cutscene? Are you thinking of having it play a video file or are you planning to choreograph something in the Level to move around?

Depending on how you want to create and play your cutscene, you’ll have to take a different approach.

Also do you want it to interrupt the gameplay or only play at the end of the course?
Oh wait it’s an endless runner, so I guess the answer is to interrupt the gameplay :slight_smile: which probably means pausing everything except the cutscene-related Actors and/or Widgets.

as a term of design.

  1. Set player speed to zero " better lerping it so its not sudden stop"
  2. do the same for any object that chasing it.
  3. trigger the event where the cut scene is starting.
  4. once the cut scene is finished set the player speed and chasing object back to normal.

How: “its hard to explain exactly, so I will say how as points that may help u”

  1. Create a blueprint with a box collider .
  2. Place it in the scene where you want to trigger the cutscene to play.
  3. -Back to blueprint, and check, once the OnBeginOverLap, do ur magic as I described.
  4. -Then after the animation over, u can set everything back to normal even you can destory this class at runtime

As a Cut scene itself, you must learn how to work with sequencer :))
