Welcome to this comprehensive tutorial on creating a hostage system in Unreal Engine 5. Learn how to aim, crouch, hold, and execute actions using blueprints, perfect for beginners looking to add complex gameplay mechanics to their projects.
📚You'll learn how to:
Setup Blueprint Interfaces.
Setup Timelines.
Other Calculations.
This hostage system includes:
Hold: Once the player has aimed or initiated the interaction, the 'Hold' feature will keep the NPC under control of the attacker.
Release: 'Release' allows the player to let go of the hostage state, potentially ending the hostage scenario without harming the NPC.
Execute: Eliminates the hostage.
I will expand and improve this hostage system with additional features for both standard and premium members.. Stay tuned!
For any questions, comment down below and I will be happy to help!
