Features

A fully-setup example project!


GAS has a lot of moving parts and can be quite daunting to wrap your head around at first glance. I am providing this example project as a basis for learning how to properly set up your project to utilize all of its components. There are obviously many ways to set up your project, but I believe this example provides a simple, versatile base to build upon.


Note: The 5.4 update of this project has introduced significant changes in an attempt to simplify the setup and add some commonly used / requested features!


Other Features include:

  • Thoroughly commented C++ code
  • Example Blueprints
  • Health Attribute Set (Includes Damage / Healing)
  • Stamina Attribute Set
  • Stamina Regeneration example (Based on Stamina Regeneration Attribute)
  • (New) "Ability System Initialization Data" structure for initializing the Ability System Component
  • (New) Ability Trigger / Release bindings tied directly to Enhanced Input (Not Gameplay Tag Based... yuck!)
  • (New) Commonly used example Ability Tasks (Wait Enhanced Input Event / On Tick Event)
  • (New) Native Gameplay Tags example (NativeGameplayTags.h)
  • (New) Health Regeneration block after damage (3 seconds - Damage Volume)
  • (Updated) Example UI elements with Attribute event bindings (In Game UI / Nameplate)
  • GA Jump example with Stamina cost
  • Player Character and Non Player Character class examples
  • Example external Gameplay Effect application (Damage / Healing Volumes)

Ability System Initialization Data can be found in the Character class Blueprints.

Ability System Initialization Data


Dan's (Tranek) GAS Documentation covers all of these concepts and provides a great breakdown of GAS overall. This repo was made as a starting point for getting set up and should be used alongside Dan's documentation. My intent is for devs who may not be as familiar with C++ or are just starting with GAS to have access to a more easily digestible setup example. Cheers!
