In this system, we can place objects in the level that represent rappel points and player can attach a rope/rappel onto these points and climb up or rappel down along vertical walls. When rappel up, once player reach the top of a wall and if up/forward movement input is pressed, the character will climb up the wall and stand up. If player reach the bottom of the wall, or any time at the middle, player can release the rope and fall on the ground. In the first part, we will work on the rappel point blueprint and how to attach a rope dynamically to the rappel point. And how to detach it later. ► 👇 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐥 // 𝐁𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐀 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧! https://www.patreon.com/codelikeme ►Patrons will have access to project files of all the stuff I do in the channel and other extra benefits Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClb6Jh9EBV7a_Nm52Ipll_Q/join Like my facebook page for more content : https://www.facebook.com/gamedevelopersclub/ Follow me on twitter : https://twitter.com/CodeLikeMe2 Follow me on reddit : https://www.reddit.com/user/codelikeme #CodeLikeMe #unrealengine #ue5 #ue4 #indiegamedev

What the enemy knows about you posted in Better RTS AI Published May 30, 2025 Advertisement I’m trying to make a contribution (if what I’m saying is worth anything at all ) to this site.If you’re a driver inside a car you’re only fully aware of things in front of you. You have limited awareness about things that are sideways or at the back of your car. This is the reason why you signal if you want to take your car to the left or right even when you are sure there is no one around ( people or other cars ). You’re aware of your limited awareness and you don’t want to take any risk.  In a Multiplayer RTS game the player has to scroll the screen to see what is taking place in this or that part of the map. If an enemy unit enters for a second in the los of one of his units and then quickly goes back into the fog, if the player has his screen centered somewhere else he will miss that maneuver and will remain ignorant about the fact that the enemy has updated knowledge about him. An AI player doesn’t have this problem. If all units in the game have the same los   range a unit has to reveal itself if it wants to get some knowledge about the enemy. Because of this the AI player will always know what the enemy unit has observed ( based on where on the map the enemy unit has entered into the los of AI players units). I have described and even had a quick implementation of the idea of AI player having a reasonable awareness about his enemy. Basically what it comes down to is a second map with just enemy unit positions that the AI player can refer to when it takes decisions. To get to the idea of “I robot am taking decisions based on what you know about me “ working you would need yet another map this time displaying what the enemy knows about robot, that the robot will refer to.
