Unreal 5 Tutor: Essential Blueprints 01: Level Blueprint

This video introduces the "Level Blueprint" - the blueprint class where you can put scripts at level level. It shows how to put scripting into the blueprint, the fact that it can access objects in the level, and some discussion about the dangers of using it too freely.

This playlist is part of a suite of videos designed to give entry-level teaching for Unreal Engine V. There are many videos on YouTube about how to achieve specific things in Unreal, and the vast majority focus on a set of steps to achieve a specific aim, without really helping you understand what you are doing and why. My videos focus more on understanding what you are doing, so you can become a practitioner, not a copier. I have quite a few years experience of teaching Unreal in person with students, so think I have a good grasp on what needs explaining, and what can be confusing.

I am happy to try to answer questions in the comments, but won't go so far as to engage with your actual projects to help you debug. Sorry. That's a service I only provide to my students.

These tutorials are helping me get the basics down. I used one world rotation function to clean things up a bit though since you can take all four static mesh nodes directly into one world rotation target node.

Very easy to understand, thank you for putting these out for the sake of education & not revenue

ty.
i learned more from this video than a whole udemy course.
why ?

PROS:
instructions are very clear.
instructor takes their time.
explanations are giving during and after.

CONS:
none.

NOTES: this is more of a preference- I would have liked to see a visual of the outcome at the beginning of the video.
I find that the imagery of the rotating cylinder meshes would "stick" with me by the end of the video.

Thanks for the Intro Dan! Appreciate the clarification on its uses near the end!

Thank you for this video I was following a tutorial then I lost it, Thanks to you I found it ;)

You shouldn't use the Event Tick. Timeline node or the Rotating Movement component would be a better approach.

30 seconds of intro is WAY too long. We want answers, not see endless pre-presentation. Want more followers? get to the point. Nonetheless, thanks for the info.
