7.61 Produced Resources [UE4 - RTS Tutorial]

Welcome to the 61st video of this #UE4 RTS #tutorial series. In this video, we create a produced/manufactured resource. This is a resource you cannot harvest but use harvested resources to make.

Introduction - 0:00

Steps 1-2 - setting up for produced resources
Step 1: Adding Resource variable and and setting max - 1:30 (Fixing mistakes - 32:28 and 33:15)
Step 2a: Adding to main game UI - 5:09
Step 2b: Setting up Building UI - 10:46 (skipped part of this step, fixed at - 21:45)

Steps 3-6 Producing resources
Step 3: Creating primary function - 16:13
Step 4: Stop resource production (out of required material and flip flop) - 22:55
Step 5: Checking resource Storage - 26:28 (during the testing stage of this step, I resolve mistake I made in Step 1)
Step 6: Visual cues to resource production - 34:57
Clean from testing: 39:19

In the next video, we will set up our ability to manufacture vehicles.

Why when I plug my switch widget index it doesn't work ? x'D
It triggers the code, but ... Does not render my index 2 stuff. I'm gonna restart my project to see if it changes anything.

EDIT:
- I found the issue origine, it's because we binded the visibilty of the BuildingSpecificWindow visibility to check if the current building isBuilt and a training post, just had to add a OR node to check other buildings and it fixed the issue.

Thanks again for these awesome lessons! Why burden the system with that tick at the end? In the PlayerController Start/Stop Production Events I take our TargetBuilding, get the BuildingHUDRef, get the ProduceButton and set ColorAndOpacity after setting each IsProducingResources variable. Works fine.
