[UE5] Easy Combat Softlock 5.3

Quote:

The Easy Combat Softlock System, allows to search, rotate and move to a target with 5 different search types.



In contrast to the well-known hardlock system, the Easy Combat Softlock System only locks the target for a short moment and turns / moves the actor to the target.



This allowes a dynamic combat against multiple opponents without being tied to a single target, but still allows precise combat. Of course, it also works for single targets.





The system can be used via blueprints and also via animation notify. This allows you to search for your target in every animation for total control.



The system has been created for easy handling and needs only 2 minutes to set up.

Despite the simple handling, many settings are possible to adapt your combat system to all circumstances.



The double layer search system allows two search types to be actively used at the same time.

There are 5 search types:



Area
Actor look direction
Camera look direction
Input direction
Last target


More details are in the documentation.
