Get the best out of your games by scripting them using UE4
About This Book
A straightforward and easy-to-follow formatA selection of the most important tasks and problemsCarefully organized instructions to solve problems efficientlyClear explanations of what you didSolutions that can be applied to solve real-world problemsWho This Book Is For
This book is intended for game developers who understand the fundamentals of game design and C++ and would like to incorporate native code into the games they make with Unreal. They will be programmers who want to extend the engine, or implement systems and Actors that allow designers control and flexibility when building levels.
What You Will Learn
Build function libraries (Blueprints) containing reusable code to reduce upkeepMove low-level functions from Blueprint into C++ to improve performanceAbstract away complex implementation details to simplify designer workflowsIncorporate existing libraries into your game to add extra functionality such as hardware integrationImplement AI tasks and behaviors in Blueprints and C++Generate data to control the appearance and content of UI elementsIn Detail
Unreal Engine 4 (UE4) is a complete suite of game development tools made by game developers, for game developers. With more than 100 practical recipes, this book is a guide showcasing techniques to use the power of C++ scripting while developing games with UE4. It will start with adding and editing C++ classes from within the Unreal Editor. It will delve into one of Unreal''s primary strengths, the ability for designers to customize programmer-developed actors and components. It will help you understand the benefits of when and how to use C++ as the scripting tool. With a blend of task-oriented recipes, this book will provide actionable information about scripting games with UE4, and manipulating the game and the development environment using C++. Towards the end of the book, you will be empowered to become a top-notch developer with Unreal Engine 4 using C++ as the scripting language.
Style and approach
A recipe based practical guide to show you how you can leverage C++ to manipulate and change your game behavior and game design using Unreal Engine 4.

Write efficient, reusable scripts to build custom characters, game environments, and control enemy AI Key FeaturesBuild captivating multiplayer games using Unreal Engine and C++Incorporate existing C++ libraries into your game to add extra functionality such as hardware integrationPractical solutions for memory management, error handling, inputs, and collision for your game codebaseBook DescriptionUnreal Engine 4 (UE4) is a popular and award-winning game engine that powers some of the most popular games. A truly powerful tool for game development, there has never been a better time to use it for both commercial and independent projects. With more than 100 recipes, this book shows how to unleash the power of C++ while developing games with Unreal Engine.This book takes you on a journey to jumpstart your C++ and UE4 development skills. You will start off by setting up UE4 for C++ development and learn how to work with Visual Studio, a popular code editor. You will learn how to create C++ classes and structs the Unreal way. This will be followed by exploring memory management, smart pointers, and debugging your code. You will then learn how to make your own Actors and Components through code and how to handle input and collision events. You will also get exposure to many elements of game development including creating user interfaces, artificial intelligence, and writing code with networked play in mind. You will also learn how to add on to the Unreal Editor itself. With a range of task-oriented recipes, this book provides actionable information about writing code for games with UE4 using C++. By the end of the book, you will be empowered to become a top-notch developer with UE4 using C++ as your scripting language!What you will learnCreate C++ classes and structs that integrate well with UE4 and the Blueprints editorDiscover how to work with various APIs that Unreal Engine already containsUtilize advanced concepts such as events, delegates, and interfaces in your UE4 projectsBuild user interfaces using Canvas and UMG through C++Extend the Unreal Editor by creating custom windows and editorsImplement AI tasks and services using C++, Blackboard, and Behavior TreesWrite C++ code with networking in mind and replicate properties and functionsWho this book is forIf you are really passionate game developer looking for solutions to common scripting problems, then this is the book for you. Understanding of the fundamentals of game design and C++ is expected to get the most from this book.
