Add GiveAbilityWithInput() method to GSCAbilityInputBindingComponent / Add GetCompanionAbilitySystemComponent() to the Blueprint library #
Also added GetCompanionAbilitySystemComponent() to the Blueprint library.
newly added method UGSCAbilityInputBindingComponent::GiveAbilityWithInput() Blueprint callable
Grants a given Gameplay Ability to the Owner ASC, with an optional Input Action / Trigger Event to setup the ability binding.
Simply calls ASC->GiveAbility() (on Server) and binds the input on client.
This method is meant to run on Authority (must be called from server).
During Pawn initialization, if you'd like to grant a list of abilities manually with this method, the typical place to do so is:
- For non Player State pawns: On Pawn OnPossessed event
- For Player State pawns: OnInitAbilityActorInfo on Authority
Doing so, you ensure both ASC and InputComponent are available to both grant the ability, and setup the ability input binding.
Examples #
For non Player State ASC (ASC on Pawn)
For Player State ASC (ASC on PlayerState)
For Single Player Games - ASC on Pawn or PlayerState
You can get away by simply granting abilities and input binding on begin play.
