So as I said now we will create the flare ability for our mortars. Here the radius will be equal to whatever the effect range of your flare ability that we will create in the next step is. Our next EBPS file will be called aura_flare.Īgain it doesn't really matter what animator you use in entity_blueprint_ext as long you set the is_visible_in_game to False. Make sure that the radius is set to max range possible and that is 3,402823E+38. But the most important thing here is the radius in your add_aura action. It doesn't really matter what animator you use in entity_blueprint_ext as long you set the is_visible_in_game to False. Let us create an EBPS file called aura_night_debuff. In this next step, we will put to use everything we created so far. Now we will create our second aura called night_debuff_remove. And again you can customize the debuffs for each one of the unit types. And you also want to copy and paste this requirement_action and change the unit type to hmgs/ mortars/ vehicle. These modifiers will effect the squads when the night comes. They should look something like this:Īnd once again you can get creative and set the apply_modifiers_action as you like. Now that we have set up our first requirement_action lets move to the other once. First, we will create an aura called night_debuff and set it up like this: So far we can check if it is day or night and have a slot item that will help our units fight the night. And again you can customize the benefits for each one of the unit types. You also want to copy and paste this requirement_action and change the unit type to hmgs/ mortars/ vehicle. To how the squads will acquire this slot item we will get later in this tutorial.

This will make the squads benefit from the modifiers when they have this slot item. Here you can get creative and set the apply_modifiers_action as you like. And you want to set up the on_add_action like this: Create a slot item time_night_slotitem and set the owner_type to squad. Now that we have the upgrades we can move on to the slot item.

The first thing we need to do is to create two new upgrades called time_day and time_night and set the owner_type to player. It is very important that you name the files as we do!
