ToString and ToInt is real nice for populating names and controlling widget switchers!

Been busy, deep in building out some new UI and found creating some #verse enum extensions made populating verse fields way easier.
Here are a few helpful ones that might help the UI #fortnite builders out there! ⬇️⬇️
#FNCreate
Quick #verse snippet from today. Surprised the score_manger_device in #UEFN doesn't have a reset function. So we added our own extension to do exactly that. Call this function like so:
"YourScoreManager.ResetScore(SomePlayer)"
Pretty easy, hope this helps someone!
HotStreak Alpha update v0.1.2!
Added a new Random Class to the roster and custom lobby system.

#UEFN #FortniteCreative #GunGame
#UEFN #Verse tags error with new update. v40.0
If you use "FindCreativeObjectsWithTag" and are getting the depreciation warning like we were.
Solve is real easy. Remove {} when passing the desired verse tag.
Simple change but took a while to find!
Fortnite Is Bringing Star Wars Creator Tools to UEFN This Week www.gamingamigos.com/post/fortnite-star-wars-...
Got my custom pre-game -> gameplay -> post-gameplay loop working.
Since #UEFN devices don't run in #Fortnite's pregame lobbies, I built my own system.
This way, players can vote for maps, build out characters or read through tutorials before the match begins.
Inspired by the Switch sports UI elements and thought I'd recreate the loading widget in #UEFN and #Fortnite. A packed texture, material function and basic timeline animation in UMG made this pretty straight forward! Let me know if want to see how its made!#UMG #GameDev #FNCreate
BONUS! A utilility function to print out an array of strings in a readable format. Made for this demo, has pretty limited use cases!
The verse code!
Tried to leave detailed comments to explain each step and understandable!
Ever needed to create a random array from an existing array with no duplicates/repeats? Behold our "RandomUniqueArray" extension method! Works with any array type. Super helpful if you have an array of custom classes or elements. Verse code below!!!
