In this video, I walk through how I personally approach updating Unreal Engine plugins in a clean, maintainable way. I cover key practices like moving plugins locally, comparing changes after updates, testing new versions in isolation, and protecting your project with child classes and modular design. If you've ever been unsure how to update without breaking your game, this should help simplify the process.

🔷 What you'll learn in this video:
✅ Setup of UI elements for the death screen
✅ Smooth camera fade in/out system
✅ Input support across platforms
✅ Clean integration with previous parts

This system is great for action, stealth, and story-driven games where death needs to make a dramatic impact.
