Non-Sequential Events in Unreal Engine Blueprints
2In this video we will discuss how Unreal Engine 5 Blueprints don't always necessarily trigger sequentially or as expected.
Sometimes events will override or take precedence over other things.
In this example I was working through Unreal Engine Blueprints Tutorials and we needed to add a 'delay' in order for
events to trigger as expected.
This was because the call of the (Start Level) related functions took precedence over the Fade Out function call.
Even though the Fade Out to Color function call was before the start level code and even though it included a duration,
without the delay the player didn't get to see the fade-out.
This concept of sequential events / non-sequential events is important to learn for any language especially when thinking later about
synchronous and asynchronous events when connecting to servers or really doing anything online such as updating achievements etc.
Hope you enjoyed the video and thanks for stopping by!
