ive used a counter rather than a timer for detecting when the dungeon is infinitely looping. i was also having trouble with an infinite loop when deleting overlapping rooms but found a 0.001 delay after 'is array not empty - true' solved that.

I’m working on a Game and I saw your first video and this is what I was looking for the ability to spawn object in a room… like enemies… and traps…my tv game thanks you

This is super awesome! I don't even understand half I am doing but it works like a charm. I really like your educational skills. Much better than some ironed out and super smooth story.

Great series and a very versatile system. I suggest you consider using modulo (%) at around 45:30 which allows you to do multiples of. So regardless of number of rooms every 'xth' room will be a special room. Use room number into modulo (e.g. 5) then check if that result == 1 and if so do a special room. You could then extend to a data table so each special room has a unique modulo variable and can therefore set the 'density' of each special room. P.S. this is one of the best systems that is extensible I've seen...please do a tut #3, loving it! \m/

Thank you so much for the excellent tutorial! It was incredibly well done, making the setup process straightforward and easy to follow. Your guidance has been invaluable. I'd like to share a small tip regarding the spawning of special rooms at specific intervals. In my opinion, the best way to achieve this is by using a modulo operation. For example, if you have 50 rooms and want to spawn a special room every 10th room, you can use the modulo operation. A modulo operation gives the remainder of a division. In Unreal Engine, this can be done using the % character. Here's how it works: For numbers 1 to 9, number % 10 will give a remainder (1 to 9). For numbers 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50, number % 10 will give a remainder of 0. So, by checking if roomNumber % 10 == 0, you can ensure that a special room spawns every 10th room (10, 20, 30, 40, 50). Thank you once again for the tutorial, and I hope this tip is helpful!

when will you be puting out part 2?

For me, who is still a cavemen in Unreal Engine, you're doing a great job as a teacher. I was impresses by part one, I am very happy with part two and I would love to see a part 3. Ideas for part 3: - GameModes for level changing, e.g. completing a dungeon by some next level loading. - A pre-level, where the player can adjust the amount of rooms or the difficulty, like the damage from traps, if given. Could also be upgraded to a shop or something where the player can spend the coins, but that might be an upgrade for a part four. - An interface, showing a health bar, the amount of collected coins or whatever will be a player-relevant value in the game. - Some kind of a dungeon map

this was so great! the only thing missing now is a way to see through the top floors to the player in the case of playing a Top Down game

Great Video! You're doing great at these tutorials btw! maybe part 3 could introduce an enemy system that spawns within the rooms, or the ability to control how many floors will be generated! great work, get going! :D

This is fantastic!!!

Yet again awesome tutorial. You could maybe also have used a for loop to spawn a X amount of rooms before spawning a special one. Then repeat the process. Also: If you don’t want fixed spawns, you can create a box collision and choose a random point to spawn player, loot or anything. This prevents the 1000+ arrows :)Keep it up 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

Break random Stream - will make it an int. you can also type ++ or -- to increment variables.

This was exactly what I needed and the pacing was perfect for a beginner like me. Thank you for this!

To connect the Stream to the Print String, you need to add a 'Break Random Stream' node which outputs it as an Integer which you can then convert to a string :)

You are real life-saver!😄

For the spawn point, you could take a look at the pcg for that, make a area spline and leave it to choose a random point

Of course you're a master my friend. I'll send you my finish project for sure.

the models look great. the rat intro in the first minute of the game was awesome. watching onwards and discovering your game is a platformer, side scroller, not a 3d adventure like ocarina of time is where i was disappointed. the models and world is nice enough to go full 3d. ill never play platformers personally, but other people will. lemme know if a sequel/offshoot game is made in full 3d

Tx man your content is really cool , and that's why everyone is asking for more 😊 continue like that. By the way your game looks really cool ✌️😎

Damm, you are reading my mind! Basically you are going over stuff that I was going to go over, but I'm trying to deal with other landscape shenanegans first, like in this video I made "v=ot6ty5cETtU", so after dealing with that collision crap, next step is exactly pacling a dungeon underground a building X, and your guide is just perfect! Please keep blowing our minds as well!

THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN ! I was wandering, do you think it is possible to set a number of floors for the dungeon which must not be exceeded ?

Ayyyyeeeee! Part 2!!! Your first video helped me out so much on the UE5 project I'm working on, and I'm sure this is going to help me too. Thank you for uploading Part 2! Idk if there will be a Part 3 but if there is, I'll be here!

I got an error with the world transform, it unfortunately scaled each room higher with each spawn and the rotation was not working, it was always spawning rooms on corners. For anyone else getting this error you can fix it by adding a new variable, with a variable type of Rotator set the default value to 90, or what ever you rotation inconsistency is (this should be 90, -90, 0, 180). connect it to the GetWorldRotation with a combineRotators. plug that into a MakeTransform's rotation pin, use get world location for the Location pin and connect the output of the transform into the Spawn actors transform., leave scale to 1, 1, 1. This fixed the bug for me, since an update messed with the get world transform node.

UE5 is great!

As always, great video, and thank you for the tutorial.

Are you going to keep doing these? Because they are great and i would like to see things like different sized rooms, a way to reduce the chance of creating identical rooms next to each other and across the dungeon. Love the videos, thanks for covering this topic

Hey, glad to see part 2. I'm not infront of my computer. But, I believe if you drag "Stream" node from your variable list onto the string pin, it will automatically connect with a convert to string node. Also, not sure how exactly to do it. But, I believe a "For loop" would be a way to spawn different actors from the same event.

Hey there. Well first of all, i loved part 1. there are for sure many people out there who are looking for that kind of tutorial. Also good explained very good stuff. I got a question. Is it possible to generate some specific rooms only ones? Regards

Imagine a stream of water flowing continuously. Each point along the stream represents a unique random number. The "random stream" acts like a pointer moving down this stream, picking out random numbers one after another. Unlike a basic random number generator, a random stream allows you to control the sequence of random numbers. Seeding allows for repeatable or unique sequences based on your needs.

Hi Guys.. This Part 2 was a little more messy than Part 1, and I apologise for that, I'm still learning how to make these Tutorials.. I hope you can follow along anyways 🙂 Let me know if you have ideas for a possible Part 3

24:20 - The reason it works that way is because you're "appending" items to a list. The first variable is the "list to append to" and the second is the "stuff to append". Since you want to add "children" to a list of "exits", the "Exits List" needs to be the first variable (thing being append to) and the "Children" need to be the second (things to append). This is more easily illustrated by looking at the normal "Append" function (rather than "Append List"), which labels the nodes more clearly. i.imgur.com/6Ljrynn.png

Great Tutorial it is！Thanks for sharing

This is awesome. I know you find tutorials hard, but the way you do them 'warts n all' is the besy way. Kinda shows that it's okay to make mistakes and this is how you then fix them :) Keep up the good work.

Hey i have an issue and that is for some reason only if one dungeon room that is the master dungeon for me it'll work but if i add an dungeon room variation to it it doesn't work meaning it'll only do like 3 rooms instead of 30 that i put into room list I've checked everything in the view port to make sure everything is correct i just don't know what's wrong with it edit: if i removed an dungeon room from the room list and leave dungeon master in there it'll wont work at all unless i click the trashcan symbol basically remove all elements and then click plus button and add back dungeon master it works completely fine so it's either the rooms i've duplicated are not working or something in room generation is not working with an extra room in the room list and also why is the reply i put in not working all it has a link to the ue blueprint website were it shows the code i've put in

Thanks for this! I agree that it's nearly impossible to find good videos teaching this. I found one for UE4 by ToadNet from a while ago that was pretty good as well. Things I'd love to see built onto this include... - Variable room size for each room, with smart hallway lengths to connect them - Hallways not always dead center along walls (don't want the dungeon to FEEL like a grid of squares, even if it really is one) - Multi-floor rooms (the ability to generate rooms with multiple floors, without making the entire dungeon be multiple floors, but maybe the exit from this two-floor room is on the second floor and goes down to the first floor again in the new room) - Creation of "start" and "finish" stairs / portals to go deeper into the dungeon (generate the next "layer" in another instance) - Inserting your procedural dungeons into the new procedural landscape generator such that you can create a massive jungle containing multiple unique procedural dungeon structures, with a single drag and drop Further down the road: - Room "Themes", which define how large a room usually is, what assets are allowed to be used to generate it, and how many objects might be found in it (tables, chairs, plates, etc) - Room "Clusters", which define sets of multiple "Themed" rooms you might find together (a bedroom cluster might contain 1-3 bedrooms, and a bathroom, all connected by a single short hallway, for example)

What a funny idea I love this

Great Tutorial, it was/is very helpful. I am however getting hung up when I fill in the holes. It appears that my exit list is of course full of exit arrows 1,2,3 so it seems it is just adding to any Exit Arrow 1,2,3 that it finds which is closing holes that shouldn't be closed. Any thoughts on this?? I'm Using UE5.4 and figured I should also mention I had an issue using Get World Transform and had to take it back to using location and rotation. I found that adding Scale blew the next room way out of proportion size wise.

This was a very clear, very well done Tutorial, great for beginners that want to do stuff. 10/10 would definitly reccomend! (als the fact you left your mistakes in, and showed how you solved them is very very usefull for people, so double bonus points on that! ). Most tutorials on this subject use very complicated stuff, and you just Kept it simple.

Great video!

Amazing tutorial

Very nice totorial, I´ve found it very useful! I wouldn´t use timers to check for a closed dungeon but eliminating exits after an overlap and checking for exits > 0 before placing the next room. Also, overlapping seems not as the best way to make this, as it is easy for begginers to understand, but it´s really resourse inneficcient, I would use some logic check with a 2 dimension array (or 3 for a pro dungeon with different levels) to check for overlapping without generating anything so it doesn´t take so many resourses generating, colliding, eliminating.

Thanks!

i did a similar thing with branching paths to look like slay the spire maps and it was a real pain the butt but i got it to work. your use of arrows is super clever and i wish i had thought of that. i'm definitely going to use this tutorial for a new little dungeon looting game. thank you! :D

Ive been researching different methods of procedural generation and find this video very helpful. Thank you!

Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing

can i do the same thing with a maze

Nice tutorial with a cool result! Lil Blender tip: with “/“ u can focus on one geometry u selected without the need to hide the other geometry. Hit it again to unfocus.

Tried out many different methods of procedural generation before and I have to say this is the simplest guide to follow, everything is so easy to understand! There's a lot of freedom in this system also, you can make tiles of any shape or size, including ramps that lead to other floors (as long as the exits are marked)

f i had this video before i decided to buy one off a patron 😞

Not gonna lie I love this style of tutorial. After a few weeks botting around on my own its nice to see how someone else tackles those problems who has some more base knowledge. Thanks, I needed this, gave me a ton of ideas :D
