Description
This project consists of four actor components, and other blueprints, designed to be a good starting point for prototyping, or in the creation process of a simple multiplayer melee action game. Every feature is separated into its own actor component, for implementation flexibility.

The main componets are:
Basic Montage Sequence Manager - Handles the playback of the montage sequences and sections. ( A plugin version of this component is available for free here. )
Combat State Manager - Handles the hit scan, damage, and blocking events.
Ragdoll State Manager - Handles all ragdoll-related events.
Simple Lock-on - Handles the character and camera lock-on.
Additional Components are:
Projectile Spawner - Handles the spawning of projectiles for range based weapons, as well ammo and reloading.
Animation Sync - Handles synced animations, used here for combat finishers.
It also includes a three vs three game mode to demonstrate all features, and AI bots (which are automatically added to complete the two teams for the match).
This project is a multiplayer alternative version (simplified in some areas, and expanded in others) of my other marketplace system Basic Melee Combat System. Consider checking it out if you are looking for a melee system focused on single-player, in the style of modern beat 'em ups.
Features:
Four modes of hit scan tracing for damage.
Aim Offset (for the melee attack be in the aiming direction).
First and Third person camera toggle setup.
The possibility of “baking” the tracing locations in arrays, for more hit precision in very low frame rate scenarios (Check the documentation for more details).
Handling of attack sequences, with support for montage sections.
Blocking, Dodging and Shield Bash.
Fully network replicated, with a demonstration game mode.
Ragdoll state handling.
