### WeaponModule - Professional Combat & Talent Framework

**IMPORTANT:** This plugin includes the RTSUnitTemplate - https://www.fab.com/listings/4a251276-1063-41b2-b443-f02d75cd610d

If you allready have the RTSUnitTemplate, please check my patreon.

The WeaponModule is a high-performance, data-driven combat framework designed for large-scale Real-Time Strategy (RTS), Top-Down shooters, and Open World games. It bridges the gap between the flexibility of the Gameplay Ability System (GAS) and the massive scale of Mass Entity (ECS).

#### Core Features

* Data-Driven Weapon Management: Entirely controlled via DataTables. Define weapon meshes, sockets, fire rates, and projectile classes in one central location.
* Advanced Ability System:
* Switching: Seamlessly cycle through available weapons with automated mesh and attribute updates.
* Grenades: Dedicated area-of-effect (AoE) ability system for explosives and tactical gear.
* Reloading: Complete magazine and reserve ammo management.
* Per-Weapon Talent Trees:
* Individual progression for every weapon and grenade type.
* Units earn experience to unlock upgrades like Piercing, Multi-Shot, Magazine Size, and Cooldown reductions.
* Mass Entity & Open World Optimization:
* Proximity Spawn System: Intelligent "Camps" that spawn units only when players or enemies are in range, enabling massive, living open worlds with minimal performance impact.
* ECS Rendering: Weapon meshes are synchronized with Mass Fragments, allowing thousands of armed units to be simulated simultaneously.
* Interactive Pickups: World actors for weapons and ammo resupply, fully integrated with the unit's inventory and GAS attributes.
* Ready-to-Use UI: Includes HUD widgets for weapon selection, ammo tracking, and a dynamic, auto-generating Talent/Upgrade menu.

#### Technical Benefits

* Scalability: Perfect for Singleplayer, Multiplayer, Co-op, and large-scale PvP/PvE environments.
* Performance: Utilizes Mass Entity processors for XP synchronization and visual management, ensuring high FPS even with high unit counts.
* Customizability: Easily expandable for any top-down or RTS project that requires a robust, RPG-like weapon and talent system.

*Empower your units and dominate the battlefield with the WeaponModule.*

Important/Additional Notes:

• This product is a self-contained superset of the standalone "RTSUnitTemplate"

plugin. Both share the same plugin and module name and therefore CANNOT be

installed side by side — this product replaces the standalone version.

• This plugin requires the following engine plugins, which are enabled

automatically by the plugin descriptor: Enhanced Input, Gameplay Abilities,

XRBase, Mass Gameplay, Mass AI, Zone Graph, Zone Graph Annotations.

All of them ship with Unreal Engine; no third-party or Marketplace plugin

is required.

• The Weapon Module is an internal module of this plugin, not a separate

dependency.

• Demo content (Paragon characters, Animation Starter Pack, Mannequins) is Epic

Games sample content, included for demonstration purposes only.
