Just to clarify, I do not want to know how to make a variable display 2 values ​​at the same time.

I want to know how this is happening in my project.

In the Level Blueprint I have a timer that every 5 seconds generates 2 warriors in different places. This in order to distinguish them. One is from the blue team and the other from the red team:

enter image description here

The team of each one I can define correctly, the problem happens with the whole variable.

The value of the blue warrior variable should be 5. The value of the red warrior variable should be 1.

I have a Text Render that displays the time and value of the variable I have quoted:

enter image description here

In the Event BeginPlay I have a loop that prints the value of this integer variable I have quoted:

enter image description here

How can one place show that the variable is 0 and in the other show that it is 1/5?

EDIT 1 (verification of some information)

Some time after posting this question, I wondered about the value of the warrior team being correct or not, and through an impression I noticed that there was also an error.

On printing right after the event I was able to confirm the error:

In game:

Default value of the string variable:

Default value of the integer variable:

From what I've noticed, I can not change the default value of the variables in the warrior generation. Even with the pin coming out of the spawn.

Begin play called before you are setting the variable. On dynamically spawned actors begin play will be called instantly before any other bp node will be executed.

The reason this isn't working is that you're spawning an actor of the class but not referencing a specific instance of it.

After you've spawned, cast to your AI Character reference then from that reference, set your variables.

  • \$\begingroup\$ I used a cast after the spawn and before setting the variables, presented the same result. It seems that the problem was caused by the comparison being made in the Event Begin Play. \$\endgroup\$
