Welcome to Week 2 of My Development Log
Major Objectives
-
Ending week 1 with this unresolved issue remains one of my top priorities.
-
Design and implement additional player upgrades to offer a broader selection ranging from basic stat boosts to rarer, game-changing mechanics planned for later stages of the game.
-
Completing and polishing the tutorial area is crucial to advancing the prototype. Once finished, I'll proceed with implementing basic mechanics, paving the way to introduce more core features.
-
I want to set achievable goals for the week, focusing on completing the tutorial area, implementing basic mechanics, and laying the groundwork for introducing core features.

Problems Encountered
-
P: There were some issues with the enemy animation when walking
A: I did not want to waste time this early on animation so I set simple montages to trigger when attacking and a simple idle animation otherwise
-
P: I was having difficulty getting the enemy to take damage based on the players damage variable
A: I figured out that I my Cast to player was failing so the damage was coming out NULL. I fixed the reference to call from the correct location.
-
P: Started implementing a headshot system for the humanoid enemy but would not trigger when hitting the head
A: I understand the problem is that the sphere collision on the models head is not triggering properly. I set this aside for another time
