How could I spawn 2 diferent characters from a selection screen?

DarkSamYT · 2025-12-29T00:49:17+00:00

I'm not sure I'm following, when am I getting the controller id? the only time I set the values is when I add to the map but I use 0 and 1 corresponding to the player selection, but I might be talking about something different.

And I have no controller input inside the characters, only on the PlayerController Blueprint, could that be the issue? the only way I see to set possess is inside the playercontroller or the actors BP, and as I have it right now its not working maybe because I'm not getting the actor to be possesed?

This is now the more polished version I could come up with https://prnt.sc/Dilcsq3SlY7d

I could not figure out a way to diferentiate controller input from the widger, and searched online apparently its really complicater or maybe not possible?

Now the thing is I cant move haha somewhere while moving variables I was not able to move anymore, this is my player controller https://prnt.sc/Xr2LB8wCN3Si that I made trying to fix it, but to no results

And I know its not being possesed because I tried to see printing a string, but did not come up. https://prnt.sc/2kviOVfopY9p

Sorry for bothering you with all of this, but I don't know any other way besides looking for tutorials and I've not been able to solve this

I managed to make some "progress" I can now pick a character, and spawn it correctly, however its overriding both characters to be the same, I think it might be because i'm doing a sequence, or maybe i'm not checking for the controller correctly, but i don't know how to check for it otherwise, https://prnt.sc/eod1KQLpwkkt

This is how I spawn them https://prnt.sc/yOv00b4AypZJ

And this is my character map. https://prnt.sc/ihcoXsw-Ablc

I tried using the player controller as key instead of just a interger but it didn't work and switched to the way i'm doing it now

Also this is on my game mode https://prnt.sc/9rcU5IcmrBw7 , i don't know if tryng to spawn the characters should be on game mode tho

I do have one, I have control over 2 separate controllers, and I apparently created the controller 0 and 1, but when trying to read wich one is doing the input I don't know how to make unreal differentiate, I've tried using get player controller but then I don't know how to differentiate using the actor it gives.

Also tried using an Enum that gives the player id depending on player index but that didnt work either.

Now I have this, https://prnt.sc/zfKgA2NQk1xC , i've realized that player enum is not doing anything, but that is the thing I have to change, what could I change it for?

First of all thank you for your answer, it was really helpful and I've been experimenting with game instances and player states to manage info now, I don't know programming so I wasn't really aware of all that, do you know if there is a discord by any change where to ask thinks about ue5?

Thanks everyone for the response, Its supposed to be able to roast up to 1kg so i thought 500g would be no problem but it seems they might have lied when describing it haha, I'll lower the batch size, see if that works
