Ability Sets

First of all you should add Queueable Ability System Component to your character. This can be achieved both c++ or blueprints. Or even further, you could make a child of Queueable Ability System Component and use it instead. After this your Details panel should look like this:

  • Queueable Granted Abilities: This abilities are bind to a gameplay tag that you can press, release input to. And system will add them to the queue and play if the system is availible. They are child of Queueable Ability.
  • Not Queueable Granted Ability Sets: This abilities are the default Gameplay Abilities. Given abilities will be granted to the owner of this compoonent on begin play. After that you can use them as you would any gameplay ability.
  • Granted Effects: This set is just a bonus for this plugin. You can add any gameplay effects here and they will be applied to the character on begin play.

This are Data Assets that can be created like you would any data asset. In the details there is a array that you need to populate with your Queueable Abilities. Final result will look like this:

Input tag will be used to give inputs to interact with this ability. Ability Level is the default Ability Level from the Gameplay Abilities. And Activation Policity can be "No Activation", "Activate On Grant" and "Activate and Deactivate on Grant". Which does what they say. This Activation policity can be usefull for looping abilities such as: Sprinting, Walking, or any stance ability. They can init some values such as walking speed, state tags etc.
