Technical Details

The core of the system is configured with a TimeSystemComponent which you add to the Game State. There is also an example PlayerController, Game Mode, and Pawn class included in the asset. The PlayerController class has an additional layer of complexity over a typical PlayerController for replication purposes, as described in the documentation. The Game Mode has a post-login event which allows clients to grab replicated time values from the server on login.


This asset uses a handful of icons for the time controls widgets which are from gameicons.net, which are licensed under CC By 3.0. The specific icons included are: Pause button icon (Guard13007), Play button icon (Guard13007), Fast forward button icon (Delapouite), and Time trap icon (Lorc).
