Currently Playing: UE5 Spaceship Tutorial – Boost, Camera Shake & a Real HUD | Part 4

🔴[Store, Membership, and Socials]🔴 https://linktr.ee/arghanionprime Four parts in, the ship flies, aims, lands and taxis — and you still can't see a single number it's running on. Part 4 closes both ends of that: Shift gives you a boost you can feel, and a HUD in the screen corners finally shows you the state machine we've been building since Part 1. What makes this episode great is that nothing in it invents a new rule. Boost writes no flight code at all — it pushes three factors and one camera shake into the two hubs from Parts 1 and 2, so the speed cap triples, the ramp quadruples and the turn rate halves without a line of new physics. The HUD adds no logic either: nine small functions, each asking the ship for a value it already knows. It never re-implements the ship's rules, which is why the one test the HUD needs — am I clear to land? — lives on the ship, and the HUD only calls it. What's covered: - **Boost: held isn't active** — Shift held is an input; active is a decision remade every frame from five conditions - The charge refills only while Shift is released, or boost flickers on and off every single frame - Three factors and one effect: cap ×3, ramp ×4, turn ×0.5, and a camera shake while it's running - When boost ends the cap drops under you, and Part 3's bleed rule catches it like it caught the gear - **The HUD, the UMG way** — anchors and padding do the job a Canvas HUD makes you do in arithmetic - LandingState: one line trace, four tests, and seven messages in priority order from LANDED to READY - Nine property bindings, one rule — a binding is just a function returning the value the property wants - Bindings run every frame, so the line trace is called once in Tick and two bindings read the result - `× 0.036` on speed, because Unreal's unit is the centimetre — miss it and cruise reads 11,400 - Forget Expose on Spawn and Ship is None, so every binding quietly logs Accessed None - The bug that cost me an evening: a dead widget Tick blanks the landing line and nothing else 100% Blueprint. No C++ and no third-party plugins. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⏱ CHAPTERS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 0:00 Intro — where Part 3 left off 01:20 Adding a Boost Key Mapping and Control 02:11 Boost Function 17:42 Testing the Boost 21:23 Creating and defining the HUD Widget 46:04 HUD Designer 01:00:00 Hud Testing 01:05:00 Outro ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▶ THE SERIES ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Part 1 — The pawn & it flies: https://youtu.be/MStF72RNgjQ Part 2 — Aim to steer & a reactive camera: https://youtu.be/k-mKmtDW1kA Part 3 — Take off, gear & auto-land: https://youtu.be/g3ARBObauBk Full series playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMYpImp-rgLI ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔗 ARGHANION FLIGHT SYSTEM (100% FREE) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Get it free on Fab: https://www.fab.com/listings/62a69df5-b447-415d-8d91-82f9f1a46894 Get it free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arghanionspuzzlebox/posts/free-arghanions-169535526 🔧 Discord support: https://discord.gg/tyKJYwnutr 🔴 [Store, Membership, and Socials] 🔴 https://linktr.ee/arghanionprime Every step of this series is in the project as its own playable level.
