LockOnTarget

Fast and efficient plugin for Unreal Engine which gives the ability to lock onto a Target similar to Souls-like games. The system is divided into 2 components.

• LockOnTargetComponent - gives a locally controlled AActor the ability to capture a Target along with a Socket. The Target is controlled through an optional TargetHandler. The component may contain a set of optional Extensions that can be used to add custom cosmetic features such as Target indication.

• TargetComponent - Represents a Target that LockOnTargetComponent can capture in conjunction with a Socket. It is kind of a dumping ground for anything LockOnTarget subsystems may need.

Features

• Capture any Actor with a TargetComponent with multiple sockets.
• Network synchronization.
• Flexible input processing settings.
• Target filtering.

• Target switching in screen space.
