Examples

A guided walkthrough of the included demo map and practical integration examples.

Demo map — MergerMapTest

The plugin includes a ready-to-play demo map that demonstrates the full combined building system.

Location: /Engine/Plugins/CodingPassionPluginMerger/Maps/MergerMapTest

Opening the map

  1. Open the Content Browser in the Unreal Editor
  2. Navigate to /Engine/Plugins/CodingPassionPluginMerger/Maps/
  3. Double-click MergerMapTest

Example 1 — Place a wall

  1. Press Play
  2. The Wall System is active by default
  3. Select a wall item from the bottom bar
  4. Left-click in the world to place the wall

Example 2 — Color a wall

Using the demo as a reference

The official documentation states:

“After opening the Map and looking through the implementations, you should be able to integrate each Plugin into your own project.”

Open the Blueprints in the plugin folder to see how the integration Blueprints are structured:

  • BP_PluginMergerController — how input is routed
  • WBP_MergerUI — how the combined HUD is built
  • BP_EditorWallWithFloorsBP — how walls connect to the floor system

→ See Wall-Floor Integration for a full explanation of each Blueprint

TODOs

  • TODO: add step-by-step integration example for a blank Unreal project
  • TODO: add example showing how to reuse BP_PluginMergerController in a custom GameMode
  • TODO: add example showing how to attach BP_EditorWallWithFloorsBP to custom wall Blueprints
