Durability System

Overview

The Durability system allows items to have a value-based lifespan, such as weapons or tools that degrade over time.

This example demonstrates how to display and manage durability using Item Properties and Visual Scripting.

---

Required Item Properties

To enable durability on an item, add the following properties to the Item asset:

• Durability

  • Current durability value

• Max-Durability

  • Maximum durability value

These properties are used to calculate and display the durability bar in the inventory UI.

---

UI Integration

When both properties are present:

• A durability bar can be displayed in the inventory UI

• The bar updates dynamically based on the current durability value

---

Reducing Durability

When using an item, you can reduce its durability.

Example

• Subtract 1 durability each time the item is used

This can be done using Visual Scripting:

• Get Runtiem Property Durability

• Subtract value (e.g., 1)

---

Repairing Items

Durability can be restored through repair systems.

Example

• Set Durability = Max Durability

This fully repairs the item.

You can also create partial repairs depending on your system.
