Arcware Specific Assets in the Project
- BP_Arcware_GameMode ( this GameMode contains the reference to BP_Arcware_Pawn and BP_Arcware_Player_Controller ) - BP_Arcware_Pawn ( this Pawn is used for controlling the player camera. All of the settings you will need related to camera movement speed/zooming/panning etc, are editable in the Pawn actor's detail panel, meaning you can tweak the camera movement style without needing to open the blueprint ) - BP_Arcware_Player_Controller ( this Player Controller contains blueprint nodes for handling the Pixel Streaming events/responses. This is where you can send/receive json messages from the Web browser to trigger events in Unreal Engine ) - BP_Arcware_HUD_Hidden_Mouse ( this HUD should be used when your pixel stream has UI provided via the web-browser. In this scenario, you don't need to click any UI in the game so you don't need to show the in-game mouse cursor ) - BP_Arcware_HUD_Visible_Mouse ( this HUD should be used when your pixel stream has in-game UI. In this scenario, the user needs to interact with the in-game UI so the in-game mouse cursor must be visible. When this HUD is used it provides an example of in-game UI, which shows the most useful functionality for the in-game mouse, such as, only showing the mouse cursor when the menu is open )
