Illumination Systems | UE5 Devlog

Recent UE5 devlogs for Life of Alex showcase several new Blueprint systems. An illumination system integrates flashlights and lanterns with independent battery levels and inventory management. An interaction awareness system utilizes custom depth shaders and icon widgets to highlight interactable objects. Additionally, a sprint and stamina system is linked to hydration and health; sprinting accelerates hydration loss, and zero hydration leads to health depletion, requiring players to use drinks and medkits for resource management.
