Displaying Reason

The loading screen reason that you specify in the Should Show Loading Screen function can be used and displayed in your Widget blueprint to give the player some useful feedback.

Setting up the Widget​

  • We'll use a basic widget with a black background and a centered text field to display the Loading Screen Reason

Updating the Reason​

  • You can get the Loading Screen Reason from the Loading Screen Manager and use the Get Debug Reason for SHowing or Hiding Loading Screen function to get the reason for showing or hiding the screen

The Result​

  • Using the Actor Example from the Watchers Documentation this is what we'll end up with, the Loading Screen Manager will return "My Actor wants a loading screen" as we set that as our reason in the Actor Example
