Miliastra Wonderland - How to create a full gun combat system from scratch!

Hello and welcome to my first ever tutorial! Today in Hoyoverse's Genshin Impact's Miliastra Wonderland we are going to be creating a a fully implemented gun system from scratch! This system will give you full dynamic control over any part of the gun you want, you'll be able to use a single node to swap to any weapon you desire, auto-reloading, manual reloading, sound effects, damage control based on factions, and way more!

Some of the things you will learn are, On-Hit Detection, Hit Triggers, Ability Units, Animation branches, a lot of nodes, custom variables, targeting attachment points, Local Filters and so much more with some helpful visuals and analogies to hopefully give you an intuitive understanding.

I apologize for my speech I have a real problem of speaking too fast and running words together when I get excited, I will also upload this system to the Miliastra Resource center and update this when that is done as I want time to add a ton of nice notes!

Props to the UGC_Union crew for the gun I use in the tutorial, I will not distribute it but you can easily find it on the resource center by typing in "gun" and find a ton of assets for your game from models to actual full systems including the one I created today but with a ton of notes all over the nodes explaining each step in detail!
