There's a running joke on my Discord server, that the answer to most #UnrealEngine questions is "did you see how Lyra handles this?" because the Lyra project is so completely full of good examples. UI, multiplayer, editor tools it's all there.

@_benui would you have an rpg recommendation in this vein?or is this adaptable?
Show threadluddite 🇵🇸 computerDec 4, 2022
@cara I would say 90% of it is adaptable to an RPG. Maybe it's a bit thin on examples for managing huge numbers of items and data, but there's a lot of handy stuff there for tooling.

@_benui @cara I would agree almost everything is adaptable. We're building an action rpg right now and Lyra serves as a good example for most combat related things. For our specific case the main points "missing" from Lyra would be item/inventory management and large world authoring/procedural Level loading, but I haven't seen any better samples that have the same complexity as Lyra, only showcases of individual features

@jonasreich @cara would city sample help for the world authoring stuff?

@_benui @cara for sure. It's a decent reference for world partition, Masa AI and rule processor, although many of those features are still more volatile than the ones used in Lyra (e.g. data layers got a major rework in 5.1)
It's basically what I meant by other demos being more engine feature showcases rather than full fleshed game samples
