That's the fun and cool part. Considering I make heavy use of blueprints, I can work on shaping this into a game and as I grow more experienced rewrite the old code into better one without breaking anything else as it's all contained in separate classes. Blueprint is magic.

Yes, UE4 is C++.
If you want to make something blueprints can't give you or you want to make your own blueprint components, you have to program them in C++.
Finished some simple logic to handle UI stuff properly on each client. The statue is a dummy model to represent a ship terminal. When you press use, this small screen shows up.

Implemented a new concept for the basic fighter ship system with inertia. The ship has a child object of ShipEngine class which apply its forward force to the ship and also define what particle effect will be used by the ShipEngineEffect child components of the ship. All these sub components inherit the Hardpoint class which make it easy to find them when needed.
