Hi All!

I am working on making a text based type game in Unreal Engine 4. I know it's a bit of a powerhouse for this type of game, but I was curious to see if I could. I use C++ and was wondering if anyone had any experience or thoughts on the best way to load the text? I have it so the text will be displayed in a widget, and obviously I could make arrays to hold the information, but Unreal has built in tables, and I have seen some programmers make a similar game with imported CSV files and a data table.

Has anyone worked with Unreal's tables before and have a preference/recommendation?

Thanks in advance!

@StarjumpDev Thank you! I am familiar with blackboard for AI, but had never thought of it's use in this situation. Also, thanks for the warning on the extra column. So far I have just displayed text by having it keyed manually into the C++ blueprints, but that is just for testing. Going forward I need a better way and I think Data Tables ae it.

Thanks again!
