So far, we've covered a lot of the major systems available to us for making our projects in UE4. Using Blueprints and C++ to program takes us most of the way towards completing a project, and UMG gives us one of the final pieces of the puzzle. In this chapter, we will be covering the Animation Blueprint system, which will let us create more dynamic characters.
