Unreal 5: How To Restart A Level In Blueprints
Restarting your level is something almost every game includes and is definitely possible with Blueprints in Unreal Engine 5. There really isn’t much else than that so lets just jump right into it.
My Current Project
So I have a very simple project that allows you to throw a ball until you are out of ammo.
Without getting too into the details of how this works, this is my current Blueprints setup for this level.
So what I’m going to do is setup a way to reload the scene after my ammo is not greater than 0. This is going to happen when the False flag on the branch node is triggered. Currently it just prints out a string “Out of Ammo” but we will replace that with the level restart logic.
The Steps
Step 1: Get the Open Level Node
In Blueprints there is a node called Open Level. This node will allow you to open any level you like and comes in two options. Open level by name and open level by object reference. For this example we are going to use the first option and create an Open Level by name Node.
