so i was hoping i might get some advice on adding a hunting rifle with a single shot it doesn't need a reload animation i just need it to fire a single shot at a time and it can still use the rifle fire animation and reload

Thank sin advance 

so i was hoping for some advice on the map i have massive open areas in my game they follow a pretty straight forward exploration area but i am not sure how this translates to editing the map screen inside a building it is pretty clear but having an open area how do i add areas to the map screen

regards

just wanted to know if there is a way similar to the stalker to add music when certain enemies attack kinda like in re2 when the birds burst through the windows and music will fade when they die

Enemies & combat (most important for me)

1. Do weapon traces return a bone name on hit (i.e. hit detection against the skeletal mesh's physics asset), or do they only trace against a capsule? I'm planning to integrate a procedural dismemberment system, which needs to know which bone was hit.
2. Can enemy damage and death be overridden in a child Blueprint without modifying the base enemy class? My game has a mechanic where zombies regenerate unless killed by fire or decapitation, so I need to intercept the death flow and replace it with my own logic.
3. Can I add new enemy types as child Blueprints with their own stats and behavior, without editing the AI core?
4. What skeleton does the enemy AI expect, and what's the recommended path for using my own zombie meshes/rigs?
5. Roughly how many enemies can be active at once before AI performance becomes a concern?

Doors

6. Is door lock state decoupled from the door's movement? I'd like to keep my own door actor and motion, but still drive your lock system (keys, keycards, codes, chains). Is that supported?
7. Is the door open/close speed exposed as a tunable parameter?
8. In the demo I noticed some doors wobble/jitter slightly when opening. Is this a known issue, and is it addressed in v0.5?

Characters & animation

9. Does MetaHuman work with the GASP motion-matching locomotion? The docs mention retargeting DA_Pistol fire/reload and the pickup montages — is there a complete list of animations that need retargeting for a MetaHuman character?

Weapons

10. Can I add my own weapons entirely through data assets, or does adding a weapon require editing the weapon base class?

VFX & UI

11. Does the framework include its own blood/impact VFX, and can it be disabled or replaced with a third-party blood system without breaking anything?
12. I have my own interaction prompt widget. How hard is it to swap the interaction UI for a custom one — is the prompt display separated from the interaction detection logic?

Systems

13. Can the save system be extended to store custom state (e.g. my enemy's regeneration/evolution stage, and a custom puzzle's state)?
14. Does the framework support World Partition / level streaming, or do the save and map systems assume single persistent levels?

Thanks a lot — the demo felt great overall, especially the lock system.
