Overview

WCGASResilienceData is a Data Asset that defines attribute-based probabilistic resistance rules for the Wonderscape Creations GAS Ally plugin. It allows designers to configure which Gameplay Effects can be resisted based on an actor's resilience attributes without writing any C++ code, making resistance system creation a fully designer-driven workflow.

When an effect attempts to apply, the system reads the target's resilience attribute (e.g., StunResistance = 45.0), rolls a random number 0-100, and blocks the effect if the roll is less than the attribute value. Each ruleset is reusable across multiple actors (e.g., "PlayerResilience", "EnemyResilience", "BossResilience").

Creating a Resilience Data Asset

Using the Wonderscape GAS Ally Menu

1. Open the Content Browser
2. Right-click in any folder where you want to create the asset
3. Navigate to: Wonderscape GAS Ally > Resistance > Resilience Data
4. Give your new asset a descriptive name (e.g., DA_PlayerResilience, DA_EnemyResilience, DA_BossResilience)
5. Double-click the asset to open it and configure its properties

How Resilience Works

Application Flow

1. Resilience Data Assignment
   • Assign a Resilience Data asset to actors via the WCGASResistanceComponent
   • Multiple actors can share the same resilience rules
   • Each actor uses their own attribute values for resistance calculations
2. Effect Application Check
   • When a GameplayEffect with UWCGASResilienceGEComp attempts to apply:
     • Component finds the target's UWCGASResistanceComponent
     • Looks up the UWCGASResilienceData for a matching rule (by effect tag)
     • Reads the target's resilience attribute value (e.g., StunResistance = 45.0)
     • Rolls 0-100; if roll < attribute value, the effect is BLOCKED
3. Tag Matching
   • Each rule matches effects by their Asset Tags
   • Supports exact matching or hierarchical matching
   • More specific tags take priority over parent tags

Resistance Roll Formula

EffectiveChance = Clamp(AttributeValue, 0.0, MaximumChance)
If AttributeValue < MinimumThreshold: EffectiveChance = 0.0

Roll = Random(0-100)
If Roll < EffectiveChance: Effect BLOCKED
Else: Effect APPLIED
