This devlog showcases my Blueprint-based sprint and stamina system and its integration with the playerโs health and thirst.
Hydration decreases at a normal rate while walking. Sprinting consumes stamina and accelerates hydration loss, giving faster movement an additional resource cost. Once stamina is depleted, the extra hydration drain from sprinting stops, while the normal drain continues. If hydration reaches zero, the player begins losing health.
These connected systems make resource management part of traversal. Players need to balance speed with their physical condition, using drinks to restore hydration and medkits to recover health. The UI tracks each stat and highlights critical levels, providing clear feedback as resources run low.
