destruction system got a massive upgrade. The FX team has been focused for awhile. Massive re-factor to core system, that touched every world asset in the game.
It's all procedural Niagara driven. Not only better quality, but fewer assets to manage!

It's a small detail, but usually our event timers count down to 0:00 and there's been a slight delay. For our Collision event the team invested effort in having everything time up to hitting 0 when Paradigm launches the mech.

The beauty of this is, no pre-fracturing of meshes. It's all managed via Mats, Niagara, and BP. The system is also fed a vector to determine which direction and velocity to launch debris, by impact location and damage type.

The number of times we started a Fortnite event with ‘How the hell are we going to do this?’ It’s a lot like this video. Put all the ideas out there, even if they seem shit in the moment. This is also why safe spaces are critical to experiments and learning.
