Import or create an assassination animation that shows the player attacking from behind.
In the Animation Blueprint, add an animation montage for the stealth kill animation (use an Animation Montage so it can be triggered independently from the regular animation state).
Play Animation Montage:
In the player character Blueprint, if the conditions for a stealth kill are met, use the Play Montage node to play the assassination montage.
For the enemy, you can play a death animation or ragdoll effect to simulate them being killed.
End Enemy Logic:
In the enemy character Blueprint, add a function to handle death.
When the player performs the stealth kill, call this function to disable the enemy AI, physics, or health so they won’t interact anymore.
Disable Components:
In the enemy death function, disable the collision on the enemy’s Capsule Component.
Optionally, enable ragdoll physics or play a death animation for added realism. 5: Sound and VFX (Optional)
Add Sound and Effects:
Play a sound or add a visual effect (like a blood spurt) when the stealth kill animation plays for added impact.
UI Feedback:
You can add UI elements like a “Stealth Kill” prompt that appears when the player is in range for an assassination.
Testing and Tweaks
Test your setup thoroughly to ensure that the conditions trigger accurately only when the player is behind the enemy.
Adjust detection zones and animation timing to make the experience smooth and responsive.
