UE5 Change Log
- 2022/07/17 - 20220717 Release - Updated to UE 5.0.3.
- 2022/06/12 - 20220612 Release - Modifed the OWS Instance Launcher to stop using Process.WaitForIdle and instead wait until the server has made a call back to OWS to set the ZoneInstance Status to 2 (ready for players to connect). This may result in a slightly slower player connection time on spin up, but should be more reliable for making sure players don't try to connect too early and that the Status is always set to 2. The OWS Instance Launcher and OWSPlugin have been modified to work with this new method. ***** This update will break the MySQL and PostgreSQL versions of OWS 2. *****.
- 2022/05/30 - 20220530 Release - Added support for Add, Update, and Remove Ability from Character.

- 2022/03/25 - 20220325 Release - Moved SaveAllPlayerLocations batch process to the OWS Game Mode. Fixed an issue with UpdateCharacterStats.

Changes in V30
If you have not made changes to the OWS codebase, then just replace the following files in the source folder:
Source\OpenWorldStarter.Target.cs
Source\OpenWorldStarterEditor.Target.cs
Source\OpenWorldStarterServer.Target.cs
Source\OpenWorldStarter\OWSThirdPersonCharacterWithAbilities.h
Source\OpenWorldStarter\OWSThirdPersonCharacterWithAbilities.cpp

If you have made changes to the OWS codebase, then you may need to manually integrate the changes below:
Change line 7 of OpenWorldStarter.Build.cs from:
public OpenWorldStarter(TargetInfo Target)
TO
public OpenWorldStarter(ReadOnlyTargetRules ROTargetRules) : base(ROTargetRules)
The previous version is deprecated due to recent UE4 engine changes. The old version continue to work, but throws a warning about it being removed at some point in the future.
Add the following right below "TArray<FInventoryItemStruct> AllInventoryItems;" around line number 101 in OWSGameMode.h:

float GetCharactersOnlineIntervalInSeconds = 10.f;
FTimerHandle OnGetAllCharactersOnlineTimerHandle;
Add the following right above "protected:" around line number 162 in OWSGameMode.h:

UFUNCTION(BlueprintImplementableEvent, Category = "Character")
void ErrorGetAllCharactersOnline(const FString &ErrorMsg);
//Is player online
