MY WORK
EXPLANATION
CODE
Gameplay / Gamemode
The Challenge:
We needed a flexible game mode that could dynamically alter rule sets mid game, like shifting from Free for All to Gun Game, controlled by an overarching Game Manager that monitors the entire match.
My Solution:
The system uses abstract Rule Set classes structured as a state machine to handle the active gameplay rules. These Rule Sets use distinct methods to begin play, handle mode Transition, and end games, allowing the system to initialize and swap rules on the fly.

Enhanced Input
The Challenge:
We needed to allow players to rebind their keys, but the engine player controller does not exist yet when the rebinding occurs.
My Solution:
We cache the updated inputs in a separate subsystem during the configuration phase and apply them later during player controller initialization.
Extra:
We save the updated keybinds locally so the settings remain intact across multiple play sessions.
