Recipe: Round-based game (3 phases)

Ingredients

• Phases: lobby, game, ending.
• Config round_time — int, default 180 (seconds).
• UEFN devices: 1 Timer Device (for round timer), 1 Teleporter for lobby spawn, 1 Teleporter for game spawn.

Build it

1. 1

   Declare the phases

   Game Data → Phases → add lobby, game, ending in that order. The first one declared is the starting phase.
2. 2

   Route joining players

   WHEN On Player Joined IF Is in phase lobby → DO Activate Teleporter lobby_tp. And the symmetric one for game phase, sending them to the game spawn.
3. 3

   Lobby → game transition

   WHEN On Timer Elapsed (LobbyTimer) → DO Change Phase to game.
4. 4

   On game start, teleport all

   WHEN On Phase Start (game) → DO Activate Teleporter game_tp — sends everyone to the game spawn at the moment of transition.
5. 5

   Game → ending

   WHEN On Timer Elapsed (RoundTimer) → DO Change Phase to ending, Show HUD "Round over".
6. 6

   Ending → loop back

   WHEN On Phase Start (ending) → DO Enable Timer (LobbyResetTimer), then WHEN On Timer Elapsed (LobbyResetTimer) → DO Change Phase to lobby.

Generated Verse

game_phase := enum:
    Lobby
    Game
    Ending

var CurrentPhase:game_phase = game_phase.Lobby

LobbyTimer.SuccessEvent.Subscribe(OnLobbyTimerEnd)

OnLobbyTimerEnd(Agent:?agent):void=
    set CurrentPhase = game_phase.Game
    PhaseChangedEvent.Signal(game_phase.Game)
    # On Phase Start (game) handler runs here:
    GameTP.Activate(Agent?)

Variations

• Min-player gate — gate the lobby→game transition with IF Player count ≥ 4.
• Countdown HUD — show the round timer's remaining seconds via Show Variable HUD on a dedicated variable.
• Best-of-3 — add a round_number variable; end the match instead of looping when it hits 3.
