C++ & Blueprint Status Checklist — All 135 Systems

Version: 1.0 | Generated: 2026-05-20

Complete status grid for every system in the UE5 Modular Game Framework. Use this to track: which systems have C++ code written, which Blueprint specs are complete, and what Blueprint assets remain to create.

---

Legend

Symbol	Meaning
✅	Done — C++ files written, BP spec complete
🟡	Partial — C++ stub (references siblings, needs subsystem wiring)
🔵	BP Spec Only — Full Blueprint spec exists, no C++ written
⬜	Content Asset — Create Data Asset/Table instances (not code)
❌	Not Started — Spec exists but asset not created

Abbreviations:

• C++ H/CPP = C++ header and source files exist in Source/Framework/
• BP Spec = Blueprint specification file exists in docs/blueprints/
• BP Asset = Blueprint asset to create in UE5 Content Browser
• MI Guide = Manual Implementation Guide (node-by-node) in spec file

Quick Action List — What to Build Next

Immediate (Phase 0 — Foundation)

• Create 11 Data Tables, import CSVs, register in Project Settings
• Create DA_GameTagRegistry Data Asset, assign TagDataTables
• Create BP_GameFramework (child of GI_GameFramework), assign TagRegistry
• Create BP_CoreGameMode (child of GM_CoreGameMode), set in Project Settings
• Create BP_CoreGameState (child of GS_CoreGameState), set in GameMode defaults
• Create BP_CorePlayerController + BP_CorePlayerState (BP specs 08 area)
• Create DA_ItemData instances for initial items (weapons, consumables)

Player Pawn Setup

• Create player pawn BP with GASP
• Add BPC_StateManager component → assign GatingTable
• Add BPC_InventorySystem component → set grid size
• Add BPC_DamageReceptionSystem component → set thresholds
• Add remaining 76 BPC_* BP children as needed

Data Asset Content

• Create DA_StateGatingTable instance with 37 rules
• Create DA_EquipmentConfig instance(s) for armor/weapons
• Create DA_AudioSettings, DA_RoomAcousticPreset instances
• Create remaining DA_* instances per project content
