To deal with the transparent areas it might be the easiest to add another object to the health bar. In total we have then three: a frame texture, a "future/past health" material, and a "present health" material. | To deal with the transparent areas it might be the easiest to add another object to the health bar.

How to increase values over time? It looks like "timeline" don't have inputs for start and end time and timers don't work in character BP. Even loops are problematic: if they contain a delay node it is simply ignored. The solution seems to be a custom event. Once triggered it will increase or decrease the health value and call itself again if the certain conditions are still true. The animation seem smooth enough with a 0.1 second delay. | |||
