Topdown/RTS-Camera with CharacterBase

This is a Topdown/RTS Camera (CameraBase) which is created with the unreal engine. You will also get a Example Character (CharacterBase), a super small HUD Class (HUDBase) to select one or multiple Characters, as well as a PlayerController (ControllerBase) Class.

There is also a CharacterSelectionIcon Class, and a Widget created and linked to the CameraBase. Finally there is a small example map.
