I'm working on my multiplayer game. The game is about pvp, you can shoot your friends and all stuff like that. I decided to make a score widget, which would show who is better. You might have seen something similar to what I'm talking about in fps games like csgo, valorant, overwatch, etc. Everyone should see the score.

I tried storing variables on servers character pawn. But pawn can be destroyed and score rollbacks to 0:0.

For replicated data that is persistent to respawn, you have two main options with the built-in game framework:

  1. Create your own subclass of AGameState and the replicated data you want in it. There is one Game state and it is replicated on all clients. See what the official wiki (bottom of the page) says about GameState. You can store game-related data in it as total kill count in team deathmatches or team capture points in domination matches.

  2. Create your own subclass of APlayerState and the replicated data you want in it. There is one Player state per player and it is replicated on all clients. See the official API of APlayerState. You can store each players' kill count in it for example or the number of objective a player captured. Make sure data is fed from the server and replicated to clients and not the other way around.

Unreal Engine comes with a powerful Game Framework, make sure to get familiar with it.
