Materials and Blueprints in Unreal

Scene Preview

The Material uses 2 masks and sine and cosine wave values that update with time to animate the material. These masks and values are used to interpolate 3 colors to produce the final animated material

G Input Dynamic Material

The material also has a noise texture that updated the world position offset when G is pressed. It is also attached to a cosine function . A timeline is used to change the value of the noise multiplier variable in the dynamic material to begin and end the material animation

Trigger Box Event

The trigger box begins a bounce Niagara particle effect when stepped on and switches it off when you step off it
