In Part 9 of my Unreal Engine 5.1 Endless Runner series, I add proper coin collectables—starting from importing the coin mesh and pickup sound, all the way to spawning, collecting, saving, and showing coins on the HUD. I import the assets into the Runner/Meshes folder, apply M_Metal_Gold (and if you don’t see it, I show how to add Starter Content), then create a simple BP_Coin with a static mesh + rotating movement so it looks like a real pickup in-game. After that, I go into BP_Floor and build dedicated Coin Spawn Points (separate from obstacle points), and I color the arrows so it’s easy to debug in the viewport. Then I copy my obstacle spawning logic into a new Spawn Coins function, tweak the ranges (I prefer 75 for spacing, and 5–8/9 for spawn count), and keep the Switch on Int because it helped me control over-spawning. Finally, I handle overlap logic to increment a Coins variable in BP_RunnerGameMode, play a 2D pickup sound, and destroy the coin. To prevent coins resetting on restart, I save CoinValue in Runner_SaveGame, load it on BeginPlay, and bind it to my Gameplay_UI so the HUD always reflects the saved total.
