Custom members in the pawn class?

[Pojo226]

Hey, first off, I'll admit I'm new to UDK, so this is probably a very simple question.

Anyways, I'm trying to make a game in which players have an energy variable they need to maintain along with health. This is the code that I have in my pawn class, and when I use Kismet's Get Property, with either energyMax, or energy, I can get a value for the custom property.

class HGPawn extends UTPawn;

var int energy;
var int energyMax;

simulated event PostBeginPlay()
{
    super.PostBeginPlay();
    energyMax=100;
    energy=100;
}

However when I try to use these variables in my HUD, I get the error "Error, Unrecognized member 'Energy' in class 'Pawn' Below is the line of code from my HUD that tries to use the energy variable.

Canvas.DrawTextCentered(PlayerOwner.Pawn.Energy);

If anyone has any advice, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You need to cast it to a HGPawn .. HGPawn(PlayerOwner.Pawn).Energy
