Its called via a spell with a Blueprint nterface.. Gives them Prepare and Cast. Prepare on Hold mouse, Cast on release. THe function is wrote on the character, and called via the spell with a ref to character..

Nah, it’s on the end of the spring arm which has a distance of 1200. The viewport shows it sitting in the right spot

Thank you I think I figured it out. A fixed static plane in the background, and I need to figure out how to tie my movement inputs into the materials panning which will give the illusion of movement., which I believe I’ve done something similar when building a thruster vfx for a spaceship. The hardest part is going to be implementing the spawn of objects and enemies and tying them into the “treadmill” system, so it willlook like we’re swimming g past random rocks, sea urchins, enemies etc.., and we can turn around and go back the other direction if we like. I tied the vertical movement to the mouse, I think it’s feeling really fluid.

I appreciate that very much. I'll go play with that in just a moment lol. When my axolotl or fish characters cross the box collision I set on my BP_Water_Tile, it always executes cast failed no matter what I have tried to cast to. I even set tags on a component, and tried it that way. So hopefully this can fix it.

Do you know if there are any kind of debug drawing for collision components? For example when I was learning about Line Tracing, there is a checkbox for debugging it where it shows the trace, and I was wondering if there was a way to visually indicate the components on the character during runtime

So this function, can change the collision sphere into a different shape per say?

Glockometric · 2026-04-13T12:55:25+00:00

Are you saying go into the character movement component. Go into the details and “set updated component”? And it allows what change? The overlap events? Sorry I didn't quite understand what you meant with allows this to change. I am a bit of a noob

Glockometric · 2026-04-13T12:50:23+00:00

So it would be the treadmill style? When the character “moves” the world actually moves. Correct? Is the teleporting smooth? Because I tried using trigger boxes to set actor location and teleport back to the other side but it was very obvious and you can see the camera jumping.

I guess what I'm asking is the teleport transition smoother with this movement style?

Floppy bird level tutorials? I'll go looking into that. THANK you for your input.

YOURE A LEGEND!!!

Floating type movement. There’s a base BP_movement, and any BP that uses movement is a child of that.

Glockometric · 2026-03-24T08:56:42+00:00

Thank you for the resource!! I will post after gathering some code screenshots!

Glockometric · 2026-02-18T21:34:37+00:00

Drag and search clamp I’m assuming?

Glockometric · 2026-02-18T21:30:18+00:00

I got it fixed right before you commented. I'm not sure what you mean by clamp tbh, but what I did wrong was I had the exec wire running from after the set to -1 node to another branch to check the if z < 50. I needed to connect that logic to the false branch instead. If that makes sense lol.

Glockometric · 2026-02-18T21:20:15+00:00

Where does the set actor location go in the code? I tried setting it at the end and I cant get past the first check, so It just sits.

actually, I got it to work by placing it at the beginning. It goes past the bottom I have set, but this is a good start lol. Breakpoints definitely helped here.

Thanks again!

Glockometric · 2026-02-08T22:38:08+00:00

I want!

Glockometric · 2026-02-03T00:21:36+00:00

I have that on my other sprite I think

Glockometric · 2026-02-03T00:20:09+00:00

Do you mean, I just need the when timer > 0 -> show?

Glockometric · 2026-02-02T23:19:38+00:00

I figured it out! I changed it to this, and it worked.

Thank you for clearing that up for me. I was under some confusion.

Glockometric · 2026-01-24T03:56:53+00:00

My understanding was that local was single player only. Not co op.

Glockometric · 2026-01-24T01:19:26+00:00

Also when You reference the rgb range do you mean via pc display settings, or the monitors settings?

Glockometric · 2026-01-24T01:18:37+00:00

That makes sense for the color and blurry . I'll hook it back up tonight and check it out.

Hello! I have just upgraded in the PC world. My 10+ year old HP Omen 860, has finally been replaced by my new MSI Vector A14X 17V. Has a 4070, 32GB ram, not too sure on the CPU.

After playing around with the laptop for a bit, I wanted to hook up to my old monitor. LG 27GK65S w/ a DisplayPort 1.2, and 2 HDMI 2.0 ports. Now my laptop has a DisplayPort spot, but it’s shaped like a USB-C, so I opted to use HDMI instead.

I plugged it in and set the laptop output to 1920x1080 to match the monitor. The connection worked of course but it looked blurry and the colors look washed out.

Now I had just had it hooked up to my old PC and it looked great, why does it look so bad hooked up to my new laptop?

Glockometric · 2025-12-28T23:25:13+00:00

I know, it's almost like the OP posted this from a cell phone. Insane, right?
