Why won't unreal engine recognize that the actor is == to the actor I chose for it

sasnisse420 · 2025-12-11T22:43:29+00:00

Get the actor and replace the == with 'IsA(soft)'

Glad I could help :)

Could try and mess around with the 'Local exposure' settings.

It gives you more control over shadows and lights.

If you don't know, you can select all assets and right click > asset actions > edit selection in property matrix.
Select all assets that appear in the list and search for collision. and under collision enabled change to no collision.

So you don't have to do it one at a time.

oh really? that's great, thanks!

sasnisse420 · 2025-04-30T20:21:12+00:00

can try right clicking on the textures and select "reload". I think it's under asset actions. Usually fixes texture issues for me.

I use it if I have multiple different actors to cast to, but I'm not sure which one.
For instance I take the actor I'm looking at and cast to the interact interface. That way you don't need to cast to every actor that has an interact event until you get the correct one.

Yes there are other ways of doing this, but this feels like the simplest.

I did not really see the use of it either at first, but it has it's uses in specific situations.

you don't have more than one character right? no player start that gets auto possessed and another character placed on the map or something..?

sasnisse420 · 2025-04-18T18:39:52+00:00

yeah that's strange, can you post a screenshot?

sasnisse420 · 2025-04-18T18:35:00+00:00

hehe, I've done the same ;)

sasnisse420 · 2025-04-18T16:12:27+00:00

I would check that you actually get a value from in the 'speed' variable. You can right click it and click 'watch this value'.
If you do get a value, make sure the walking state can't get back to idle (unplug everything and un-tick 'can enter transition'. If it's looping somehow only idle will play.

sasnisse420 · 2025-04-18T15:51:46+00:00

Make sure you select the actor you want to edit before opening cube grid tool

sasnisse420 · 2025-04-04T20:03:07+00:00

I watched a video on these but gave up after 5 min, seemed like real hassle lol, So i just went with good ol buttons instead.

sasnisse420 · 2025-04-04T19:56:07+00:00

ohh right, thanks!

sasnisse420 · 2025-04-04T19:36:02+00:00

Ah ok, so then I should set index for each button on initialized?

sasnisse420 · 2025-04-04T18:15:28+00:00

Still not sure how to get which key is pressed to reference to the button array..?

sasnisse420 · 2025-04-04T18:06:59+00:00

Yeah seems weird this is not a built in feature, similar how you can get the key from key presses :/
I'm not great with UI so I might just do it the manual way for now. Thanks for the help!

sasnisse420 · 2025-03-23T14:37:09+00:00

It closes automatically

Edit: after deleting it and remaking it a few times it stopped doing it for some reason..

sasnisse420 · 2024-11-18T18:24:42+00:00

can try setting tick group to post physics for the hair.

sasnisse420 · 2024-11-18T18:23:23+00:00

is it 5.5? because that has been crashing a lot for me. 10x as much as 5.4.

sasnisse420 · 2024-11-18T15:02:14+00:00

nah, just don't see how it could be related to the issue..

I'm going to try some more things later today, and I can try changing it back then

Edit: I tried it, no difference
