How can spawn an actor directly in front of a first person camera controller?

Well I am more used to Spawning things in C++ than I am in Blueprint so the parameters look odd to me. I did find a thread that may help: [Spawning Actors in Blueprints][1]

Specifically down at the bottom there is a diagram for spawning an actor

it may just be you need that “Make Transform” Node there…
Hopefully that helps some.

For my project I’m trying to make it so the player can spawn a shield in front of them.

It works when facing two directions, but I cannot figure out why it isn’t spawning correctly in the others.

I’ve attached screenshots of the problem in game as well as my blueprints for this. I’m fairly confident it has something to do with the rotation settings, I just can’t figure out what. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

That fixed it! Fantastic! Thank you so much for your answer!

Found myself in a similar dilemma and got to looking at your blueprint. It all makes good sense though is not far off from what I already have and does not serve to fix my situation but in my dithering and tiredness I got to looking at the event you have there. In examining the idea of using the right mouse button instead of the left to shoot I thought you might be crazy but then I thought “no the other right mouse button” as in some people actually use the mouse with their left hand which makes it quite reasonable to use the right mouse button as it would correspond to their index finger. Long story short…
tldr; are you left handed?

Thanks this helped me out a lot!
