So I’m having an issue where I can’t seem to actually detect collisions between the player and an object I created.
This is my first time in Unreal so this is probably an easy fix if you know what you’re doing. I’m using the third person blueprint and I want to have an event take place, specifically a destroy event, when the player walks into a ball I created. The ball has its own blueprint, a static mesh, physics, and a projectileMotion. I want this event to take place in the MyCharacter blueprint, so how do I effectively find out when the player runs into the ball? Overlap? how do I call the ball from the character blueprint?
I think you don´t understand me…When i say “Box trigger” i mean :
Viewport >>> add Volumes > Trigger
Drop the trigger in your level at ball position, and adjust it to size of your ball…then, *Create" one blueprint actor, open it, go to “Graph” minimize the blueprint, select your trigger in viewport, and go back to the Graph in blueprint and right click type in the search text “Overlap” and select EventBeginOverlap…and set the node beginoverlap to the next action…or event…
However, pay attention to this: you nedd a basic knowledge in Blueprint script to do this works…If you need, are many tutorials in blueprint to you acquire some knowledge about blueprints:
