Client stopped updating after property replication

Development Character & Animation

hello.
i am creating a simple multiplayer “game” for the sake of learning. i created a character like so:

class GAMEPROTOTYPE_API Acpp_BaseGameCharacter : public AGamePrototypeCharacter
{
Acpp_BaseGameCharacter(const FObjectInitializer& ObjectInitializer = FObjectInitializer::Get());

	virtual void SetupPlayerInputComponent(class UInputComponent* PlayerInputComponent) override;

	void TestSwipe();
	
	UFUNCTION(Server, WithValidation, Reliable)
	void ServerTestSwipe();


	virtual void BeginPlay() override;
}

and in the cpp i added a custom movement component which is empty

Acpp_BaseGameCharacter::Acpp_BaseGameCharacter(const FObjectInitializer& ObjectInitializer)
	: Super(ObjectInitializer.SetDefaultSubobjectClass<Ucpp_ExtendedMovementComponent>(ACharacter::CharacterMovementComponentName))

and everything worked fine.

But after adding the following line :
UPROPERTY(Replicated,BlueprintReadOnly)
int32 Health=10000;

UPROPERTY(Replicated)
int32 Mana;


void Acpp_BaseGameCharacter::GetLifetimeReplicatedProps(TArray< FLifetimeProperty > & OutLifetimeProps) const
{
	DOREPLIFETIME(Acpp_BaseGameCharacter, Health);
	DOREPLIFETIME(Acpp_BaseGameCharacter, Mana);
}

the client stopped receiving updates on servers character (location, movement and animations) and also could not be controlled.

i tried to add bReplicates=true wherever i could thing of.

Hello,

you forgot about Super in GetLifetimeReplicatedProps()

void Acpp_BaseGameCharacter::GetLifetimeReplicatedProps(
	TArray< FLifetimeProperty > & OutLifetimeProps
) const
{
	Super::GetLifetimeReplicatedProps(OutLifetimeProps);

	DOREPLIFETIME(Acpp_BaseGameCharacter, Health);
	DOREPLIFETIME(Acpp_BaseGameCharacter, Mana);
}
