Are you storing a list of these HitActors in the blueprint? Or just one if there is only one line trace?
You can do a comparision check between the HitActor against each Actor in your for loop from the OnClicked function. If the actors are the same, set the material, otherwise do nothing.
I am triying to change the material for a specific actor, throught a widget button. Everything working fine for changing actor class material (it changes the material for all same class objects), but i want to change only for the specific hit actor with my linetrace.
i have created a hic actor variable, and i get this variable from the widget graph.
excuse me, how would you do that?
that hit actor is a varible i set from linetrace in first person, for each hit. as it is a reference of the object i am “looking at”, i guess i can reference to this variable and change only its material… cant find a way to do that
Nice! ny way, when you use the set material node, you cant reference the hit actor, so i creatd a variable for the hit component, and now it is working.
Here are two examples if you have one or multiple hit actors. On your tick function, make sure to set a variable in the blueprint to store the actor in order to do the comparison.
that script is extremely inefficient. your running a bit off tick and thats not the best way to get the actors that you need. you dont even have a line trace shown in the pictures.
