ACharacter method. Returns UCharacterMovementComponent.
Get Character MovementUE 5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 5.7updated 2mo agoPattern: Variables bCanDash(bool)=true, DashDistance(float)=1000, DashDuration(float)=0.2. Input → Branch(bCanDash) → SET bCanDash=false → GetActorForwardVector → Multiply(Forward, DashDistance) → Timeline(0→1 over DashDuration) → Update: VLerp(StartLoc, StartLoc+DashOffset, Alpha) → SetActorLocation. Finished → Delay(CooldownTime) → SET bCanDash=true.
Pattern: InputAxis MoveForward → Multiply_FloatFloat(A=AxisValue, B=1.0) → AddMovementInput(WorldDirection=GetActorForwardVector, ScaleValue=Product). Repeat for MoveRight with GetActorRightVector. Key pins: AddMovementInput inputs: 'WorldDirection' (Vector) and 'ScaleValue' (float). Input Axis event output pin is named 'Axis Value' (float).
A Pawn pre-built for bipedal movement. Comes with a CharacterMovementComponent for walking/jumping/swimming.
APawn method. WorldDirection is unit vector, ScaleValue 0-1. Works with CharacterMovementComponent.
Add Movement InputUE 5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 5.7updated 2mo agoWorldDirection is usually GetActorForwardVector or axis input. ScaleValue is axis value (-1 to 1).
AddMovementInputUE 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 5.7updated 2mo agoBuilt-in component on every Character that handles walking, jumping, swimming, flying. Configure max speed, gravity, etc.
bVelChange=true treats Impulse as direct velocity change (ignores mass). bVelChange=false treats it as a force impulse (mass-dependent).
AddImpulseUE 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 5.7updated 2mo agoPattern: Variables StartLocation(Vector), EndLocation(Vector). BeginPlay: SET StartLocation=GetActorLocation. Timeline MoveTimeline(Alpha 0→1 over Duration). Trigger overlap/button press → Play Timeline. Timeline Update: VLerp(StartLocation, EndLocation, Alpha) → SetActorLocation(Self, Result, bSweep=true). Finished: Delay → Reverse Timeline.
Continuous force — apply every frame. Use AddImpulse for one-shot.
