Slow motion effect using SetGlobalTimeDilation

Activate: SetGlobalTimeDilation(0.2) → SetTimerByFunctionName(FunctionName='EndSlowMo', Time=2.0 (real time), bLooping=false). IMPORTANT: Timer Duration uses GAME time, so compensate: actual timer Time = desired_real_seconds * TimeDilation (e.g. 2.0 real sec at 0.2 dilation = 0.4 game sec). End: SetGlobalTimeDilation(1.0). For player-only slow motion: use CustomTimeDilation on the pawn (set to 5.0 when world is 0.2).

Delay — latent delay node pauses execution for Duration seconds

UKismetSystemLibrary::Delay. Latent node — only works in Event Graph, not functions. Output exec displays as Completed.

Smooth camera follow with lag using VInterpTo every tick

Pattern: EventTick → GetActorLocation(TargetActor) → VInterpTo(CurrentCameraLocation, TargetLocation, DeltaSeconds, InterpSpeed) → SetActorLocation(Camera, Result). InterpSpeed 3-10 for smooth follow. Alternative: use SpringArmComponent with CameraLag enabled.

SetGlobalTimeDilation — slow down or speed up the entire game

1.0=normal, 0.5=half speed, 0.0=pause. Affects physics, animations, timers.

Smooth camera follow with spring arm using RInterpTo

Pattern in PlayerController or Character: EventTick → GetControlRotation → RInterpTo(Current=CurrentCameraRot, Target=ControlRotation, DeltaTime=DeltaSeconds, InterpSpeed=10.0) → SetControlRotation(NewRotation=InterpResult). OR: use SpringArmComponent with CameraLagSpeed and bEnableCameraLag=true for physics-based follow. RInterpTo: 'Current' and 'Target' are Rotators. DeltaTime from Tick's 'DeltaSeconds' output.

SetGlobalTimeDilation — speed up or slow down game time

UGameplayStatics. 1.0=normal, 0.5=half speed, 2.0=double speed. Minimum 0.0001.

FInterpTo_Constant — constant-speed interpolation toward target

Moves at constant speed unlike FInterpTo which decelerates.

Create a Blueprint for a spotlight that follows the player smoothly using RInterpTo

Create a Blueprint Actor that rotates slowly on EventTick using a RotationSpeed variable

SpawnSoundAtLocation — spawn persistent audio component at location
