Actor component server function wont call

Development Programming & Scripting

It just wont call the ServerFunction

Character.h

UPROPERTY(EditAnywhere)
class UActorComponent* ActorComp = nullptr;

void CallActorCompFunc();

Character cpp

ActorComp = CreateDefaultSubobject<UActorComponent>(TEXT("ActorComp"));
if (ActorComp)
{
	ActorComp->SetIsReplicated(true);
}

void ACharacter::CallActorCompFunc()
{
	ActorComp->Function();
}

ActorComponent.h

void Function();

UFUNCTION(Server, Reliable)
void ServerFunction();

ActorComponent cpp

UActorComponent::UActorComponent()
{
	SetIsReplicated(true);
}

void UActorComponent::Function()
{
	ServerFunction();
}


void UActorComponent::ServerFunction_Implementation()
{
	GEngine->AddOnScreenDebugMessage(-1, 5.f, FColor::Purple, TEXT("ServerFunction called"));
}

i have been reading that it might be because of the Actor Component not having an owner

3

The actor component is calling the server function is this wrong

Is the character the only one that can call server functions

4

SetIsReplicatedByDefault
(
const bool bNewReplicates
)
this is how you set replicate in constructor. set relevancy to always relevant .

5

Would it be because of the actor component not being replicated

6

I set

SetIsReplicatedByDefault(true)

But it didn’t do anything and the server function isn’t being called

7

i dont know what type of **sorcery ** and witchcraft this is but

i found a solution

all i did was crate a server function in character.

CallActorCompFunc called the new character serverfunction which then called the component function and it worked

Dont know why
