Alternative to Make Rot

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint
1

Hey Guys, I am trying to script a door that moves 140 units towards the x side. Therefore im searching a alternative command to Make Rot, like Make Move or sth. similar, does that exist?

This should help you (:

First of all Thanks for your quick reply, but im trying to make that for several doors, therefore not with that level blueprint but with an proper blueprint instead. Neverless i tryed to follow that tutorial but i cant create an reference to the Door?

//edit i tryed it now with the Door but i cant conect them because it says that the door is a static mesh. How can i transfer that static mesh into a movable mesh?

If you want to have several doors that work like that, you will want to create a Blueprint and give it a “SceneComponent” as Root. Then add a “StaticMeshComponent” to it and set your door mesh (also set it to moveable).

Then you can recreate the door logic within the Blueprint Event Graph. You will also want to add a BoxCollisionComponent, so that you can have an overlap event for your Door to trigger the opening and closing.

Now i have the Problem that it says that the Static Mesh component is not compatible with the Actor Reference
Thats how it looks right now

Ok first of all, you won’t need the second scene component. I meant to replace the root scene component with another one, because the first added component normally removes the default scene component.

So this is what you should have:

Now, you already created a timeline. Only to show you what i did:

This is also a Vector Track for the Timeline, with the X value set to 500 at 2 seconds! You will want to change this to your needs.

Here is the Event Graph. You don’t need the End Overlap, but with this the door closes when you leave the collision box.
You can find the additional Overlap (and other) Event when you highlight the CollisionBoxComponent by clicking on it and
looking at the right details section. There you need to scroll down and you can see this:

Here you only need to click on the + symbol to add it to the Event Graph.
