UE4 (4.23); VS2017 PRO

This Code compiles w/o any errors, but in game it does not change anything.

#pragma once

#include "CoreMinimal.h"

#define COLLISION_WEAPON            ECC_GameTraceChannel1

// *** end of CoopGame.h

ASCharacter::ASCharacter()
{
    // make capsule to ignore Weapon`s damage (projectiles)
    GetCapsuleComponent()-&gt;SetCollisionResponseToChannel(COLLISION_WEAPON, ECR_Ignore);
    GetCapsuleComponent()-&gt;SetCollisionResponseToChannel(ECC_PhysicsBody, ECR_Ignore);
}

Did you add the COLLISION_WEAPON to to the Trace Channels in the Editor?

My example is COLLISION_HEAD, but its no different depending on your collision channel number…

Sorry, I forget to post this screen, but I had it in my Project.

for now, I have set it in the editor. but this is not very handy. I would like to set it from C++
