I’m using ALS V4 for a shooter and have the character go ragdoll once health is 0.
Once the health reaches zero, the mesh is set to PhysicBody, then collision is enabled, then simulate physics is enabled. (default ALS ragdoll function)
Once these preparations are done, I wait for 100ms, then I apply an impulse to the mesh, to increase the death impact. This returns “ALS_AnimMan_CharacterBP_2.CharacterMesh0 AnimMan has to have ‘Simulate Physics’ enabled if you’d like to AddImpulseAtLocation.”
I also added an impulse when shooting the dead body, and I get the same error.
This class is a child class from the character class, so the mesh is the inherited character mesh.
Probably because you’re simulating physics only for the pelvis bone and the bones below it.
EDIT: you’re not actually enabling Physics Simulation in the screens provided.
Apologies for the necro posting, but just in case someone else comes across this problem:
If you’d like to keep EnablePhysicsInteraction true on your Character Movement Component, and have physical animation, then on BeginPlay you need to tell the character mesh to ignore the capsule when moving.
