So I’ve been having this issue off and on. I have my input set up on my controller which fires events on the character. Unfortunately not all of the character events are firing properly from the controller. When I use breakpoint the flow stops at the event call on the controller and doesn’t proceed to the character. Placing a breakpoint on the event within the character doesn’t fire at all. When I had this problem the first time, I just closed out and reloaded my project and it worked fine, but now I’ve got an instance of this that isn’t going away. I even tried remaking the event on the character and rewiring all the appropriate calls on the controller; no dice. This is happening in both 4.22.3 and 4.23.1. Any advice would be appreciated
Hard to say without further information. Screenshots of your blueprints might help.
Is it a multiplayer game?
Cheers
Unfortunately there’s not a lot to show as far as my blueprint goes, but here it is, pretty basic stuff. Even with the controller’s breakpoint farther back, it still stops at that event/function call and doesn’t call the event within the character.
No, thankfully this isn’t a multiplayer game, so I don’t have to deal with that headache, but I am going to be switching between player and AI controlled characters, so the input needs to be in the controller not the character.
Thanks!
Haha! Thank you!

User error for the win. Editor was referencing wrong instance of character in the world, so breakpoint wasn’t firing on the one that was selected, and UE wasn’t picking up on the one that was firing. Variables I was using to check were being changed after a delay farther along in the event, so looked as if they weren’t being changed, when in fact they were being changed then changed back.
Feeling stupid, but there it is.
Closed.
