Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint

It moves the Sphere component of your ball (collision sphere?)
Drag from Ball Reference and use SetActorLocation and it should work.

Few thoughts:

  1. Eject during play and locate ball in scene. (always useful for troubleshooting) Ball is probably located at camera position.

  2. Need to take location and project in direction from node (there are 2 pins). Use this to either raycast against ground plane , or onto a ground object.
