Crouching not being replicated on dedicated server only

I am using default CharacterMovementComponent with a custom Character class(Overrode only Tick, SetupPlayerInputComponent and EndPlay functions)

That’s how the crouching is handled.

void ACCharacter::BeginCrouch()
{
	if (!bDied)
	{
		Crouch();
	}
}

void ACCharacter::EndCrouch()
{
	if (!bDied)
	{
		UnCrouch();
	}
}

LineTrace happen on mouse click

		MyOwner = GetOwner();
            FVector EyeLocation;
		FRotator EyeRotation;
		// Trace the world, from pawn eyes to crosshair location
		MyOwner->GetActorEyesViewPoint(EyeLocation, EyeRotation);

		FVector LookDirection = EyeRotation.Vector();
		FVector TraceEnd = EyeLocation + (LookDirection * Range);

		FCollisionQueryParams QueryParams;
		QueryParams.AddIgnoredActor(MyOwner);
		QueryParams.AddIgnoredActor(this);
		QueryParams.bTraceComplex = true;
		QueryParams.bReturnPhysicalMaterial = true;

		// Particle target parameter
		FVector TracerEndPoint = TraceEnd;

		EPhysicalSurface SurfaceType = SurfaceType_Default;

		if (GetWorld()->LineTraceSingleByChannel(Hit, EyeLocation, TraceEnd, ECC_Camera, QueryParams))
		{
			DrawDebugLine(GetWorld(), EyeLocation, TraceEnd, FColor::White, false, 1.0f, 0, 1.0f);
		}

This is what I expect to happen and what happens on listen server:

But this what happens if I use the same code on dedicated server:

I am really unsure what could cause the code to only not work on dedicated server.

Fixed by changing the character’s mesh “Visibility based anim tick option” to AlwaysTickPoseAndRefreshBones.
