First Person Weapon Blueprint Help

[Rev0verDrive]

@DanielG1939

Simply to know if I can enable input on an actor blueprint that was attacthed to a player blueprint so a player can use the code in the blueprint to use the weapon without filling up the player blueprint with weapon codes. ex shooting, reloading, aiming via iron sights ect.

(Ps i did use the enable input node but it still wouldn’t let me use the gun.)

Player Input action -> Weapon Class Event

Firing a weapon is typically all coded in the weapon class. The input action (in pawn) calls an event in the weapon class. Said event processes the logic.

e.g.

Pawn class, Input action Fire

Weapon Class, Fire Weapon Event

Weapon class, firing mode logic

Each of these firing mode events call “Fire Weapon Sequence function”. This function spawns the projectile, handles recoil, animation (montage), sound fx, muzzle flash, ammo deduction etc.
