Can anyone help, how do I make the function when called on the server side SetActorRotation(NewRotation, TeleportFlagToEnum(bTeleportPhysics)); to stop arbitrarily replicating to the clients???
Just guessing here:
Is your actors rotation enabled by default?
This could replicate your rotation more often then you intend.
You can:
disable bReplicateMovement
AActor::AActor()
{
bReplicates = true; // Keep replication for other properties if needed
bReplicateMovement = false; // Prevent UE from auto-syncing rotation
}
or manually replicate your rotation.
I have already disabled Breplicate movement as seen in the photo.
In my case, I just want the server to in no way replicate its rotation to the clients, I just want each one to have its own transformation.
Hm then there must be some mistake.
Normally if you dont replicate the movement, this all here does NOT get replicated.
- Position (Location)
- Rotation
- Scale
- Velocity
- Simulated Physics Transform Updates
How do you call the funktion or how is your actor set up?
Aka replication does not happen randomly.^^
It’s inside the tick event, but I use the “bIs Server” condition and if it’s true, it sets the rotation.
It’s in blueprints, but I immediately saw that this can only be solved in C++

Okay well, you call this function when its the sever. So you want to run it on the sever?
Normally i ahve a setup like this:
If i want an event only on the client side, i normally only call the event “not replicated”. Then it simply does net get replicated.
Normally an event needs to be on called serverside and multicast, otherwise it would only update for the sever but not the clients.
Yes, but in my case it is not an actor of type character, pawn or controller type, just an actor. This started happening after I went to Unreal Engine 5.4.4, until version 4.27 this did not happen.
yes too
I already reported this as a bug to Epic Games a few years ago, but was ignored.
Nope sry then my remote help is at its limit.^^
Basically a pawn, character or controller gets replicated the same way an actor does.
Its the same logic behind it.
Sry remote i am atm out of ideas. And out of time today. If you need more help i could check it out, but that would fall under debugging or tutoring.^^
If i get another idea ill post it.^^
Ok, thanks
Ah you said it worked in UE4 but not UE5, try to rebuild that function in a UE5 fresh BP.
Might have failed to update right.

Now I’ve already created a workaround to fix this, basically I rotated a parent component (of the character) to which this actor (weapon) was attached instead of rotating the actor on the server side.
