Help me creating a delay

Hello, I am a beginner, and I am currently in the process of making a game and I used the first-person template. I want to delay the time it takes for the projectiles from the gun to despawn. I put a delay between “add Impulse at location” and “Destroy actor” In the event graph for the projectile. I put the delay as 10 and saved it. but it did not work. please help

Sounds like you’re doing just fine. What you couldn’t have known is this:

The template is set up is such a way that the projectiles destroy themselves no matter what. Adjust this value - perhaps to 60s?


This system is in place so the projectiles do not get to liver forever and eventually de-spawn.
