How do I add a sliding motion to character's punch?

I found the answer–one must do the following:

  1. Set up a notify and call the notify in the character’s Animation Blueprint
  2. Below the AnimNotify, Try Get Pawn Owner
  3. Get Movement Component from Try Get Pawn Owner
  4. Also Get Actor Forward Vector from Try Get Pawn Owner
  5. From the Get Actor Forward Vector, set up a Vector*Vector node and input the appropriate XYZ translations.
  6. From Get Movement Component, you need to Set Velocity
  7. Connect Get Movement Component to Set Velocity’s Target value.
  8. And finally, connect the Vector*Vector node to Set Velocity’s Velocity value.
