ill try that but if it applies to a 1st person game it might not work since i got a topview with a fix camera. I’ll give it a try thank you.

Its kind of working but still the box is still traced in the back of the player and i really dont want that since its a frontal melee attack. Is there a way to take the back part of the box and tell it to be trace from the player’s location?

You could put an arrow on you character and box trace from that for your reference?

How do i create a box trace in front of player?
