I’m making an interactable and I am trying to access “GetPlayerController()” in my class, I’m having a bit of trouble figuring out. This is what I have tried:

#include “CoreMinimal.h”
#include “Components/TimelineComponent.h”
#include “GameFramework/Actor.h”
#include “InteractInterface.h”
#include “InteractBase.generated.h”

class AAGCharacter;
class UCurveFloat;

UCLASS()
class AG_API AInteractBase : public AActor
{
GENERATED_BODY()

public:
// Sets default values for this actor’s properties
AInteractBase();

protected:
// Called when the game starts or when spawned
virtual void BeginPlay() override;

public:
// Called every frame
virtual void Tick(float DeltaTime) override;

UFUNCTION()
void TimelineProgress(float Value);

FTimeline FCurveTimeline;
UPROPERTY(EditAnywhere,Category = "Movement")
UCurveFloat* CurveFloat;


UPROPERTY()
	FRotator StartLoc;
UPROPERTY()
	FRotator EndLoc;




AAGCharacter* Char;

APlayerController* PC = Char->GetControllerRotation();

//void GetInputMouseDelta(float& MouseX, float& MouseY) ;

UPROPERTY(EditAnywhere,Category = "Timeline")
	float ZOffset;

//UPROPERTY(EditAnywhere, Category = "Skeletal Mesh")
//	USkeletalMeshComponent* SkeletonMeshTurret;

};

this just shows an error? How can I access GetPlayerController()?

It’s a bit hard to understand what exactly you are trying to do, but the general way of accessing the current player controller in a single player game is through:

#include "Kismet/GameplayStatics.h"

UGameplayStatics::GetPlayerController(GetWorld(), 0);
