Hello everyone, currently I’m trying to add Widget to Local Player Screen in c++ (in BeginPlay of my PlayerController class) like this
UI = CreateWidget<UWidgetAnimationControl>(this, UIClass, TEXT("Control_UI"));
UI->SetOwningLocalPlayer(GetLocalPlayer());
UI->AddToPlayerScreen(0);
but it only visible in one player screen

GetLocalPlayer() might be too early to access in PlayerController’s BeginPlay for this specific scenario.

Consider adding a frame-delay, or override function SetPlayer or ReceivePlayer, or reach the corresponding LocalPlayer in a different way somehow.

I know delay sounds ugly, but to me it seems to be the simplest functional approach here :

void ACustomPC::BeginPlay()
{
    Super::BeginPlay();

    GetWorld()->GetTimerManager().SetTimerForNextTick(FTimerDelegate::CreateWeakLambda(this, [this]() {
        UI = CreateWidget<UWidgetAnimationControl>(this, UIClass, TEXT("Control_UI"));
        UI->SetOwningLocalPlayer(GetLocalPlayer());
        UI->AddToPlayerScreen(0);
    });
}
