How to make a character rotate 90 degrees when some condition is true?

Hi, I want to make the first person character rotate 90 degrees every time when some condition is met.
The rotation doesn’t need to smooth. I used SetActorRotation( ), but it has no effect.
For example:

if (EvenSquare){
FRotator Rotator = GetActorRotation();
Rotator.Yaw += 90.f;
SetActorRotation(Rotator);
}

The actor here is a character in the first person template.
What have I missed?

Does it still have an effect out side the if statement ?
Also you should always add DeltaTime to it like:

 Rotator.Yaw += 90.f * DeltaTime;
3

Maybe try using AddControllerYawInput(90.f) instead of setting the character actor rotation.

It has no effect even outside the if statement. About your suggestion, my code for rotation is a void type method. It is not inside the Tick() function so no DeltaTime is associated with it.

Thanks it works!
