hello,
with my code is possible to spawn only in the floor or other objects, but how to spawn in the air? So if clicked above from floor I want to spawn above where click on the mouse cursor?
Hello,
The line trace returns the hit location, which is the world location of the hit. A location vector has 3 components, ‘X’, ‘Y’, and ‘Z’. In Unreal the ‘Z’ axis represents the ‘height’, so you will need to either replace the value of the ‘Z’ component with a constant value, or you can also add to it.
Something like this, in this case the Actor will spawn ‘1000.0’ units above the object that the trace hit:
That seems a bit convoluted to me, PlayerController actually has a function called ‘ConvertMouseLocationToWorldSpace’ that will directly give you the world location of the mouse.
Something like this (if you are not using a top-down perspective, you might want to offset something else than the MouseZ for the trace, or if you have an in-game screenshot about what you are trying to achieve that would also help giving a more precise solution):
thanks for that!
