How to write the c++ equivalent of BindEventToOnParticleCollide

Development Programming & Scripting C++
1

Hi all

Im trying to set up my code so that when a particle effect hits a wall it leaves a decal. I’ve found other threads that do similar (Best way to make blood effects? - Content Creation - Unreal Engine Forums). The difference is that this one the guy spawns the particle system and the impact effect in blueprints.

I’d like to do it all in c++.

At present I have a hack that, when the component is spawned, it fires a blueprint event (and I can then follow what RhythmScript did).

What I’d like is for someone to explain how you bind the event in c++ and call a c++ method somehow. I started looking into the CollisionEvents, but that seems to be for when the event happens, rather than calling the listeners of the event.

Any help always greatly appreciated :slight_smile:

Thanks
