Hello, I’m using the following line trace to simulate gun shot in my multiplayer design with UE5.0. The line trace can collide with any objects except for the player’s body. Is there any collision settings that I need to modify to make this work? [image]

I am looking for Vehicle types: [image] The capsule is a Pawn type: [Untitled] The mesh is a Vehicle. Trace ignores the capsule as its type is not what we’re looking for, hits the mesh instead. If the capsule was a Vehicle: [image]

The default is to leave this on, which I’d recommend [image] If you want us to check out the trace, the main thing we need to know, is what’s here [image]

Hello @ClockworkOcean , I put another picture here below to show more info. In my game, there are up to 4 players and i’m expecting them to shoot each other with line trace. [image]

I put several more pictures to show the whole function of “Bullete Trace”. [image] [image] [image]

The bullet trace looks ok, but what is ‘loc end location’ in the other traces?

Are you trying to hit the actual mesh or simply the capsule component? It matters. For mesh (proper shooter), you’ll need to ignore the capsule. This will require you to create a new object collision channel for the Capsule Component… Project Settings → Engine → Collision [image] Next, Edit th…

Hello, @Rev0verDrive , As what you guided, I created a PawnCapsule object type and assigned it to Capsule component of my character as illustrated below. [image] Then, line trace for objects is used to specify which object to block the trace. But, when the mannequin shot another mannequin in fr…

We trace on the Visibility channel: [image] Yet we ignore it: [image] If we use the Visibility channel, the taget must block it (or at least overlap it for multitrace). We trace for these Objects types: [image] Yet the desired type is set to something else: [image] Or am I mixing things …

[image] Everynone: We trace for these Objects types: [image] Yet the desired type is set to something else: [image] Yes. That’s the intention. PawnCapsule type is assigned to Capsule component of Character. The purpose is to let Capsule ignore the line trace and let the skeletal mesh to…
