Line trace return value always false

When line trace hits I am using the return value as the condition of a branch - the branch actually works, but I am also setting a bool variable from the return value. displaying or using that variable elsewhere is always false, even if the hit is true. I am guessing that it is to do with the order of code being executed, i.e. the variable is reset to false and used in its false state prior to being set after the trace?

if this is the case, is there a work around?

Thanks

I figured it out. I was just taking a reference of the actor instead of casting to the actor in order to read the variable.
