Minimap stuck when I enter a vehicle

Development Programming & Scripting

So I’ve recently created my a minimap in my game using this tutorial: Unreal Engine 4 Tutorial - Minimap (Basic) - YouTube 
Problem is, then I when I enter my vehicle, (gain possession, I think) the minimap gets stuck where the player used to be, 
would there be a way I could make the minimap follow the vehicle when your inside then the player when your not?

Thanks

When you posses something else you’re basically controlling a completely different actor. In this case you can either add the minimap functionality to the vehicle or attach the character to the vehicle.

Hey! Thanks for your reply, it makes a lot of sense. Would you happen to have any idea how I would go about attaching the player to the vehicle? I’m fairly new to UE4 so it would mean a lot.

Thanks

Right before you possess the vehicle you want to disable your characters collision and attach it to the vehicle.
