Playing mode problem

I am currently facing an issue with the functionality I’ve implemented for an object in Unreal Engine. The functionality works seamlessly when I use “Play in Viewport,” but I encounter a discrepancy when previewing it in “Simulate.”

To provide some context, the project comprises various elements, all of which function as intended during simulation. However, I am specifically grappling with ensuring the functionality performs consistently between “Play in Viewport” and “Simulate.”

I would greatly appreciate any insights or guidance on how to troubleshoot and resolve this discrepancy. Are there specific considerations or steps I should take to ensure the functionality is executed correctly during simulation?

What is the problem, actually.

Many things that work in PIE, do not work in simulate.

I’m working on a scene in Unreal Engine and trying to add controls to it. I’ve installed the QuickVP plugin and followed the tutorial instructions to set everything up. However, I’m facing an issue – the controls don’t seem to work in simulation mode. It’s crucial for my project that the controls function during simulation. I’m seeking help to figure out if there’s a way to make it work in simulation mode as well. Any advice or solutions would be greatly appreciated

Well, there isn’t really any user input in simulation mode, that’s why it’s not working.

Also, this plugin is unsupported now. Maybe use something else?

In general though, things that require input will not work in sim mode.

Thank you for your reply.

Can you please advise me on which supported plugin I can use?

It really depends massively on what you want from the plugin. There are a lot of free VP plugins on the marketplace. A lot of them expect you to be using some external system…

I’ve designed a virtual scene with three monitors, each displaying a different video background. I’m looking for a way to switch these video sources using a control panel.

I have no idea, sorry. It’s a good idea to post in the relevant section

and ask what people commonly use.
