Possess works with AIController but not on PC?

I think that what is the case is that something else consumes the input before your pawn or controller receives it. Check out this page for the order in which objects are given the chance to use input: Input in Unreal Engine | Unreal Engine 5.3 Documentation

You want your playercontroller to capture it right? Or the pawn? The page also mentions you can make any actor highest priority by re-enabling accepts input. Not sure what the bp node for that is but maybe you can find it. Hope this helps!

I want my main character to fully possess the NPC I created so I can work the NPC logic inside its player controller instead of the character I’m actually controlling. Thus, it would make it easier to handle if I don’t have to add more code inside my character so I can execute actions such as displaying the next text or choosing an option.

I don’t see anything on how to increase the input priority of anything in the project settings or in the default section or my pawn/aicontroller/player controller. I don’t know what I should do.

@Keytotruth
is your pawn actually being possessed? is it a Pawn or a character?

I have a Character which is the main player and then I possess a Pawn with an AIController. Doing this, it works, but it won’t accept any input I give it. If I change my Pawn’s controller to a Player Controller, it just doesn’t do anything, so I’m assuming it’s not possessing it at all.
