Sequence only shown to 1 player instead of multiple

Hello,

  • I created 1 cinematic device with 1 sequence that has 1 camera

  • I wish to show the sequence to 3 of 10 players (At the same time). The other 7 players should not see the sequence.

  • When calling the play function(Cinematic Device) on the 3 players it will only show it to one of the players.

Cinematic Device Settings:

I could create 3 cinematic devices with 3 copies of the sequence, but that seems to me an inefficient way to solve the problem.

Hey, yeah I think this problem has been here for a while ?

You can either do a sequence pool, and you pick an available sequence device in the pool whenever you need to play on a single instigator. (see this Snippet By Twin)

Or you can also swap the players team to another one and set the sequencer Visibility to Instigator's Team. I guess one could instantly swap their team to their original team right after playing the sequence? :thinking: (maybe even on the same frame, needs testing though)

The team solution sounds interesting. I will have a go at it.

I believe this still is an issue.
