Trying to activate ability via tags in 5.3 using Effects and

[TheCorduroyKing]

Hi there, I’m trying to activate an ability using the Ability Trigger ‘Owned Tag added’ and applying an effect via a called to ApplyGameplayEffectSpectToTarget. The related ability does not trigger. I’ve tried debugging it and as far as I can see the effect gets applied successfully, and the ability has been given on startup to the actor in question.

Am I doing anything silly here, or is this just broken?

To make use of AbilityTriggers you supposed to attempt to activate ability by tag via TryActivateAbilityByTag:

Applying GE that adds some tags to ASC won’t attempt to activate any abilities
