Trying to damage the player with other actors

[Mxchael77]

So far I have made it so the player deals damage to other actors but when I try to damage the player using a simple collision box where it deals damage when overlapped I cannot seem to damage the player. Just to mention I made my health system in the ReciveAttack funtion. May someone help me?

Hi,

I think you might have missed the damage events in player character. When you call “Apply Damage” different damage events like Any Damage, Point/Radial Damage will be called.

Can you add an event in your player character called “Event Any Damage” and then call your receive attack in there?

Make sure the damage you’re applying is greater than 0, otherwise damage events will not fire.
