Trying to destroy sword on pick up

Why the Tick Event? Just call the Delay + Destroy where you currently set the boolean to true.

Also how do you actually equip the weapon, because if you destroy the actor, it’s gone. Are you only getting the Sword Mesh and give that the player or what are you doing there?
(Just want to save you from referencing the Sword actor while also destroying it, which wouldn’t work.)

Also is that a Singleplayer or Multiplayer game?

Its a single player game. I thought the OnComponentBeginOverlap was telling the game when the player was equipping the sword but it wasn’t doing anything. Instead I set up a bool in the main player character to tell the game when the player has the sword.

Which now works when I set this in the sword BP.

but that is doing what you said it would which is destroying both the equipped and unequipped sword. Not sure what to do from here.
