UEFN Capture The Flag | Capture area does not capture flag

Hi,
I followed the UEFN tutorial for the Capture the Flag game as best as I can.

But when testing, nothing happens when I stand in the capture zone with the captured flag in my hand.

Any idea what could be missing?

If I drop the flag and it returns, the capture area deactivates as expected.

Also I’m testing it by myself, does it need at least 2 people to have 2 teams to work?

Thanks!

I had missed that the Capture Area Device needs to have the Flag item set. I don’t know why, but I just assumed that the device would always capture flags.

The documentation does not include the Item List setting in the table of Capture Area Device options. Above the table, the document says:

Once you have the Capture Area devices placed, customize the options for each as shown below.

However, the Item List setting is mentioned above that line, which I missed.

I suggest that the document be updated slightly to read:

Once you have the Capture Area devices placed and the Flag item assigned, customize the options for each as shown below.

@Flak the documentation is still out of date…

Question, how can I test this for the second team?
