Hi, I’ve got a vr project in which i want to move the player around with a gamepad instead of the controller. As for test purposes I also want to add WASD to control the VR pawn around.  
I’ve added the input in the project settings.

I’ve tried to move VRorgin, Camera and capsule collsion (which does the collision) on walls.

I noticed when testing the blueprint stays stuck in the movement part? Hence the print hello for testing the input. Which is weird as i cannot move but the print hello is activated.

Ofcourse this script used to work. I think some settings are wrong but don’t know where to look

Please help

> I am trying to create an extremely simple box collider that moves down at a constant rate, however the box, even when set to “Block All” travels through everything. This is the tick/moving of the pawn, and to the right, we can see the details of the collider. And as an example of what I’m doing: Just trying to simply move this box down and have it stop when it reaches the floor, but it keeps going through.
