I wanted to add some updates to the custom Vehicle Movement component in the VehicleGame demo, that is in Pawns/VehicleMovementComponentBoosted4w.h/cpp
but I noticed the buggy pawn does not seem to use that component at all, instead utilizing VehicleMovementComponent4w
How can I set it up to actually use VehicleMovementComponentBoosted4w instead - or any other custom movement component derived from the default one?

ABuggyPawn::ABuggyPawn(const class FObjectInitializer& PCIP) :
Super(PCIP.SetDefaultSubobjectClass<UVehicleMovementComponentBoosted4w>(AWheeledVehicle::VehicleMovementComponentName))
{
}Thank you, that worked just fine. Although one issue I’m having is this: in the vehicle Blueprint the component displays the proper parent (“VehicleMovementComponentBoosted4w”), but when I try to access properties added in the “boosted4W” class, I have to cast the VehicleMovementComponent to VehicleMovementComponentBoosted4w.
Here is my class declaration:
UCLASS()
class UVehicleMovementComponentBoosted4w : public UWheeledVehicleMovementComponent4W
{
GENERATED_UCLASS_BODY()
UFUNCTION(BlueprintCallable, Category = "Game|Vehicle")
void Test1();
public:
UFUNCTION(BlueprintCallable, Category = "Game|Vehicle")
void Test2();
};
Both, test1 and test2 are only accessible after casting as seen in the screenshot below.
Is that to be expected or do I need to change code declaration?
It is not issue. I must cast the VehicleMovementComponent to VehicleMovementComponentBoosted4w.
