Hey - Small issue with VOIP. It’s working but it only records quick little segments of what I’m saying. Sometimes it doesn’t seem to pick anything up at all. If I speak loudly, and quickly it picks up some of my speech. Is that some sort of sample rate issue?

I’d like to integrate movement similar to Lone Echo, where the user is in zero gravity and can add thrust to their pawn and ‘fly’ through levels. I tried messing with the Vive pawn, but experimenting with adding physics to the root causes everything to go nuts. I want to add movement without breaking all the work you’ve put into the pawn. Do you have any suggestions of how to begin implementing sort of movement? My thought was to activate physics and remove gravity but maybe I’m going about that wrong. Thanks so much.

For voip there is a voice threshold setting, you’ll have to google it as I can’t remember off the top of my head.

For the low gravity mode, set the movement mode to LowGrav with SetReplicatedMovementMode (with the normal nodes you have to define custom and then the custom number, that node packages it neatly).

It retains momentum without gravity influencing, you can boost with Add Impulse / Add Force or you can feed in CustomMovement commands like with the climbing movement mode. You can also set the PostClimbingMovementMode to LowGrav to have it seamlessly transition out from it and climbing. If you need to use it in multiplayer with rollback working correctly then if you are using addforce/impulse, you’ll want to use a Custom_MoveAction that applies it, that way it replicates correctly since those nodes do not normally replicate on engine characters.

And yeah, you don’t want to simulate the root component of a character when the character movement component is active.
