All traces use the physics engine - even tracelines.
As for simulating physics, that isn’t happening.
Look into UProjectileMovementComponent::TickComponent() again:

    if ([UpdatedComponent](https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/API/Runtime/Engine/GameFramework/UMovementComponent/UpdatedComponent/index.html)->[IsSimulatingPhysics](https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/API/Runtime/Engine/Components/UPrimitiveComponent/IsSimulatingPhysics/index.html)())
    {
        return;
    }

If we’re simulating physics, don’t run the code beyond this point.

If you’re talking about MoveUpdatedComponent(), it just calls UpdatedComponent->MoveComponent().
As for MoveComponent(), it uses ComponentSweepMulti().

In the end, aside from a line vs a component trace, your system is essentially the same as this, but in a Blueprint.
Performance wise, C++ trumps Blueprints and there is nothing stopping you adding air resistance in a Blueprint that uses a ProjectileMovementComponent.

I will take a deeper look then.
I thank you for pushing, even if I say no. I want to make the right choice.
