So I want to create an attack animation in Unreal Engine 4 (similar to the punching/melee attack in the Halo games) so how would I go about doing this sort of thing? I’ve seen plenty of tutorials for weapons, especially for third person, but how would I attack an enemy with the butt of the gun like in a game such as Halo? I already have a simple AI controlled enemy with a health system for myself and the enemy, as well as a melee animation, but how would I make the attack hit the enemy?
