I have a lot to learn about UE5. Right now I’m working on modeling a full scale house, with functional doors and light switches. I know how to get doors to open and close with an E button interaction, but I want to add some more realism with an animated door handle when my doors are opened. Surely there’s a way for a static mesh to have more than one moving part. Maybe the door handle itself should be its own static mesh, but somehow attached to the door? I’m not sure how to make this work so any advice is much appreciated!
