Events

BecomeViewTarget

simulated event BecomeViewTarget (PlayerController PC)

Overrides: Pawn.BecomeViewTarget

Destroyed

simulated event Destroyed ()

Overrides: Pawn.Destroyed

EncroachedBy

event EncroachedBy (Actor Other)

Overrides: Pawn.EncroachedBy

EncroachingOn

event bool EncroachingOn (Actor Other)

Overrides: Pawn.EncroachingOn

(Description copied from Actor.EncroachingOn)
called when this Actor is encroaching on Other and we couldn't find an appropriate place to push Other to

Returns:

true to abort the move, false to allow it

Warning: do not abort moves of PHYS_RigidBody actors as that will cause the Unreal location and physics engine location to mismatch

EndCrouch

simulated event EndCrouch (float HeightAdjust)

Overrides: Pawn.EndCrouch

Event called from native code when Pawn stops crouching. Called on non owned Pawns through bIsCrouched replication. Network: ALL

Parameters:

• HeightAdjust - height difference in unreal units between default collision height, and actual crouched cylinder height.

EndViewTarget

simulated event EndViewTarget (PlayerController PC)

Overrides: Actor.EndViewTarget

Falling

event Falling ()

Overrides: Pawn.Falling

FellOutOfWorld

simulated event FellOutOfWorld (class<DamageType> dmgType)

Overrides: Pawn.FellOutOfWorld

called when the actor falls out of the world 'safely' (below KillZ and such)

GetPawnViewLocation

simulated event Object.Vector GetPawnViewLocation ()

Overrides: Pawn.GetPawnViewLocation

(Description copied from Pawn.GetPawnViewLocation)
returns the Eye location of the Pawn.

Returns:

Pawn's eye location

GetViewRotation

simulated event Object.Rotator GetViewRotation ()

Overrides: Pawn.GetViewRotation

(Description copied from Pawn.GetViewRotation)

Returns:

the rotation the Pawn is looking

GetWeaponStartTraceLocation

simulated event Object.Vector GetWeaponStartTraceLocation (optional Weapon CurrentWeapon)

Overrides: Pawn.GetWeaponStartTraceLocation

Return world location to start a weapon fire trace from.

Returns:

World location where to start weapon fire traces from

HeadVolumeChange

event HeadVolumeChange (PhysicsVolume newHeadVolume)

Overrides: Pawn.HeadVolumeChange

HoldGameObject

simulated event HoldGameObject (UTCarriedObject UTGameObj)

HoldGameObject() Attach GameObject to mesh.

Parameters:

• GameObj - Game object to hold

Landed

event Landed (Object.Vector HitNormal, Actor FloorActor)

Overrides: Pawn.Landed

OnRanOver

event OnRanOver (SVehicle Vehicle, PrimitiveComponent RunOverComponent, int WheelIndex)

Overrides: Actor.OnRanOver

Called when an SVehicle wheel physically contacts this Pawn. We kill it!

PlayFootStepSound

simulated event PlayFootStepSound (int FootDown)

Overrides: Pawn.PlayFootStepSound

PlayFootStepSound() called by AnimNotify_Footstep

FootDown specifies which foot hit

PlayJumpingSound

event PlayJumpingSound ()

PlayLandingSound

event PlayLandingSound ()

PostBeginPlay

simulated event PostBeginPlay ()

Overrides: Pawn.PostBeginPlay

PostInitAnimTree

simulated event PostInitAnimTree (SkeletalMeshComponent SkelComp)

Overrides: Actor.PostInitAnimTree

called after initializing the AnimTree for the given SkeletalMeshComponent that has this Actor as its Owner this is a good place to cache references to skeletal controllers, etc that the Actor modifies

PostRenderFor

simulated event PostRenderFor (PlayerController PC, Canvas Canvas, Object.Vector CameraPosition, Object.Vector CameraDir)

Overrides: Actor.PostRenderFor

PostRenderFor() Hook to allow pawns to render HUD overlays for themselves. Called only if pawn was rendered this tick. Assumes that appropriate font has already been set

Todo: FIXMESTEVE - special beacon when speaking (SpeakingBeaconTexture)

ReplicatedEvent

simulated event ReplicatedEvent (name VarName)

Overrides: Pawn.ReplicatedEvent

Check on various replicated data and act accordingly.

RigidBodyCollision

simulated event RigidBodyCollision (PrimitiveComponent HitComponent, PrimitiveComponent OtherComponent, const out Actor.CollisionImpactData RigidCollisionData, int ContactIndex)

Overrides: Actor.RigidBodyCollision

(Description copied from Actor.RigidBodyCollision)
Called when a PrimitiveComponent this Actor owns has:

   -bNotifyRigidBodyCollision set to true
   -ScriptRigidBodyCollisionThreshold > 0
   -it is involved in a physics collision where the relative velocity exceeds ScriptRigidBodyCollisionThreshold

Parameters:

• HitComponent - the component of this Actor that collided
• OtherComponent - the other component that collided
• RigidCollisionData - information on the collision itslef, including contact points
• ContactIndex - the element in each ContactInfos' ContactVelocity and PhysMaterial arrays that corresponds to this Actor/HitComponent

Overrides: Pawn.StartCrouch

Event called from native code when Pawn starts crouching. Called on non owned Pawns through bIsCrouched replication. Network: ALL

Parameters:

• HeightAdjust - height difference in unreal units between default collision height, and actual crouched cylinder height.
