Compile Error

USceneComponent::RelativeRotation’: cannot access private member declared in class 'USceneComponent

I tried to use GetRelativeRotation() but then it wouldn’t add a FRotator with a float

What are you trying to do? What is the code that is in the course and what have you written?

[mmuro10]

This is in the battle tank game archive.

Building the TankBarrel static mesh component in the cpp file.

void UTankBarrel::Elevate(float RelativeSpeed)
{
     auto ElevationChange = RelativeSpeed * MaxDegrees * GetWorld()-> DeltaTimeSeconds;
     auto RawNewElevation = RelativeRotation.Pitch + ElevationChange;
}

I was using UE 2.25.
It looks like this error doesn’t come up in version 4.22

I know this is an archived lesson, but I’m really enjoying it and I really want to finish the project. I appreciate you still helping out.

That would just be changing RelativeRotation.Pitch to GetRelativeRotation().Pitch

That fixed my issue. Thank you.
