The events not getting called

Unreal Courses Talk

#1

could somebody please help me with this, I created two Delegated and exposed them to blueprints (basically what Ben does) but the event does not get called inside the blueprints
Here is my code:

THE .h file:

DECLARE_DYNAMIC_MULTICAST_DELEGATE(FOnOpenDoorRequest);
DECLARE_DYNAMIC_MULTICAST_DELEGATE(FOnCloseDoorRequest);
UCLASS( ClassGroup=(Custom), meta=(BlueprintSpawnableComponent))

class BUILDINGESCAPE_API UOpenDoor : public UActorComponent
{
GENERATED_BODY()

public:
UOpenDoor();

protected:
virtual void BeginPlay() override;

public:
virtual void TickComponent(float DeltaTime, ELevelTick TickType, FActorComponentTickFunction* ThisTickFunction) override;

private:
UPROPERTY()
AActor* owner;
UPROPERTY(EditAnywhere)
ATriggerVolume* pressurePlate = nullptr;
UPROPERTY(EditAnywhere)
float requiredMass;

UFUNCTION()
	float GetTotalMassOnPlate();
UFUNCTION()
	void OpenDoor();
UFUNCTION()
	void CloseDoor();

public:
UPROPERTY(BlueprintAssignable)
FOnOpenDoorRequest onOpenRequest;
UPROPERTY(BlueprintAssignable)
FOnCloseDoorRequest onCloseRequest;

};

THE .cpp file:

UOpenDoor::UOpenDoor()
{
PrimaryComponentTick.bCanEverTick = true;
owner = GetOwner();
requiredMass = 50;
}

float UOpenDoor::GetTotalMassOnPlate() {

float totalMass = 0;

if (pressurePlate != nullptr) {
	TArray<AActor*> overlapingActors;
	pressurePlate->GetOverlappingActors(overlapingActors);

	for (auto* currentActor : overlapingActors) {
totalMass += currentActor->FindComponentByClass<UPrimitiveComponent>()->GetMass();
	}
}	

return totalMass;

}

void UOpenDoor::OpenDoor() {
onOpenRequest.Broadcast();
return;
}

void UOpenDoor::CloseDoor() {
onCloseRequest.Broadcast();
return;
}

void UOpenDoor::BeginPlay()
{
Super::BeginPlay();
}

void UOpenDoor::TickComponent(float DeltaTime, ELevelTick TickType, FActorComponentTickFunction* ThisTickFunction)
{
Super::TickComponent(DeltaTime, TickType, ThisTickFunction);

if (GetTotalMassOnPlate() > requiredMass) {
	OpenDoor();
}
else {
	CloseDoor();
}

}

Anybody who faced a similar issue and solved it or who knows what is going wrong, please help me understand where I made a mistake. Until then, I will stick with lerping the door inside c++ for its animation.

Thank you.
