When i do linetracesinglebychannel the debugline does not appear

[Bauti_peral]

well i decided to use gametracechannel1, the only thing that i dont understand is why bool bSucces is not working, i have searched why it could be the reason but i wasnt capable of found the solution

[DanM]

gametracechannel1 would be the custom collision channel you made, did you make one? Did you set up the responses you want for that channel?

[Bauti_peral]

yes gametracechannel1 is the custom channel i made and yes i setted the responses, also the booleean bsucces is not working because is returning false how i solve it?

[DanM]

Could you show all of that?

[DanM]

And in Unreal?

[Bauti_peral]

you mean a gameplay?

[DanM]

No I mean the custom channel that corresponds to GameChannel1 and the actor you want to hits response to that channel.

[Bauti_peral]

[DanM]

That shows that is ignoring the Sword channel when you want it to block.
