AActor::OnTakeAnyDamage

property Engine Blueprint Since 4.0

#include "GameFramework/Actor.h"

Access: public Specifiers: UPROPERTYBlueprintAssignable

Description

Delegate broadcast whenever this actor takes any form of damage (point, radial, or generic). Bind to this in Blueprint or C++ to react to damage without overriding TakeDamage.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Only fired on the server (or in single-player). It is not replicated to clients — do not drive cosmetic feedback solely from this delegate without additional replication.
• This fires after TakeDamage has already processed the damage. The Damage parameter reflects what was actually applied, which may differ from what was requested if TakeDamage was overridden to modify it.

{
    UE_LOG(LogTemp, Warning, TEXT("Took %.1f damage"), Damage);
}
