ACharacter::ClientMoveResponsePacked_Validate

function Engine Since 4.20

#include "GameFramework/Character.h"

Access: public

Description

Validation function for the ClientMoveResponsePacked RPC. Called on the client before the implementation runs; returning false disconnects the client from the session.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Client RPCs are validated on the calling machine — for client RPCs this means the validation runs on the client, not the server. It is still useful as a sanity-check against malformed server data.
• The default implementation returns true unconditionally. In practice, client RPC validation is rarely overridden because the data originates from the trusted server, not the untrusted client.
