ACharacter::ServerMoveOld_Validate

function Engine Deprecated Since 4.0

Deprecated: Use ServerMovePacked validation instead.

#include "GameFramework/Character.h"

Access: public

Description

Validation function for the ServerMoveOld RPC. Returns false to kick the client. Default implementation always returns true.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Deprecated alongside its RPC.
• Returning false disconnects the client for all future connections in the session — this cannot be undone short of a reconnect. Only return false for clearly malicious data.
