ACharacter::SimulatedRootMotionPositionFixup
#include "GameFramework/Character.h"
Access: public
Description
Corrects the position of simulated proxies playing root motion by blending toward the server-authoritative position. Called automatically by the Character Movement Component during simulation updates.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • This runs only on simulated proxies (ROLE_SimulatedProxy). Do not call it on locally-controlled or authority pawns — the result is undefined and can corrupt movement state.
- • The correction blends smoothly rather than snapping, so there is a brief desync window after a server correction that may be visible to observers on other clients.
