UCharacterMovementComponent::ApplyWorldOffset

function Engine Since 4.0

#include "GameFramework/CharacterMovementComponent.h"

Access: public Specifiers: virtualoverride

Description

Shifts internal movement-tracking state (OldBaseLocation, LastUpdateLocation, and any saved client moves) by the given offset when the world origin is rebased.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Only adjusts saved client moves for locally controlled autonomous proxies; simulated proxies and the server rely on other replication paths to stay in sync.
• You should not call this directly — it's invoked automatically by the engine's origin-rebasing system via UActorComponent::ApplyWorldOffset when the world origin shifts.

Signature

virtual void ApplyWorldOffset(const FVector& InOffset, bool bWorldShift) override

Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Default
InOffset	const FVector&	World-space offset being applied to shift the origin.	—
bWorldShift	bool	True when this call is part of a full world origin shift.	—

Return Type

void

Example

Tracking a custom location through origin shifts C++

void UMyCharacterMovementComponent::ApplyWorldOffset(const FVector& InOffset, bool bWorldShift)
{
    Super::ApplyWorldOffset(InOffset, bWorldShift);
    CustomTrackedLocation += InOffset;
}
