UCharacterMovementComponent::Deactivate

function Engine Since 4.0

#include "GameFramework/CharacterMovementComponent.h"

Access: public Specifiers: virtualoverride

Description

Deactivates the movement component, clearing any accumulated forces and resetting the owning character's jump state once the component is fully inactive.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Temporarily sets NavMovementProperties.bStopMovementAbortPaths to false around the Super::Deactivate() call so in-progress paths aren't aborted, then restores it afterward.
• Only clears accumulated forces and resets jump state if IsActive() actually returns false after Super::Deactivate() runs — a subclass override of IsActive() could prevent that.
