UCharacterMovementComponent::InitialPushForceFactor

property Engine Blueprint Since 4.0

#include "GameFramework/CharacterMovementComponent.h"

Access: public Specifiers: UPROPERTYEditAnywhereBlueprintReadWrite

Description

Impulse strength applied to a physics object the instant this character first bumps into it while blocked.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Has no effect unless bEnablePhysicsInteraction is enabled.
• This is a one-off impulse on first contact — sustained contact force is instead governed by PushForceFactor.
• If bPushForceScaledToMass is enabled, the effective impulse also scales with the target object's mass.

Signature

float InitialPushForceFactor;

Example

Give an initial shove on impact C++

if (UCharacterMovementComponent* MoveComp = GetCharacterMovement())
{
	MoveComp->bEnablePhysicsInteraction = true;
	MoveComp->InitialPushForceFactor = 500.0f;
}
