Trace Config

Anchor Point

All traces will use the owning actors transform as the anchor point.

By default, the anchor point is the location of the actor calling the function.

Shapes

Each shape as a Start and End location. You will want to think of these as offsets from the actors transform. So if you want a line trace that is 500 units forward, you will want to have the End.X = 500

Parameters

Parameters is the primary way of controlling the trace. For example, adding a delay, controlling its framerate, rotation and more.

Filters

After the trace has been performed, you can optionally filter out options through the FTraceHitFilter -> FilterHitResults function. For example, removing duplicate actors or removing the owner of the trace.
