Syntax

bool K2_SetActorLocationAndRotation
(
    FVector NewLocation,
    FRotator NewRotation,
    bool bSweep,
    FHitResult & SweepHitResult,
    bool bTeleport
)

Remarks

Move the actor instantly to the specified location and rotation.

Returns

Whether the rotation was successfully set.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
NewLocation	The new location to teleport the Actor to.
NewRotation	The new rotation for the Actor.
bSweep	Whether we sweep to the destination location, triggering overlaps along the way and stopping short of the target if blocked by something. Only the root component is swept and checked for blocking collision, child components move without sweeping. If collision is off, this has no effect.
bTeleport	Whether we teleport the physics state (if physics collision is enabled for this object). If true, physics velocity for this object is unchanged (so ragdoll parts are not affected by change in location). If false, physics velocity is updated based on the change in position (affecting ragdoll parts). If CCD is on and not teleporting, this will affect objects along the entire swept volume.
SweepHitResult	The hit result from the move if swept.
