Remarks

Set up a tick function for a component in the standard way. Tick after the actor. Don't tick if the actor is static, or if the actor is a template or if this is a "NeverTick" component. I tick while paused if only if my owner does.

Returns

true if this component met the criteria for actually being ticked.

Parameters
