Replicated Capsule Component

This component is being added in v40. In previous versions, this functionality exists only in the M2M CharacterBase via Capsules and Mesh Transforms.

The Replicated Capsule Component handles the resizing, replication, mesh transform adjustment for render targets that are M2 characters. This is a default component on M2M CharacterBase.

Usage

Use the Replicated Capsule Component by adding it to a MorpheusActor. It will function whenever the MA's render target is an M2 character. In order for this to function in the crowd, you'll also need a Morpheus Animated Skeleton Component on the MorpheusActor.

The Replicated Capsule Component contains a (background) replicated CapsuleData field, which can be set on the auth client with SetCapsuleData and applies the data to the capsule component on the render target character on all clients.

It also has the following toggleable functionality:

• Automatically resizes the player's capsule according to the size of their avatar when it's loaded via URL. Toggle with bCapsuleMatchCustomMesh / SetMatchCustomMesh. Even if SetMatchCustomMesh is disabled, you can call UpdateCapsuleSizeFromAvatar to perform this resizing as a one-off.

• Automatically updates the skeletal mesh transform through the Morpheus Animated Skeleton Component to account for the capsule size. This keeps the player's feet on the floor after the capsule size has been changed. Set with bCalculateSkeletalMeshTranslationFromCapsule / SetMeshTranslationToMatchCurrentCapsule.

To access the capsule data, use the BP helper functions in UJM_CharacterCapsule .
