Unreal Engine 5 C++ Help Weapon Not Attaching / Pawn Not Ap…

Im working on a C++ Unreal Engine 5 assignment involving a BaseCharacter, Rifle, and Projectile system. The project compiles successfully, but the behavior is incorrect and Im stuck at the same point for the second submission attempt.

Below is the instructor feedback I received:

Base Character (18 pts) 11/18

• No ChildActorComponent used (was using SpawnActor and AttachToComponent directly)
• ChildActorComponent pointer not declared in header
• AnimBP pointer not declared in header
• Missing mesh location/rotation setup in constructor
• Missing AnimBP caching in BeginPlay
• Weapon object must be set before checking for nullptr
• Must use ChildActorComponent with SetupAttachment and SetChildActorClass

Rifle (8 pts) 6/8

• No FName variable declared
• SkeletalMeshComponent must be declared in the header (not using FindComponentByClass)
• Proper casting and ownership setup required

Projectile (24 pts) 23/24

• Timer uses hardcoded 3.0f instead of declared float variable

Current issues:

• The pawn does not appear correctly when playing (or behaves unexpectedly when ejecting)
• The weapon does not attach/render properly
• The ChildActorComponent behavior may be incorrect
• Firing behavior is inconsistent
• Everything compiles successfully

Assignment requirements include:

• Using UChildActorComponent for the weapon (no direct SpawnActor)
• Attaching the weapon to a skeletal mesh socket
• Spawning the projectile from a muzzle socket
• Converting AnimBP logic from Blueprint to C++
• Proper separation of logic between BaseCharacter and Rifle

I am attaching the relevant C++ files:

• BaseCharacter.h / .cpp
• Rifle.h / .cpp
• Projectile.h / .cpp

I am needing someone to help me correct the structural and logic errors directly in the code, and explain what is causing the pawn and weapon to behave incorrectly.

Thank you.
