-> Combat Component <-

UCombatComponent is a replicated UActorComponent responsible for handling all combat-related logic for a character, including:

• Weapon equipping and swapping

• Firing logic (Projectile, Hitscan, Shotgun)

• Reloading

• Aiming and FOV interpolation

• Crosshair spread computation

• Ammo management

• Multiplayer synchronization (Server / Multicast RPCs)

• HUD updates

It centralizes combat logic outside the character class, keeping the character focused on movement and animation.

-> Lag Compensation Component <-

Purpose:

Enable server-side rewind to fairly validate hits under client latency by recording historical hitbox transforms and rewinding hit collision checks to a player’s past pose.

It’s owned by APartyCharacter; created in the character constructor and wired in PostInitializeComponents.

-> Gameplay Ability/Effect System Usage <-
