static UAbilityTask_DirectMove	TaskDirectMoveTowardsNavMeshLocation (UGameplayAbility OwningAbility, FVector TargetFeetLocation, float32 ReachDistance=5.000000, float32 ProjectionRadius=20.000000)
	Move character (MovementComponent, not by pathfollowing) in a straight line until TargetLocation is reached or overshoot. Expects that character moves on NavMesh. Will fail if movement cannot be performed on NavMesh.

	Move character (MovementComponent, not by pathfollowing) in a straight line until TargetLocation is reached or overshoot. Allows character to move outside NavMesh too. Be careful with this!

	This method will both create the task and call ReadyForActivation on it for you immediately.
static UAngelscriptAbilityTask	CreateAbilityTask (TSubclassOf< UAngelscriptAbilityTask > TaskType, UGameplayAbility ThisAbility, FName NewInstanceName=NAME_None, UObject Outer=nullptr)
	If you create a task using this function from AS, you must start it manually using ReadyForActivation. This is useful if you want to set up properties on the task before you run it.

Detailed Description

Moves the character towards target location in a straight line, using MovementComponent directly without pathfollowing. This task allows moving a character without interrupting an existing pathfollowing request and while pathfollowing is paused. As this by-passes the PathfollowingComponent, it cannot use some of it's features like avoidance, MoveFocus (you need to update controller rotation!).

Use this task when:

short distance movement only
don't need avoidance
target can be reached in a straight line
character should play walking animation
when another navigation request is active and it should not be interrupted by another navigation request
(optional) there is no NavMesh

◆ TaskDirectMoveTowardsLocation()

UAbilityTask_DirectMove TaskDirectMoveTowardsLocation	(	UGameplayAbility	OwningAbility,
		FVector	TargetFeetLocation,
		float32	ReachDistance = 5.000000 )

static

Move character (MovementComponent, not by pathfollowing) in a straight line until TargetLocation is reached or overshoot. Allows character to move outside NavMesh too. Be careful with this!

Parameters

TargetFeetLocation	CharacterLocation, that can be anywhere
ReachDistance	should not be 0.f

◆ TaskDirectMoveTowardsNavMeshLocation()

UAbilityTask_DirectMove TaskDirectMoveTowardsNavMeshLocation	(	UGameplayAbility	OwningAbility,
		FVector	TargetFeetLocation,
		float32	ReachDistance = 5.000000,
		float32	ProjectionRadius = 20.000000 )

static

Move character (MovementComponent, not by pathfollowing) in a straight line until TargetLocation is reached or overshoot. Expects that character moves on NavMesh. Will fail if movement cannot be performed on NavMesh.

Parameters

TargetFeetLocation	Location will be projected! Be sure it's on or near NavMesh - best pass NavAgentLocation
ReachDistance	should not be 0.f
