Important/Additional Notes:

It seems the Trace Channels I made aren't importing. Go to Project Settings and add these two names to the Trace Channels and set them to ignore.

  • Damageable
  • Clingable

The Clingobjects are set to Clingable and the Damageable is for the damage. A tutorial is in the works showing how to set it up on existing players and AI.
