How to Make a Grappling Hook

This Unreal Engine 5.5 video is about building a simple Grappling Hook system, based on finding a Grapple Location with a Line Trace and pulling the Character towards it. We start by creating a simple Crosshair Widget to make aiming easier, and then add a Grapple Input Action. We then make the Grapple functions, and in Grapple Start, we add a Line Trace, and talk about Object Types and how to find them in the Editor. Next, we add Grapple Tick, which uses Add Impulse to move the character towards the Grapple Point. And lastly, we add a Cable Actor to make it look a little better. Thanks for watching.
