• Unreal Version: 5.0.0
• Template: First Person
• Project Name: MyProject

Big credit to the Shooter Game Project. It's a wonderful learning resource. I just tried to split out the weapon instant fire trace code from the project and simplify it so I could better understand it.

this code is ignoring weapon spread

1. update the HUD.cpp file so the crosshair is in the center of screen. The crosshair texture is 16x16 so I adjusted it by 8 units in each direction on line 28. I think it's purposely off-center in the template to be more aligned with the yellow projectile, but I'm really not sure I could wrong.
2. MyProjectCharacter.h - line 143
3. MyProjectCharacter.cpp- line 14, lines 144-169, and lines 302-321
