This component performs all FPS procedural related calculations. PoseOffset, Idle, Locomotion, Recoil, Jump, AimSpineWieghts, Lean, Sway, Lag It provides functions for PoseOffset, Idle, Locomotion, Recoil, Jump, AimSpineWeights, Lean, Sway, and Lag.

This component can be used by attaching it to a character.

This component provides a number of custom functions that can be used by FPS characters.

## DataAsset\_AllAnimData This data asset manages all procedural animation data.

You can edit the data values in this file.

### *Pose Editor*

You can create and modify BASE(IDLE), SPRINT, CROUCH, UNEQUIP, and ADS poses. To create an ADS pose, you must add a SIGHT SOCKET to the weapon.

### ADS

ADS poses can be created using the pose eidtor.

### Recoil

You can set the value randomly with a minimum and maximum value.

### Idle

### Locomotion

This too can be animated with a curve base, and additionally adds force to the step timing.

### **Jump, Land, Fall**

You can create animations by adding force when jumping, landing, and in the air.

### **Sway And Lag**

Sway is the animation effect when the camera is rotated and Lag is the animation effect when the character is moving.

### **Aiming**

### **Lean**

You can rotate the character spine left and right.

### Pose Offsets Base, Sprint, Crouch, Block, Unequip, ADS

You can set an offset value for each pose.

## **Animation Blueprint** We can use the FPS Procedural Animation blueprint Layer by linking it to our Character Animation Blueprint.

Procedural Animation Blueprint Layer and Animation Blueprint Interface

## **Character** BP\_ FPA\_BaseCharacter has basic functionality. BP\_ FPA\_Character\_FullBody inherits from BP\_FPA\_BaseCharacter and has additional FullBody-specific functionality.

--- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://gamedevts-organization.gitbook.io/fps-procedural-animation/introduction.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
