Questions
This plugin enables a room-scale VR character to have smooth collisions.
The player can also crawl under tight spaces without his view clipping through the roof or floor.
To use the plugin, simply add it to your existing Character. Also make sure to use the component hierarchy as shown in the screenshot.
In the Begin Play function, call the "Setup VR Components" function from the "Simple VR Collision" component.
The minimum inputs which are required, are the Collision Capsule Component, VROrigin (Scene Component), and the Camera Component.
If you want to make the Character fit into more narrow spaces you can simply adjust the Capsule Component Radius.
IMPORTANT: This component is currently intended to work with Characters. You may find a workaround for Pawns but this cannot yet be guaranteed.
Bonus: Demo Character Blueprint with smooth locomotion logic.
