The main controller is an actor component that when added to an actor, can allow it to be moved along a track or series of tracks. It contains a variety of options to allow for the creation and control of your desired actor type. The actor can be controlled via player inputs, or through the use of blueprint events from the owning actor or any other, with some example automover actors included. If you are looking for a simple option to allow for a player controlled or automated train, mining cart, tram, or other type of train like actor, then this controller may be of use to you.
