Your character didn't have any items attached. But is the animation playing? Or is it not playing at all?
If the reload animation is playing but the weapon doesn't reload it's likely an animation event problem. You'll want to ensure the animation events are firing for reload: https://opsive.com/support/document...controller/animation/animation-event-trigger/.
If the reload animation isn't playing then it doesn't sound like the reload ability is starting. Does the Reload have an (active) next to it when you press R?
