    Hi there! Great tutorial. Ive actually followed something similar to this before but instead for an Player character, I did it for a NPC. However, the trouble im running into is the last part for telling the AI to use the blend space correctly. right now it looks like its only using the forward animation even though I made 8 way direction animations for it, same as for your character here. And i cant seem to find information online to help with this issue.

    Hi, you can do this by adding an input action with the key “Mouse X/Y” where you have both the X and Y axis. Then change the input action type to Axis 2D. Then in the player, use the functions “Add Controller Yaw” for the X and “Add Controller Pitch” for the Y. I’ll create a tutorial on it very soon.

    ​@@LOL1423derp92 This video is for third person. You can move the camera as well but I didn't move it in the video. For moving the camera: 1. Make a new Action Input, and go in there and change the Variable type to Axis 2D 2. Go to the Player blueprint and add the Action Input as an event, just like what we did with the movement in the video. 3. Use the function called Add Controller Yaw and plug in the X value from the event into the Scale value. Works :)

    In the character blueprint, click on the character movement component. In there you need to find a checkbox saying “orient rotation to movement”. I believe it’s at the bottom at the rotation settings. You can watch my other video for more help: kzread.info/dash/bejne/da2ElpWjnKyohcY.html
