I’m using a slightly modified version of the rolling ball tutorial, where I have a sphere that inherits from the pawn and I’m adding force to it (instead of torque) to move it around. I have a 3d model for a hat that I want to add onto the sphere, but I want it to always stay on the ‘top’ (relative to the world not the sphere) and always pointing upwards.
I’ve tried a couple of things but they didn’t seem to work, wonder what’s the best way to do it?
Things I tried:
-
storing the initial offset and rotation of the hat and then updating each delta step. but the hat seems to lag behind when the ball is moving fast
-
instead of having the ball as the root component, add the ball and hat to a geometry collection. But it seems like I cant add force properly this way, and I want the movement of the player to come from the ball rolling.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated
