Character Movement Not Consistent Along Spline (Blueprint)

[pezzott1]

@Shadowfang_TC

The issue I am having is that the player seems to slow down quite a bit when nearing a spline point, more notably when there’s a larger distance between said points. I’d like the movement to stay consistent, so that there’s not this sudden jitter that happens that causes the player to visually move further forward or backwards in space from the camera.

Would like to see a video showing your issue.

As for your actor: How is your hierarchy organized? I see you are moving the actor and camera along the spline?

Judging from your reference, I would approach it like this: Move actor along spline, move ship component with input within a magnitud in local translation on the ZY plane. For example:

Camera as component of the actor moves with it (not along the spline), but not a child of the ship with a “soft” look at. This way you’ll only need one tick event and 1 actor along the spline (each level can be 1 spline entirely from start to finish). Everything handled within one blueprint.
