Fighting Game - How to make fighters walk backward when facing other player?

Hi @usa423!

That might be possible but I am unsure if that will solve your issue that there is no negative speed?

A couple more questions:

  • How does your overall anim graph look?
  • Have you tried having a different state for walking backwards instead?
  • How are you determining the direction the player is facing? Is that something that can be used as a conditional?
  • Have you tried calculating the dot product of the actor to check if the character is moving forward or backwards,? You can use that as your conditional for switching between the forward and backward states. Here is a thread with more information on that:

Any additional information you can provide will be a big help in solving your problem!
