You know how in flying games the camera doesn’t really let you do a full 180 or 360? Essentially, the camera gets clamped to a certain area for yaw and pitch and depending on how far you yaw/pitch, the player follows that movement continuously, so when you reach the max yaw or pitch the character continues to turn.

[This is an example of what I’m going for.](https://youtu.be/WbGgAz5HYvc?t=588)

Any advice on how to recreate this? When I clamp the yaw and pitch, the character stops yaw/pitching once I reach that max or min value, I’m playing around with trying to identify when a player have pitched or yawed to the max distance they can and then rotate the controller, but no luck so far.

Hi @SaultheMercenary,

You’ll probably want to do something similar to what I’ve described [here](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/clamping-camera-pitch-rotation-of-a-floating-pawn/2594380/2).

Let me know if you have any questions on top of what was detailed in that thread.

Thanks,  
Hayden
