Two things: The rotation code should be in the actual BP rather than where you are spawning it … OO code and all that … Rotating the character requires you to get the current character and add a rotator value to that, times the delta , which you can get from the event tick. I dont have the editor installed on my work machine so cant provide screenshots. You also might want to consider a speed float so you can vary it, which would be times the delta . A basic version can be seen here: [![](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/5/8/9/589a08ea235d8c587ac9ec449da92b7ad2d192c4.jpeg "How to create a spinning mesh in Unreal Engine 4 - UE4") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iA2_RLpbZrI) You can also add a rotating component to the actor if you want the simple approach: > **[A new, community-hosted Unreal Engine Wiki](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/a-new-community-hosted-unreal-engine-wiki/141494)** > > After over a year in maintenance mode, the official Unreal Engine Wiki is now permanently offline.
