	else {

	GetSprite()->SetFlipbook(DesiredAnimation);

	InputComponent->BindAction("Jump", IE_Pressed, this, &ACharacter::Jump);

void AdicksCharacter::Squat()

void AdicksCharacter::StopSquat()

I pretty much followed a tutorial line for line, but the character won’t squat when I press the button mapped to “Squat” what am I doing wrong? I’m using 4.7.6

Your code looks alright to me, maybe the bug is somewhere else. How do you use bPressedSquat? AnimBlueprint?
