I would like to see if a character is moving forward relative to it’s location in the world, and if it is then increase a variable. Basically, if the ‘w’ key is pressed then increase the variable. The problem is, that I’m doing this in the event graph in my character’s animation blueprint. Any way…

Sounds like you want to compare the result of GetActorForwardVector and CharacterMovement->GetVelocity. If the dot product of the velocity and the actor forward vector are greater than some threshold, you are moving forward. For background, the dot product of two unit (normalized) vectors is equal …
