How to Set Player Rotation?

I’m using the Set Actor Location And Rotation node. The location gets set but not the rotation. I tried it with Get Player Character, Get Player Pawn and Get Player Controller. Nothing of it does something simple as this. I also tried the Teleport node and it exactly the same issue.

I only want to teleport the player, help?

Hi, show us your BP or piece of code.
I don’t have any problems with SetActorLocationAndRotation.

Turns out I have to use the Set Control Rotation node on the Player Controller to be able to set the rotation. I assume you just didn’t do it with the Player.
It is really strange when considering that “teleport” might originated from teleporting players.

See above: Set Control Rotation node on the Player Controller to be able to set the rotation.

Thank you. That was driving me nuts trying to figure out why setting the pawn rotation wasn’t working :stuck_out_tongue:

Hi i was trying to teleport the player. But when i do i can’t get them to face the direction of the forward of the teleporter. Is it that I need to disable the Set Control Rotation node then set rotation then enable the node again. Thanks
