I’ve built a simple character movement interface which might help. The blueprint goes in the player controller.

It uses Input Touch. Touch 1 controls the rotate and up down. Touch 2 (if you put a second finger on the screen after the first ) controls movement of the character forward and sideways.

For the camera you just need the middle section ( touch look input )

Hope its of use:

You are absolute legend. Worked like a charm. Also works for pixel streaming!! Now I am able to use it for all type of inputs.
