Making char block with shield won't stop.

I have an anim montage of my character blocking, but when I press the block button the montage will play then stop. How do I get the char to keep it’s arm extended until I release the block button? I don’t want them to extend their arm to block and retract their arm while the button is pressed. I want their arm to stay stuck out until the block button is released.

Set variable in your character “IsBlocking”, bool

Then in anim bp try get pawn (i dont remember that getter), cast it to your character. If true - in locomotion add state blocking anim, if false go back… there are many tuts for this, find some aiming animation tutorial, its the same…
