Hi guys, as the title states my question is pretty straight forward. I’m trying to do this using the third person template while I work out the mechanics and I have the game set up in almost a top down view. But anyway I’m looking for a way to use two virtual joysticks, the left allows the player to move and the right joystick allows the player to rotate. It’s currently set up as default where left allows to move and rotate and the right is camera movement. Is this possible to do at all.

Thanks guys,  
Matt 🙂

i think you need to set in your inputs as gamepad left stick Y and right stick X or a tweak of that
