New 5.6 Third Person Template is really bad, please fix it

The previous version was way better. The new one is blatantly incorrect/poor.

From BP_ThirdPersonCharacter:

Replace Event Possessed. This is a server-only function and you’re doing UI. Change it to Event Receive Controller Changed. The old one probably got it wrong too, but why update if you won’t improve/fix it?

You’re also missing IsValid check on NewController.

And because you’re doing UI get rid of the IsPlayerController check and replace it with IsLocalPlayerController.

This is plain wrong/incorrect and you’re teaching people this stuff.

That’s the easy stuff. Now onto the animation. Look at how the run looks in the new version vs old version. The animation looks BAD. Maybe the movement speed simply doesn’t look right at this point in the blendspace or setup, whatever it is, investigate it and fix it so Quinn runs properly.

And now look at what happens every time braking is applied (i.e. you were moving and now you released the input). It snaps. No blending. Total jank.

And finally, when I PIE, there is WAY too much green on my screen. Tone it down.
