Playercontroller rotation and cursor location

[Dakkafex]

So i am trying to figure out in a third person setup, how to make the player keep following the location of the cursor on screen.

i have been trying allot, and i have gotten close but i am kinda beached on this issue.

any pointer in the right direction would be much apreciated

You can trace from the moust to static objects in the world and get the location of the hit and use the AI’s MoveToLocation command. Here is a brief example in the player controller of how to get the hit location.
