You are setting the camera location relative to your Player. This will cause unintended results unless you also reset the view target to your Player.

Here I have the FindLookAtRotation returning (0,0,0) which is the relative location of my pawn. Pass this to your camera rotation after you have moved it to the new location.

If you move the Camera relative to his parent, it will still be looking in the same direction. The X,Y values in your pictures change, so it looks like it is moving.

This is something I used before I switched to a different system. It seems you are just missing the SetRelativeRotation aspect.
