RE: Pawn Capsule & Forced Camera Movements

[Yun-Kun]

Also, I’m trying to find a viable way to have the camera follow the player’s head.

Attach it to a socket attached to the skeletal mesh’s head bones.

The second question may be a bit more for animation, but I decided to ask it here rather than opening multiple threads. I need the player–when attacked from behind, the side, etc.–to face the attacker. A “forced” view, I suppose. I’m assuming I would handle this in the AI Attacker’s “Kill Player” function via casting, but I’d like to hear some other opinions on this.

When killed or when attacked?
If you just want to rotate the player to face a particular direction you have a “FindLookAtRotation” node. You plug in the Player and the Target he’s supposed to face and then you set its rotation to that value (or your lerp it).
