( You can do a GetControlRotation to get the current player rotation, again split it, keep the X and Y and only set the Z ). Sorry, not at a machine right now, this is …

I hope the above thread works for you!

Hey @tavukgogsu!

Have you taken a look at the Third person character template? It has a similar set up to what you already have. You will need to reference the camera, get the camera z rotation, and plug it into the z (yaw).

I hope the above is the solution you need.
