Rotating Actor mesh?

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint

I’m trying to implement a kind of “Shove” action in my project, currently handled by Rotating the enemy actor’s mesh to face mine, then using their AI controller to move a certain distance away from the player. This is to give the appearance of the enemy moving backwards. At the end of the move, I plan on rotating the actor to match the mesh’s rotation. However, the enemy actor mesh simply will not face the player no matter what I do.

Any and all help is welcome.

I realized what the Problem was, Rotating the actor ALSO rotates the mesh, in the end I fixed the issue by rotating the mesh a second time:

  1. Rotate enemy to face player
  2. move enemy to location
  3. Rotate actor to face player
  4. Correct the mesh’s rotation from step3 by rotating to player again
