Simple Character movement by touch?

[Est_engine]

@Jasseri

Hi

Can any one help me with creating a simple touch movement (or atleast it sounds simple =D) I want that the character moves in X & Y Axis like in ThirdPerson examble but I want it to move by Drag when touching the character. (Hold touch on character and move character in Y & X) Just can’t figure it out and cant really find any tutorials about it so I hope you can help me in here, Thanks!

Here is more about the game so I hope you can understand me a bit more =)
So basically the game is going to be like this:
World's Hardest Game - Play it now at Coolmath Games

And I want that the box moves by holding the box with touch and moving it across the screen and on release it stays where I dragged the box.

Hi man,
You can take a look at the touch event and get hit under finger https://forums.unrealengine.com/development-discussion/blueprint-visual-scripting/97042-inconsistent-get-hit-result-under-finger-by-channel-returns

Basically you check if the touch hit a specific actor , and when that happenz, you save the touch position , Get Input Touch State | Unreal Engine 5.2 Documentation
at every tick you can check if the new location of the touch is greater X or lesser X , greater Y or lesser Y, to know if you are dragging in a specific direction
