When you open top down and play you can run and jump etc, but when you go to create a new level you cant do any of this and in the blue print bit when you can run/jump there isn’t anything there so i cant copy the animations over or anything so i was wondering how do i make it so i can move?
Thanks in advance 
All this stuff is defined in [Blueprints] -> [Projects Settings] -> [GameMode] or [World override] -> [GameMode] if you want specific behavior for level, rather than whole project.
Just setup this for your map(or project) the same way default map is set
But if i go to new level this dissapears? how do i copy it over to a new level? and how do i set it so these animations work in the whole game? for example if it was open world? thanks again
If you define this in Project settings then this will be automatically applied in any new map
EDIT: Also, I’ll move this thread into Blueprint section, I think it is more appropriate 
how do i define it? sorry 
im really new to UE
I highlighted this stuff in a screenshot above, just go to to this tab and choose TopDownGamemode - everything else should be defined automatically
I’ve done this but am still unable to move in the new level?
