Hello,

I have a blueprint where the rotation point in on its tail. So when i turn it turns around it. I use ZQSD and not the mouse for turning so i activate “Orient Rotation to Movement” and deactivate “Use controller Desired Rotation”.

I have another problem. When i do backward walk my BP is shaking.

Have you tried to increase the rotation rate in Z to a higher number, 300 perhaps? It’s on CharacterMovement (Rotation Settings)

It obviously correct the rotation point but not exatly. It moves the rotation point but it increases the rotation because the circle radius is the same.

Thanks for the answer btw
