Your first game in unreal engine 5

Hi everyone,

I hope this forum area is still alive.

I started with Unreal about 7 months ago and recently found “Your First Game In Unreal Engine 5” tutorial. I believe I have the same setup as in the tutorial, but I had to adapt to the new system of enhanced input actions.

At the beginning of the video, everything works as expected, but when I implement “Orient rotation to movement” in character movement and set the spring arm rotation to “absolute rotation,” I noticed some issues:

  • The camera faces the opposite direction, and I would need to adjust it in the BP_Bot spring arm, but I’m not sure why.

  • When I try to move sideways, my bot doesn’t rotate completely; it seems stuck.

Can anyone help me out, please?

Thank you.
