I have the default third person character and a heightmap generated terrain in my game. 90% of the time, the player will not move properly during gameplay. He gets stuck in place until I jump to kick off his momentum, and when he is moving, he drifts considerably and continues moving even when I let go of the keyboard. This is demonstrated in the video below, as well as the properties of the character and the landscape.

Randomly, when I do hit play, about 10% of the time. The player will move completely naturally, but the problem will reappear 10 minutes later. This problem also occurs when I put the player on a flat cube. The only change I made to the player was a couple UI related blueprints and increasing the speed.

Anyone else experiencing this issue?
