    Does anyone know how i can get my character to start turning from the forward of the camera?
    e.g. you rotate the character on it's own a couple degrees (40 or something) but the camera is still facing a different way. When you start rotating the player again the forward of the player should become the forward that the camera is facing. It should not continuously follow the camera forward but only when you rotate the first time.
    I included the screenshots from my script. The character turns and stops to face the direction it last turned in but when i press forward again the player faces the world position forward.
    I just can't seem to figure out how to make it face the camera forward and then continue on its own. (e.g. the game Journey has the movement im hoping to achieve)
    Please help, been stuck on this for days :(

    This isn't a physics system question and is best asked on the Visual Scripting forum.

    I'll move your post for you.

    Sorry! I asked a movement related question here before so I thought this was the right spot, thanks for moving it!
    Hopefully someone knows the answer here
