Title: Player constantly running in one direction
Post by: hyperbeamart on October 27, 2021, 02:04:21 PM

Hello, I am having an issue where even when no keys are being pressed my player is constantly running in random directions, however this issue is only happening for other people playing my game on different computers. I personally have never experienced the issue which makes it very difficult to debug.

Basically my player movement is controlled in one state using "Controller Simple Move" and assigning axis input value to a vector 3 variable, then setting that as the move vector for my simple move action.

would love to hear any input you might have that could solve this issue. Thanks!!

Hi.
Probably the controller 'Dead Zone' is the issue.
You can adjust them in the input settings.

Thanks for reply dj!
 Turned out my tester had a controller plugged in they were unaware of causing a secondary input. A good reminder to check your debugs from the simplest issues first and work up!
