@zorton

FVector TargetLocation = GetComponentLocation() = GetForwardVector() * HoldDistance;

This is a bug, you have a = where there should be a +. You want to add the component location to the result of Forward * Distance. What you have written is the same as removing GetComponentLocation() =

It should be

FVector TargetLocation = GetComponentLocation() + GetForwardVector() * HoldDistance;
//                                              ^

You are a literal hero! That’s exactly what is was. 2 times now you have helped me when i all but gave up hope, thank you sir.
