The joy this has brought me is priceless, thank you for taking the time to create the tutorial. I've officially hit a milestone in my project - hats off to you and other UE creators!

Great video, quick little additional tip:
The looping behaviour can be made a little more smooth if you change the distance input into "Get Transform at Distance Along Spline", into a "Get Distance Along Spline" %(Modulo) "Get Spline Length". That will always set the distance to be the remainder of the loop and not jump the character back to the start (0 point) of the spline when the loop is completed with an amount that does not equate to the exact length of the full loop.

If you want very realistic movement, enable root motion on your animations and add the 'Foot Placement' Node to your locomotion system. Very fine movement where the AI even keeps its feet locked in place once it touches the ground

Great job! Please tell me how to set up a trigger box so that the event starts after it is completed and not at the start of the game. If you could do a tutorial like this, I would be very grateful.

It is a very useful video for programming NPCs to move.

Is that possible to create a line to follow, then be able to move on right / left following this direction ?

Hello thanks a lot for your efforts. I have a question; Can I perform this operation with VR PAWN by disabling the teleportation?

[troy]

Thank you so much for making these videos. Outstanding

[MrDJsArcade]

Your videos are golden! Thanks so much.

Now how would you get this to generate a spline on the fly? Like a school of fish swimming around on random curves?

[natxmctavish]

Awesome, but how to make this movement without simulation, for render cinematic in level sequencer ? Thanks

[braveshooter]

Video is very good by the way what is the use if this for making game it helps in animation

Gorka buenísimo tutorial como siempre claramente 🙌🙌🙌, lo que no he logrado aún, es que el carácter se pare cada "x" tiempo, y luego continúe por el spline, y luego se pare, y luego continúe, y así...

Thanks for solution! As we know -in common 3d-editor - like maya or 3ds max - we can smooth spline or rebuild it that means that instead 5 point inside we will get 10 ones - can we do it in Unreal engine? What operations can i do with spline in UE?

[VinoVenitas]

And again you helped me out. Simple clean and effective. Thank you.

[DevilsRockContract]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! Everything is perfect it helped me so much in my music video :) I'm happy

[caricreate]

thank you so much, this was really helpful!

I like this can you elaborate on if you have the char on the spline and he spots the player can he chase off the spline and if he loses sight can he go back to the spline?

[FPChris]

Does it follow the terrain with this method?

[sof]

How to do that with the player characters? Press forward --> Going forward along the spline, and same for backward?
