Bugs crawling on a path - Alida - 04-22-2021

Hi tyflowers,

can somebody help me out on how to properly make some insects walk on a path (the path is conformed and constraint to an arm of a character)
The problem im having is the orientation of the bugs, they do not correctly follow the path, they do not correctly rotate around the arm,

any help means allot

thank you

You need a Rotation operator set to velocity, using the surface as the secondary vector.

thank you for your time.

No, you set the forward vector to velocity as well. It needs to be set to surface.
