      How would I move an object forwards or backwards of the direction its facing. Example: A cube is facing the right so want to move to the right. This mostly only affects top down games.

        The built in Joystick controlled behaviour should handle this automatically. Make sure the "should flip" toggle is on.

            @IAmPotat The Raycast Test behavior outputs a normal field. This is the angle that the ray would travel if it were to reflect. You can use this to rotate an object to that angle, and then use a Calculate Direction behavior to calculate the x_vector and y_vector from the center of the object to where it's facing. You can use those values to determine how much your object moves when a ray has intersected with an object.

            If you need help on how to use the behavior, this video has step-by-step examples:
