snap to surface - end key

"block all" probably best for any walls or immovable objects. Not entirely sure why the stairs or template floor has no collision setting. Might be in blueprints? Decided to take a few screenshots of the pawn's Blueprint, just in case those videos vanish. The rotation snapping is as follows - And the free movement is here- Also changing the class inheritance to Character -  And disconnecting the teleport related scripts, but keepi...
