You can only react to things the game tells you about
#Dynamic movement.

Look at that, that'll tell you the things that happen that you could react to
E.g. there's PLAYER_STARTED_MOVING, same for stopped
But nothing like PLAYER_MOVING_FORWARD
You can go around that with some coordinate calculations, to see how you're moving I guess
But that's not available in combat

Alright, fair enough. I saw a reddit post a while ago where someone had like 3 icons showing core abilities kinda floating around his characters head dynamically with how he moved. Kind of the effect I was hoping for, He never specified it that was WA or a seperate addon. Thanks for replying 🙂

It's not about being a WA or not, if the information isn't available then it isn't available period
You can do it out of combat for sure, but the things you'd need to determine your position (and thus your movement and also camera movement) aren't available in combat anymore
If you still got the link, I'd be curious about the thing you mentioned though

Ye im scrolling hard through the Ui reddit trying to find it haha
a million posts later i found it
Maybe it's actually just him using DynamicCam giving the illusions that the icons are swaying

The icons are anchored to the personal resource display (player nameplate)

These are in a static position
exotic ibex
Yeah but you get what I mean tho, they are slightly offset based on his camera, or am I tripping completely

That's just the weird Dynamic Cam movement + what Stereo said
exotic ibex
Ye alright, well glad that's been settled, atleast now I know what I was looking for isn't possible, I've been in adhd hyperfocus on this for the past 3 hours. Thanks for helping me clarify it
tidal tree
You can for sure imitate that wobble though if you like, exactly that
You just can't move it around at will depending on your movement like your post initially said
exotic ibex
Ye, I just put some low bounce on it to make it not completely static
tidal tree
Or anchor it to your PRD like stereo mentioned
exotic ibex
I tried that and it turned invisible. I turned off parent to anchor aswell but still not visible
