This is a bump/repost. I am able to achieve camera based motion in the Z direction, but when I extend the logic to the X axis in this patch, no data is registered...I must still be doing something wrong.

This is a bump/repost. I am able to achieve camera based motion in the Z direction, but when I extend the logic to the X axis in this patch,

i'm going to need some comments with steps to reproduce, and desired behavior in order to be much help.

So I was able to understand the logic from your first post when I asked this topic: https://cycling74.com/forums/rotating-a-force-vector

I took that patch and tried to add onto it (see attached) so I could move the phys.body in the Z direction (forward/backward) with a slider...

I was not able to get it to work and I must be doing something wrong.

for Z you can just use the camera's current direction vector (rather than using the Unit X vector transformed by the camera). you then have to combine the two force vectors before sending as args to the force attribute. simple additive vexpr will suffice for this.
