A Python middleman for the Smartphone Remote app, and Unreal Engine 5. This enables remote control of the camera in UE5 using a smartphone.

(Yaw, roll, pitch, and location can be transferred from an Android phone to UE5 via this script. This was recorded with a speed dividend of 4, so it was a bit choppy.)

Setup Instructions:

1.] git clone https://github.com/katznboyz1/smartphoneremote_ue5 %% cd smartphoneremote_ue5

CLI Args:

--bind / -b : The port where the program will listen for incoming connections from the smartphone app. [Not required, default is 8096].

--unreal-engine-camera-path / -c : The path for the camera in Unreal Engine. [Not required, however this will likely not work if you don't set it manually, as the default is specific to my debug environment].

--camera-z-rotation-offset / -z : The Z rotation [yaw] offset for the camera. This is additive. [Not required, default is 0].

--speed-dividend / -s : Only send a PUT request to the Unreal Engine API every N'th frame. [Not required, default is 2].

Running the Program

1.] Start Unreal Engine with the web control plugin enabled and configured.
