Backpedaling

1. I would love to have an option to keybind S to backpedal instead of turning back and facing the camera - for tanks it's a crucial mechanic when you have to slightly reposition a boss or a pack of mobs but you don't wanna get hit from behind. Well in most mmos attacks from behind cannot be dodged, parried or blocked and in some games they also daze you, so if you are planning to implement those combat mechanics then backpedal is a must. 2. When I played a mage I could cast a spell at the enemy even with my back turned against it. 3. When you move your camera low to the ground it clips through the ground for a second or constantly if you hold LMB and move it forward and backward

I am pleased to say I've updated the character movement in the latest update and it now supports backpedalling. I'll continue to make improvements and adjustments to this in the future.

Came here to say this. When trying to backup, especially in a fight, it is very awkward the way your character starts turning around. Looking forward to this being implemented! :)
