Rotate player and then move forward

Hi

I am making a game with a camera in orbit mode, I want the player to rotate when I press a key and then move forward. for example, if I press 'S', the player should rotate and face the camera and then should move forward.

I don't know how to do this, can anyone help me?.

Thanks in advance

I've found a good resource that can work

Look at:

It's actually part 2 in a resource set I wrote, but it handles 8-directional movement of the player which I THINK is what you're looking for (part 1 was just before it on the resources page for the camera setup etc. I'm using)
