Hi! I’m currently trying to make a Unity game involving a tank, and when you move left for example, I want the whole chassis to turn to face the new direction (like a real tank). However, I have not been able to do this, though I have tried. I am looking for any help.
Thanks!
SEND MOAR TANKS!!!
Seriously… what you need is to turn the X/Y moves into an angle heading.
Sine/Cosine/Atan2 (sin/cos/atan2) and rotational familiarity and conventions

Using Mathf.Atan2() to derive heading:

Or if you prefer, have a working twinstick tank!!
Supports backing up too, just set the boolean in the controller.
Full project all set up in the above repository.
