Hi, I have a rig as shown in the small video, what I want is the selected bone (at the moment a separate armature) to rotate forwards (in a staggered manner) every time the swaying bones move forward, Like copy rotation but without taking in account the backwards movement.
I have been looking into drivers but can not figure out how to do it.
Any ideas? Thanks.

What you want can’t be done with constraints and drivers alone. You would have to use something like physics or Animation Nodes.
In the end I have managed it a different way. The swaying bones were driven by a rotating rig, I used a driver to copy the rotation, then in the drivers editor I slowed it down, added a staggered modifier (just what I wanted) and inverted the rotation via “-var + 0.0” It works just as I wanted.
Sometimes posting a question makes me think a bit more!
Thanks for your answer.
