Hey @twistedemavfox!

Seems like you’re already doing it!

If you’re encountering any unexpected issues, you can share a video about it for us to take a look.

Just an additional note tho, you don’t need those Do Once nodes there, as both those events (Begin Play and the custom event) already execute the following nodes once when they’re called.

Hope this helps :innocent:

Set actor tick enabled is a variable manageable from the details panel (on the right). So you can just uncheck that and your character’s tick will be disabled on game start by default. Then activate/de-active it when you need it.
