Default Character Capsule Component not firing collision events

I can’t seem to get the capsule component to fire collision events.

Here’s the relevant code

GetCapsuleComponent()->bGenerateOverlapEvents = true;
GetCapsuleComponent()->OnComponentBeginOverlap.AddDynamic(this, &AUnRexCharacter::TriggerEnter);

And the actual function (which never gets fired):

void AUnRexCharacter::TriggerEnter(UPrimitiveComponent* OverlappedComp, AActor* OtherActor, UPrimitiveComponent* OtherComp, int32 OtherBodyIndex, bool bFromSweep, const FHitResult& SweepResult)
{
	GEngine->AddOnScreenDebugMessage(-1, 5.f, FColor::Red, TEXT("Overlap With Character"));
	if (OtherActor->IsA(AObstacleActor::StaticClass()))
		SetActorLocation(StartingLocation);
}

I’ve checked all the editor settings, and my character’s capsule component collision profile is set to “Pawn”, and the other actor collision profile is set to “OverlapOnlyPawn”.

Try setting the AUnRexCharacter’s capsule component collision profile as follows:

GetCapsuleComponent()->SetCollisionProfileName(TEXT(“OverlapAll”));
