Please help, how to trigger actor with another actor?

Hello! I want to know how to make a seperate actor with collision box as a trigger to another actor? The scenario is I want my Mannequin (The jumpscare guy) to move after triggering the collision box from a very far away not when the game starts (Because the animation starts whenever the game starts) and I don’t know what to use because I just copied a tutorial from youtube and it starts with an event called (Event tick). Please help before I go insane.

These pictures is where I left everything out because they just won’t communicate.


The easiest way I can think of from what you have,
Open up your jumpscare guy BP, and uncheck Start with Tick Enabled in the details panel:

Then in your trigger actor’s overlap get the jumpscare guy and enable tick.

(cast to character is there because I assume you only want the character to trigger this, without it any other actor overlapping will start up the jumpscare guy).
