I’m trying to spawn a pawn using my player character but it’s not working, I’ve been following these tutorials: > **[A new, community-hosted Unreal Engine Wiki](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/a-new-community-hosted-unreal-engine-wiki/141494)** > > After over a year in maintenance mode, the official Unreal Engine Wiki is now permanently offline. These resources now live on a new community-run Unreal Engine Community Wiki — ue4community.wiki! You will be able to find content from the official... and am now on tutorial 3 but the sentry turret doesn’t spawn when the fire button is pressed, here are the blueprints: ![80604-screenshot036.jpg](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/c/d/d/cdd1e0bb56980aa9cf289d5102aab3e967ec9d1b.jpeg) there’s nothing wrong with the input itself and the branch is set to true so I think the problem might be with the spawn function itself, or that the tutorials are out of date. Any screenshots of a potential fix would be most welcome thanks! ---

Also might want to look at the World Outliner window and see if it spawned in another position. Maybe it’s falling down the world or something. Can you set a breakpoint on the node to verify that the node is being executed? ---

sorry I’m still new to UE, how do I set a breakpoint? I’m pretty sure it’s appearing in the right place because I have a line trace going to its location. ---

right click SpawnAIFromClass node and select “add breakpoin” from the dropdown. Then play the game. The game should stop right before executing that node. ---

ok sorry its late (lost my internet) I added a breakpoint to the node and it is being executed but nothing happens I stepped out into the editor and couldn’t find any references to the turret in the hierarchy. the turret actual is a pawn so that should work. do I need to attach the turrets behaviour tree? the location and rotation should be fine. what does the no collision fail bool do?
