Test-NPC doesn't move and fails to follow player

Hello, absolute noob here :_:

I’m currently learning how to implement NPCs with AI-Movementin UE5, for that I tried to replicate some tutorials where the NPC should follow the player character. Only Problem is, my NPC won’t move.

Here’s the code I used:


I set up a Nav-Mesh, the NPC is autoposessed by AI when placed in the world, and I’m currently unaware of other settings that need to bei set to make it work.

Thank you fpr the help :‿:

That’s pretty much it tbh, like so, right?

Things to double check regarding what we cannot see atm:

  • is the navmesh actually there?

  • is the NPC actually placed in the scene or spawned dynamically?
  • can the NPC access the navmesh?
  • can the character access the navmesh?
  • are we possessing a playable Character class (as opposed to a simple Pawn)?
