Blueprint

So I have a game, in which, the player is a Pawn, and I want to be able to spawn that pawn blueprint on the game start. I created a Game Mode Blueprint, set the default pawn class and set that Blueprint to be the default game mode. But when I start the game, I am set at the center of the level an I can’t move or do anything. Except if I simulate the game and then use possess button, the player is spawned and it works normaly. In every tutorial I’ve seen, that simple Game Mode setup spawned the player right at the start and I don’t know what to do. Could it be, that I’m using a pawn without a player controller?

I am sorry if I’m posting a realy basic question. I am very new to UE4 and I can’t find a lot of useful tutorials or documentation on the internet. There aren’t that many tutorials about Game Mode Blueprints and they are mostly the same.

Thank you.
