Side scroll character not activating trigger

I’m trying to make a small side scrolling game, at on part a moving platform matinee is supposed to be activated when the character actor overlaps with a trigger volume but nothing is happening, my blue script looks correct and I can’t identify the problem. Can anyone help?

-Thanks

What type of object are you using for your platform and what does your Matinee look like?

Also, are you looking at the following tutorial: Blueprint Lift Tutorial.

Using a moveable mesh as my platform object. The matinee looks fine and lays perfectly on it’s own if i just hit play in the matinee editor.

Thank you for posting the image. Everything looks good. Check to make sure that on your Character Blueprint has Generate Overlap Events checked on the Defaults tab (upon further inspection, I noticed that the Side Scrolling Template has this off by default, which would explain why you are seeing it work correctly during simulation and not during play).

Let us know if that solves the issue, everything else looks good!
