Main Menu - Game Start Before Clicking Play

I have two issue that I been trying to fix for the past day. I have tried watching tutorials reading posts and still it doesn’t fix it. I created a main menu and it works fine. When I click on start game the character was already moving then the menu loaded.

How can I make the character and everything else start when I click play and give it a countdown to let the players now it will start in “X” seconds.

My second issue is that when I load the main menu, everything works fine and when I click on options (if I don’t move the mouse) it goes back to the main menu. How can I fix that?

I fixed the issue with the player moving before clicking play in the main menu. The only thing I can’t fix is that when I’m in the main menu and click on options after a couple of seconds it goes back to main menu if I don’t move the cursor.

I am going to have see a little more information before I can try to help you fix this. Maybe explain how the main menu works with some screenshots of your blueprints?

It’s all done! I had to add disable input and also paused in order for the game not to start before clicking the start button.
