I finally got spawning paintings and npc blueprint from a separate BP actor as a blueprint. It took quite some time to figure out what is the issue. I was at first trying to learn about different ways that i can spawn a bp randomly. So the “select” node it is!

I was following along this tutorial, but even after setting up all the nodes exactly like him. when I hit play, no characters is seen. So I decided to switch gear and see if I can just spawn the paintings randomly, it was a success with the spawn all actor from class. So then i went back to the drawing board to figure out what’s wrong.

Eventually i tested out pulling the BP AI spawner up and then the characters successfully came in. It was because the character get spawn at z:0 that they just drop out of the map.

Next pass is to create a set of general crowd NPC characters.
