Automatic Walk for Main-Character from outside the viewport to the inside of it

Hello,

I'm developing a small Plattform-Type/Jump'n Run game for a school project.

I have a title screen with a "Play" button to start the game.

After the button is clicked, I like the user to see the scenery first and after a few seconds the Main-Character should walk automatically, from the outside of the viewport into the inside of it.

I tried it with pathfinding but it only works when the player starts already inside the viewport, right?

What else can I try?

The Main-Char will also use a sprite-sheet.

Use 'Simulate Control' on the platform behaviour to make it walk automatically to the right, you could do this for a few seconds on a timer then stop and give control to the player.

Hey lionz,

thx for the quick answer and it works fine now.

I added a screenshot of the Eventsheet, with the "Simulate Control" solution.

If you think there is a better/more elegant way to implement it, let me know.
