Defining the behavior of a Blueprint with events and actions
Most of the time, we will use Blueprints to create new Actors. In Unreal Engine, Actors are game objects that can be added to a level.
Unreal Engine informs the state of a game for an Actor using events. We define how an Actor responds to an event by using actions. Both events and actions are represented by nodes in the Event Graph panel.
Events
To add events to a Blueprint, use the Event Graph panel. Right-click the Event Graph panel to open Context Menu, which has a list of available events and actions. If you need more space in the Event Graph panel, you can right-click and drag to move it to an empty area of Event Graph. Context Menu has a Search bar that can be used to filter the list of nodes. There is also the Context Sensitive checkbox that filters the possible actions based on the node selected. The following screenshot shows Context Menu and some of the events available:
