This was the first time we got to see our code impact on the game world, which was exciting.

I think this video needs an update for users of more recent versions. Other people have mentioned this issue in the discussions, but I didn’t notice a “Hey, Sam here…”

I’m using 4.18, My door didn’t open and instead I saw this warning in the Output Log:

PIE: Warning: Mobility of /Game/UEDPIE_0_NewMap.NewMap:PersistentLevel.SM_Door_39 : StaticMeshComponent0 has to be 'Movable' if you'd like to move. 

I selected the door and looked at the Transform properties. Under Mobility, I had Static selected, which is the unchanged default in the lecture video. I changed it to Movable, and my door opened.
