    Sure, when you spawn the random actor spawn another actor at the same time.that has a display text behavior on it that also plays a sound.

    Make a new actor called Text (or whatever).

    Set the actors Alpha to 0 and add a Display Text Behavior to it and add a Play Sound Behavior to it.

    Then you would spawn this actor at the same time you spawn your random actor and it will display the text and play the sound.

    Are you not able to add the Display Text and Play Sound Behaviors directly to your random actor you are spawning for some reason?

    it is not a random actor, it is a random time!

    I posted this in another thread for someone else, but i think it bears repeating:

    I think you are getting ahead of yourself, this is a pretty basic concept, and if you don't build a solid foundation you are going to find yourself in deep water. Please take some time and go through the entire cookbook and watch every youtube video you can find. You will be so much better prepared for what you want to do.

    My only problem is that i didnt find any tutorials that describes how to make a actor that spawns when another actor spawns randomly :( so if someone can please try to describe it to me, so i can learn how to do it? I think i have tried to find out how to do this for about 1 1/2 hours now! So please help me.

    if you are already spawning the first actor randomly, add a second spawn behavior that spawns the other actor as well.
