So I'm still kinda novice with actors and I searched for this topic to no avail, so sorry if this has been covered. My issue is actors not working the first time they're triggered but then they're fine for the rest of the level. As an example, the firebat suffers the same problem in the campaign. His attack still damages and makes the sound the first time, but the flame launch model doesn't play until the second time onward.
I have a hunch it has something to do with too many messages triggered from the same event, or possibly validateplayer terms. I just haven't put the pieces together yet.

Obviously something involved with the creation of the model. Check the events for what is used to create the model.
