Unreal engine is exactly like that, yes. All the collision stuff and 
animation sequencing and things are done in system languages, while the code 
for what to do (like, "Spawn here, then use the RUN animation until you get 
within X distance of the player") are in Unreal Script.

It's pretty cool. All the documentation is online.
