What is 'Location'? I assume an actor

[peak creek]

correct. it's just a dummy actor to give me a transform

[slow bronze]

Can you show it's transform of one of them placed in the level?

[peak creek]

sorry what do you mean?

[slow bronze]

select one of the dummy actors you use and show it's transform in the details panel.

I don't believe there's any issues with that. Does the BP_Plot do anything on construction on begin play?

[peak creek]

yeah it runs some logic to insert itself into a big wrapper data structure called "City" that manages interations between buildings

i've verified that that is happening correctly

[fallow coral]

this is BP_Plot ?

[peak creek]

no this is the dummy actor that corresponds to "Location" in the original screenshot

[fallow coral]

what about bp_plot, what does the rendering section look like for that ?

make sure hidden in game isn't checked

since the fix sets it on the bp_plot

Considering the issues happen when spawning, without knowing more about what it's doing it'll be difficult to advise further.

I'm very skeptical when someone says it's working. It's very easy to overlook little things and assume it's working.

[peak creek]

totally understood. i feel pretty comfortable debugging my bespoke game logic, i was just trying to get a feeler for weird UE5 nonsense i might be unaware when spawning via BP vs level

[peak creek]

it's not hidden in game
