Unreal Editor for version 4.8 of the engine crashes when using the new C++ Class wizard or when trying to compile after changes have been made to source code files from Visual Studio 2013 Community.
Crashing seems to always happen when using the C++ Class Wizard but only crashes when hitting the compile button after changes have been made to source files.
EDIT: Upon testing, this seems to only happen with a specific project as my other projects don’t experience this crash.

Hi,
Unfortunately I decided it is best to start my project anew rather than try to fix all the bugs. I first started this project with 4.6 so I thought it was a good time to remake it. I tried looking for solutions but it was really long and tedious, having to step through engine code.
In the beginning the error was coming from spawning my bots. Then as I described in my original post, when I tried editing my Game Mode BP. After a while the crashes resolved themselves despite me not doing anything. The last issue I was able to find was caused by the function Load Game (sorry for not having the exact name) from UGameplayStatics. The serialize at the end was causing a crash as well. This is easily fixed by deleting your save game file and letting the engine create a new one. I guess working with 4.7 save file causes problems.
