Nope, it just means that we were out on vacation Monday =)
I took a look at bug, and it’s been closed as “Not a Bug”. I spoke with developer about it, and here’s what he said:
"You can’t bind component and variable like that. SMC (Static Mesh Component) variable is just a pointer to something else, and doesn’t actually get bound to any data that you can modify.
"Making an array of static mesh components can’t actually create components. What he’s seeing is an array of read only components. He’d have to populate those with components added in construction script in order to manipulate them.
"When you add a component via component tree, there’s an automatically created component variable for you to access, which is set to component that’s spawned in there. So, that variable has an actual component associated with it, so you can edit it.
“Just creating a new SMC variable doesn’t actually put anything in it. You can reference something else, but for purposes of Details panel, it’s just a read-only pointer. If you want to override, you have to create it in component dropdown.”
