I have an actor type variable inside an actor component. Why is that variable not showing up in the actor owning the component?

Thanks.

Hey there. I recommend double checking if the variable is Public in the Actor Component BP.
If the eye icon to the right of the variable type is closed, click it. The icon will change to an open eye, denoting a public variable.
Then, compile the component and check your Actor again

Thanks, I checked, re-checked and quadruple checked. I even put other variables of different types, and they show up just fine. It’s just the Actor Object Reference type that doesn’t show up.

Oh, by the way, Soft Object Actor reference shows up just fine.

That’s odd. Could you please share a screenshot of your Actor Component, including the Details Panel with the Actor variable selected? Maybe also a screenshot of the actor where you’re attaching it.
