Adding components to Shooter Game Sample actors?

[anonymous_user_d649bfbb]

I managed to solve my original problem. I was able to add the C++ Actor Component I created to the existing Shooter Game PlayerPawn by adding a component object directly to the ShooterPlayerCharacter.cpp file.

AShooterCharacter::AShooterCharacter(const FObjectInitializer& ObjectInitializer)
	: Super(ObjectInitializer.SetDefaultSubobjectClass<UShooterCharacterMovement>(ACharacter::CharacterMovementComponentName))
{
	Mesh1P = ObjectInitializer.CreateDefaultSubobject<USkeletalMeshComponent>(this, TEXT("PawnMesh1P"));
	Mesh1P->SetupAttachment(GetCapsuleComponent());
	Mesh1P->bOnlyOwnerSee = true;
	Mesh1P->bOwnerNoSee = false;

	MyAbility = ObjectInitializer.CreateDefaultSubobject<UShooterMyAbility>(this, TEXT("My New Ability"));
}

When I run the game in the editor, I can now select the PlayerPawn and see the desired component attached.

The crash still occurs when I try to convert the PlayerPawn actor to a Blueprint but such is life.
