AI perception component on source built engine

So Ive been trying to get the AI perception component working on my project since 4.8. Ive tried using it with code and blueprints, but both ending up not working. I set up the sight sense but no matter what I cant get the perception debug trace to show or get it to react to anything. I discovered today that it works no problem on the normal pre compiled version of the engine but Im building my engine from source. Is there something Im missing that I need to do to get AI perception to work on a source built version of the engine. Thanks.
