Auto Localization fails without providing context as to why

Summary

I know that its something in our project, and I will soon find it, but auto localization takes a good 5 mins to complete and if it fails, it doesn’t tell you why or what asset caused the issue, making it days of work to pinpoint the issue in a large project.

After testing:
-Setting a small number of languages to translate doesnt affect it, still fails even with one
-PO format doesnt affect it (fails with both settings)
-Its an asset in our project that causes it. After deleting the asset, it works. However, I cant determine whether the asset is located in content browser or the level itself, as I have to delete a combination of both for it to work.

Disabling Arabic in translated languages fixed it for me (kudos to DevRel that helped me figure it out)
