Breaking up BP Actor into standalone actors/components - almost working, need help

[motorsep]

@eldany.uy

What are you trying to achieve?
You want to split the House actor (composed by a bunch of static mesh components), but you want to do that on gameplay, right?

No no, I need to do it in the Editor. Nothing needs to be done in runtime.

@eldany.uy

You need each part of the house to be an independent actor?

Yep

@eldany.uy

you actually can spawn actors in the scene and you can ADD static mesh components to actors…

That’s what my BP code does. Except somehow when I select resulting static mesh actors, they have no mesh assegned. I know it sounds bizarre, but while I can see mesh in the viewport, it’s None in the Details panel. So after I save/reload level, there is nothing showing on the level.

@eldany.uy

you can make a HOUSE_PART_BP actor with a single empty static mesh inside and from the house BP you can get all your static mesh components (root–>get all childs?) and then a for loop and for each static mesh you spawn a housePartBP actor and copy the mesh of the static mesh component of the loop into the static mesh component of the spawned actor… you follow me?

I … literally posted my BP code that works, and yet somehow I end up with empty mesh component (at least in the Detail panel). So this is what I need to fix.
