C++ Linker Error When Trying to Create HeterogeneousVolumeComponent

I double-checked and CoreUObject is there.

Might be a st00pid take from me, but isn’t this happening because GetPrivateStaticClass is a private method ?

I had thought the same but then why would the HeterogeneousVolumeComponent have it as private or not work compared to other components? Unless it’s just a minor bug that I have managed to stumble across :person_shrugging:

Here’s the non-constructor code - I was going to add the component to an array but I often just build as I go along and found that even this wouldn’t work. The constructor - CreateDefaultSubobject attempt I tried was even simpler, just creating the object.

“this” also refers to a component that inherits USceneComponent so I don’t know if that’s an issue (or even bad practice tbh)

for(int i = 0; i < ProjectileCount; i++)
{
	if(UHeterogeneousVolumeComponent* VolumeComp = NewObject<UHeterogeneousVolumeComponent>(this, *FString::Printf(TEXT("Volume Component %d"), i)); VolumeComp)
	{
		VolumeComp->SetMaterial(0, VolumeMaterial);
	}
}
