No errors shown but when i try to compile it keeps telling me it can’t debug even though I didn’t set it to debug. Converting from blueprint to c++ doesn’t work either for different problems which are: something is not part of UObject and unable to open source for .generated files.

Hey,

May you be great.

We want help you, but we need much more information, we can start with:

1. The code you are trying to run;
2. The compile Error List;
3. Are you using a C++ project or a blueprint based?

Bye.
