Running into this warning specifically. Created 4 ship BP’s derived from Actor. I am working on a new BP in which I want to set the components of each of the ships on start-up, but when I try to cast the Ship, I get this warning when trying to compile. ‘BP Ships’ does not inherit from ‘Child Actor Component’ ( Cast To BP_Ships would always fail).
The ChildActorComponent itself is not the actor class it will spawn. For this reason you can not cast the ChildActorComponent to BP Ship. Instead you must get the actual actor class or object from the ChildActorComponent and cast that. The properties you need for that are the “ChildActorClass” or the “ChildActor”

Sorry but this is not right at all.
