Construction Script executes 3 times when an actor is dropped into scene, with Class Settings → Run Construction Script On Drag’ disabled. I’ve included a simple repro project.

Thank you, there is an ‘Unknown Issue’ error under this link though. I see that some of issue reports stopped being public, is this some kind of error in the system? Public issue tracker relieved some of the hassle involved with people constantly asking if certain issue is fixed, it would be good if it could stay this way, public.
