Crash when splitting up output of collapsed node

LordStuff · February 13, 2017, 1:47am

So I was working on this Blueprint here:

When I now delete the Location connection, right click the Location node of the collapsed PositionAtCursor (which only calculates a HitLocation of the Cursor using GetHitResultUnderCursorByChannel) and try to compile after that, UE4 crashes.

This is easily reproducable:

In a Blueprint, create a “MakeVector” node.
From the Return Value, create a “VectorLength” node.
Right click the “MakeVector” node and click “Collapse Nodes”.
Alt+Click the connection to delete it.
Right click the Return Value of the collapsed node and click “Split Structure Pin”.
Compile.

This should instantly crash the engine.
I don’t know if this has been posted before, but I hope I was able to help with this.

Cheers!

I am, it’s not that it’s a real problem, you can easily avoid this. It kept me from opening a blueprint, as it crashed over and over, and I had to play in a backup.

I just thought it might be helpful to tell you guys!
