Custom variable type broken in 4.7.5

I have a Structure in the Content Browser, filled with data.
I have a custom variable with data type of this structure.
The default value is not remembered anymore. This worked before in 4.6.

I tried to recreate the structure and the variable. After closing and reloading the project, stuff is broken again.

Please fix this asap!

Hi btengelh,

I just attempted to reproduce this in 4.7.6, but I couldn’t get your results. Have you tried this after the latest hotfix?

Also, here is what I’m doing:

  • Created a struct with a bunch of variables inside

  • Set values for all variables so nothing has a default value

  • Created a blueprint with a variable for that struct

  • Compiled & saved

  • Restarted the editor

  • Struct shows values correctly

Let me know if you are doing anything differently.

I had to remake the whole structure and delete/recreate the variable in the blueprint to make it work again. I couldn’t wait and test a lot because this was in a core part of my blueprints and I needed this to work to continue working…

Anyway, since I really deleted both structure and variable and redid it, the variable now keeps its default value from the structure.

I don’t know how this could have happened. I had migrated this project from 4.6 a while ago (so this can’t be a migration issue).

If this happens again, I’ll post another comment and hopefully will have a chance to do more tests. Until then consider this resolved, please.

I’m glad you got it working again. Like you said, if it pops up again just post back here to reopen the issue.

Have a good day.
