So all of a sudden I started to have this issue with linker errors. The project was fine, working and packing no problem. I used DebugGame Editor config.
I added new actor component class in C++ and my solution stopped building even though I reverted adding new class. The thing is: it works no problem in Development Editor config, but DebugGame Editor now gives me these errors even though I used it before, it is very strange and looks like a bug.

Here’s what I tried to do:
- Remove all the temporary folders and regen the sln
- Rebuild the engine with debug\debuggame configs
- add modules to Build.cs
This is how my modules currently look like, after this issue started to happen I added a bunch of them
> PublicDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string { //
"Core", "CoreUObject", "Engine", "InputCore", "EnhancedInput", "Niagara", "PhysicsCore", "GameplayTags", "GameplayAbilities", "RHI", "RenderCore"}); PrivateDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string[] { "GameplayTasks", "EditorStyle", "UnrealEd", "Slate", "SlateCore", "EditorSubsystem", EditorFramework", "AudioPlatformConfiguration", "Chaos"});
Any help would be appreciated, I can work in Dev config for now but this is strange and I would like to switch back to debug asap
