I’m getting a series of errors when I open my project which I don’t understand: ``` LogSpawn:Warning: UWorld::DestroyActor: World has no context! World: MotionControllerMap, Actor: /Game/VirtualRealityBP/Maps/MotionControllerMap.MotionControllerMap:PersistentLevel.DESTROYED_BP_Portal_Collection_C_CHILDACTOR_209 LogSpawn:Warning: UWorld::DestroyActor: World has no context!

What does this mean? ---

Hello , I have a few questions for you that will help narrow down what issue it is that you are experiencing. Quick questions: 1. Can you reproduce this issue in a clean project? 2. If so, could you provide a detailed list of steps to reproduce this issue on our end? 3. Could you provide screen shots of any blueprints/settings that may be involved with this issue? Note: The above appear to be warnings, not errors. ---

Hi, sorry, busy times so I had to let this slip for a moment. I created a new project, and migrated the level in question over to the new project and I’m still having this issue. Some of my baked lighting seems to be getting lost when I open and close the project, so I’m wondering if this issue has anything to do with that? I’m afraid I can’t really tell you the steps to reproduce this issue, as it’s a relatively complicated project and I have idea what’s causing it. Same thing with your third question: I wouldn’t know where to begin to identify the blueprint or setting that’s causing this! ---

The specific Actor that seems to be suffering from this issue is a BP that contains five other BPs all of which contain static meshes. The five BPs have all been scaled and positioned within the main BP, and then the main BP is scaled and positioned within the scene. Could the issue be something to do with how nested the transforms are? The issue link you provided calls it “warning spam”. For me this is actually also causing the lighting on this object to be lost every time I open the project. ---

Hello , The lighting issue may be a separate issue, I will need you to create a new thread for tracking purposes. After creating the new thread you can post the link in a reply here and some can follow up. I have provided some questions for you to answer for your new thread. Questions for new thread: 1. Can you reproduce this issue in a clean project? 2. If so, could you provide a detailed list of steps to reproduce this issue on our end? 3. Could you provide screen shots of the issue along with any assets that may be involved? 4. If you rebuild lighting does this resolve your issue? Make it a great day ---

Hey , I just tried un-nesting the asset, and it seems to work fine. Although it’s helpful to have the more complex version of the asset, I can definitely work around it and just use the individual components. Thanks for your help! ---

Also getting this issue with a streamed sublevel, the actor in question also has the REINST\_ prefix in it’s name… maybe that offers a clue? ---

This issue came back in 4.22.3 I’m using lighting scenarios and the problem is when you 're saving it, go to another map and come back, all the sublevels actors have their transforms reset to 0 and it’s breaking the lighting. ---
