Summary

Target Dummy Devices Have a leftover hitbox that can’t be deleted or removed, tied to a Null Actor

Steps to Reproduce

Place a Target Dummy Device in the editor or in the create session. Then Delete the device in either area.

Expected Result

The Hitbox on the device should get deleted along with the device.

Observed Result

You will see a hitbox remain and can’t be removed, being a child actor to a None or Null actor in the outliner, which will then result in error logs and pretty much softlock your ability to publish because of “Illegal Property Modifications”.

Platform(s)

windows

Additional Notes

I have no idea why the Child actors of a Deleted Asset still linger around
