Editor Utility Widgets Feedback

[Spoondog]

@Ratamorph

I made a editor widget that collects objects of some types and populates a list so I can avoid the clutter of the world outliner and have a place to easily select certain key types. It all works great but if I load another level when the list is populated the editor crashes with an exception on CheckForWorldGCLeaks. This is probably because I still have references to objects in my list and the GC can’t clean up the level properly. The question is, how can I clean up my list on or before level load? is there any functionality or work around for this?

@JDStrawesome

I am having a similar issue, except I don’t get CheckForWorldGCLeaks, I get an ObjectIsNotCurrentlyRooted, referencing the level that’s trying to unload.

I posted a suggestion in that thread that may get around your issue.

However, “on map load / unload” events would be much appreciated here too.
