just fixed it myself, the object you attach has to be a Blueprint lol (put the object into a blueprint)

If you don’t want to go that route, I usually just substitute another prop for the actor in the sequence,\* attach the child actor, then replace the parent back in. That helps circumvent that issue as well.

\*i always use the doughnuts prop, so I can remember to delete it afterwards.
