Hi, There Fellow Unreal Peoples!

I am experiencing a bizarre issue with my C++ project inside 4.11.2.

The steps I follow to replicate my issue is as follows:

Edit → Project Settings → Description

Home Page: https://binaryshepherd.wordpress.com/

Press Enter

Text Is Highlighted in blue so it seems like it has saved

Edit → Project Settings → Game → XGame Settings

Account Server Url: http://127.0.0.1:1234/

Press Enter

Text Is Highlighted in blue so it seems like it has saved

Hit all the save buttons I can find in the editor multiple times! Spam click them save buttons so stuff is saved!

Close the project and re open it and the results is as follows:

The only not standard stuff I have is the following implementation:

Source->UnsungHeroes->Public->Globals->XGameSettings.h

#include "UnsungHeroes.h"
#include "XGameSettings.h"

UXGameSettings::UXGameSettings(const FObjectInitializer& ObjectInitializer) : Super(ObjectInitializer)
{
	// this->AccountServerUrl = TEXT("http://127.0.0.1:6969/");
}
#include "Engine/DeveloperSettings.h"
#include "XGameSettings.generated.h"

/**
 * Global Game Related Settings
 */
UCLASS(config = Game, defaultconfig)
class UNSUNGHEROES_API UXGameSettings : public UDeveloperSettings
{
	GENERATED_BODY()
	
public:

	UXGameSettings(const FObjectInitializer& ObjectInitializer);

	FORCEINLINE FString GetAccountServerUrl() const
	{
		return this->AccountServerUrl;
	}
	
private:

	/** Account Server Address */
	UPROPERTY(config, EditAnywhere, Category = "Servers")
	FString AccountServerUrl;
	
};

Source->UnsungHeroes->Private->Globals->XGameSettings.cpp

#include "UnsungHeroes.h"
#include "XGameSettings.h"

UXGameSettings::UXGameSettings(const FObjectInitializer& ObjectInitializer) : Super(ObjectInitializer)
{
	// this->AccountServerUrl = TEXT("http://127.0.0.1:6969/");
}

I have deleted the Intermediate and Saved folder inside the project and recompiled it in Visaul Studio 2015. I do not get any compile errors or warnings. The project works 100% except for the fact that these two fields lose their values.

I have tried compiling with the launcher binaries as well as the release build from github.

My main expertise is C# so maybe I am doing something dumb inside my C++!

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

project was created using a blank C++ project template using visual studio 2015 update 2 on unreal 4.11.2

Best Regards!
