How do you set up the Enhanced Input with a custom Player Controller script?

Working on a CRPG/RTS situation where I figure it’d behoove the project to take the controller out of the characters. Of course my genius idea was to try this:

#include "GameController.h"
#include "EnhancedInputSubsystems.h"
#include "EnhancedInputComponent.h"

AGameController::AGameController() {

}

void AGameController::BeginPlay() {
	
	Super::BeginPlay();

	SetShowMouseCursor(true);

	if (this)
	{
		UEnhancedInputLocalPlayerSubsystem* Subsystem = ULocalPlayer::GetSubsystem<UEnhancedInputLocalPlayerSubsystem>(this->GetLocalPlayer());

		if (Subsystem)
		{
			Subsystem->AddMappingContext(CRPGMapContext, 0);
		}
	}
}

void AGameController::Tick(float DeltaTime) {

	Super::Tick(DeltaTime);
	UE_LOG(LogTemp, Warning, TEXT("ITS ALIVE"));

}

void AGameController::SetupInputComponent()
{
	Super::SetupInputComponent();
	


	if (UEnhancedInputComponent* EnhancedInputComponent = CastChecked<UEnhancedInputComponent>(this))
	{
		EnhancedInputComponent->BindAction(LCAction, ETriggerEvent::Completed, this, &AGameController::LeftClick);
	}


}

Of course it doesn’t work, crashes Unreal on play. Problem is, I can’t for the life of me figure out how to set this up properly. I’ve tried a few different things but am just completely lost. Could I get some guidance on how this needs to be handled properly please?

Is there not a way to do it or something? Would like to know if that’s the case too please.
