I will explain what I’m trying to achieve, maybe there’s a better way.
I have this coins that the player can pickup, but instead of placing them one by one on the map, I want to be able to spawn coins along an spline.
So I created a Coin Spawner BP that I can place in the map, adjust the spline and automatically spawn the coins.
This works, no problem.
But I want the coins to be visible while I’m editing the spline in the editor. I can’t spawn the coins in the Construction Script, so I added static mesh components instead of using spawn so I can see the coins. This works too, but the thing is: in the editor (and only in the editor) I want to add the static meshes but in game I want to spawn the coins in begin play.
If there’s a way I can know if the construct scrips is in edit mode I can add the static meshes only in edit mode.
That’s because I want to see how to coins will look when I’m editing. The only way I could find to show them while editing was adding them as mesh components (only while editing, in game I want to spawn coins as they are Actors).
Here, I’m editing:
