Steps to Reproduce

  1. Have a custom weapon in inventory, grant a normal weapon with item granter
  2. Have a custom weapon in inventory, grant a normal weapon with item granter (have ‘Equip granted item’ setting ticked on)

Expected Result

  1. Item gets granted into the players inventory and they can equip it.
  2. Item gets granted and automatically equipped

Observed Result

  1. Item doesn’t appear in the players inventory. When the game is stopped (with player inventory saved using a save point) and you reload into the map/start game, the item appears in the players inventory. (It must have just been hidden)
  2. Item doesn’t appear in the players inventory but it is equipped and shown in the players hands. The player is now stuck on the granted item and can’t switch off it (the switching problem is mainly on controller and not always a issue)
