Props and lights disappear/blow up when the game starts.

Summary

Props and lights seem to disappear when the game starts. Upon further testing, they specifically blow up after the game starts.
This is mainly observed with arcade assets, but it may happen with others that have not yet been observed.

Assets

Steps to Reproduce

Process One

  1. Place Crime City Epic Mega Arcade in UEFN

  2. Run the session and observe missing arcade machines and lights

Note that some may actually spawn. For example, certain arcade machines upstairs. If you duplicate it in the engine, the copy won’t spawn.

Process Two

  1. Search “arcade” in the content browser and place all associated assets

Note that if you run the game now, you may see some arcade machines.

  1. Separate all assets. This was done to find which ones actually spawn. While testing, some do spawn; however, after separating everything, they all blow up when you start the game.

Light test

  1. Spawn in NeonLight associated with arcade
  2. Play game

Expected Result

The expectation is that you have the whole arcade with lights and machines.
The other expectation is that you can place any arcade machine from the content browser and have it in your game.

Observed Result

After starting the game, you should find that the arcade is missing lights and machines.
Otherwise, if you just have the assets. They should blow up upon spawning in-game.

Additional Notes

This can potentially happen with other assets. I just noticed it with this because my entire arcade was gone. I have noticed lights not spawning before, but I would just use a different asset.
