Setting the Static Mesh Component in the Editor to the value of a variable

[Dumpis]

I have an Actor Blueprint that contains a Static Mesh Component.

I want the Static Mesh of the Actor to be variable, so I added a Static Mesh Variable to the BP, and I call Set Static Mesh to this variable value on Event BeginPlay.

However, I would like for the Editor representation of the BP to also be this variable value, but can’t figure out how.

I call Set Static Mesh to this variable value on Event BeginPlay.

This is correct, but you have to do it in the constructor instead of BeginPlay!

This worked like a charm, thanks!

I was initially confused because of the lack of a Construction Event in the Event Graph. However, I noticed the ConstructionScript in the Functions section and got it wired up there.

Cheers!
