SoftObjectPath with short package name 'NSLOCTEXT'! Error. What does this mean? How to fix?

Help. I’m getting hit with this build error “SoftObjectPath with short package name ‘NSLOCTEXT’! You must pass in fully qualified package names”

I’m not sure what NSLOCTEXT is but opening the BP in Notepad I find it in every one.

I’m out of ideas and desperately need help.

Solution here

Even though most people see “NoneNone” as the problem, the solution still worked on my issue.

Note that it’s necessary to double click on the stack trace instead of hovering and it’s necessary to search through the map for clues as to which BP and variable is causing the issue.
