is it possible to spawn actors and have them reside in a specific folder in the scene outliner, rather than all in one big list?

Hi,
to set the folder in the scene outline there is setFolderPath(FName path) in AActor’s editor specific functions.
To add an instance of AInputSystem in the outline under /SpawnedActors/System look at the following example:
AActor* spawnedActor = GetWorld()->SpawnActor(AInputSystem::StaticClass());
#if WITH_EDITOR
spawnedActor->SetFolderPath("/SpawnedActors/Systems");
#endif
Note: The function is only valid if you build one of the editor builds,not in the shipping build

Slash at the beginning will cause a creation of a second folder named SpawnedActors if one was already created by hand in an editor.
This should be:
spawnedActor->SetFolderPath(“SpawnedActors/Systems”);
