What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

Verse

Summary

Custom Props no longer spawn when using SpawnProp.

Steps to Reproduce

Create a Building Prop blueprint. Use Verse to spawn the prop:

NewProp := SpawnProp(PropToSpawn, SpawnLocation.GetTransform())

Expected Result

Should spawn our custom prop.

Observed Result

Custom prop doesn’t spawn, but there seems to be an invisible object in it’s place. I’ve tried setting it to Show() as well which didn’t work.

Platform(s)

Windows 11

2

The status of UCB-981 incident has been moved from ‘Done’ to ‘Closed’.

Temporary fix: Place a creative prop with the same creative prop asset you are trying to spawn somewhere in your map, the spawnprop should now work with that creative_prop_asset.

I also have this problem. The workaround of placing the same creative prop in the level so other assets can spawn works great.
