I am currently following the getting started with unreal engine 4 tutorial . I complete beginner to it. And now i am currently following the blueprint tutorial. So in the project i created a simple class blueprint with actor component . But when i opened that blueprint i couldn’t see tabs like viewport, construction script. And when i tried to find them in the windows tab, they were absent there to. Here are some of the images:
Actor Components are used for reusable behaviour and do not have a constructor.
They also do not need/have a viewport.
What you’re looking for is most likely a Blueprint Actor.
As Everynone stated you are definitely looking for Blueprint Actor. Give that a try and let us know if that works. I believe the basic tutorial only touches on Actor and not Actor Component. But I see where there might have been confusion
