Or, quite possibly, you can get the FTickFunction from your component and do something like:
FTickFunction* TickFunction = Component->PrimaryComponentTick;
if( TickFunction)
{
TickFunction->bTickEvenWhenPaused = true;
}
I haven’t tried it but looking at the headers, it seems like it should work. And at least doing it that way means you don’t have to derive from components!
