Turning a self object reference into a soft object reference

[VikSpyder]

So, learning how to save and load. But the tutorial is saying to just drag the pin from the self reference to the soft object reference within the add unique and it automatically converts for the guy in the tutorial. But for me it just shows a message that says “Item Soft object reference is not compatible with Actor Action Utility soft object reference (by ref)”. It shows this exact message when I try to do it manually too. What am I doing wrong?

You can try

I don’t quite get why there a map of soft actor refs, though

[VikSpyder]

Oh, doing that is what i meant by manually doing it. I’ve been looking through the internet to find a solution and I’m completely stuck. I don’t know what to do anymore

[ClockworkOcean]

Ah, ok

I don’t get what the point of storing soft refs is. Which tutorial is this? Is it some sort of object pool?

[VikSpyder]

Ryan Layey on youtube. I’m doing his inventory series. And yes I believe it’s for saving the in world objects

EDIT: I’m on part 20 if that matters

[ClockworkOcean]

Ah, I think your array is an array of ‘Actor action utility’, no? It should be an array of actor soft refs.

[VikSpyder]

Ooooh, how do I change it?

[ClockworkOcean]

Just in the details, you’ve made the array of the wrong things…

Thank you so so much!!
