My current project crashes every single time I save a new level. I am so tired of these random, fatal bugs. I use Nuke and Houdini every day and never have these kind of systemic errors. This is why I pick up UE and then put it back down. Very frustrated.

fixed. i had to open an already existing level, go to file \> save as\> random name.  
then it worked with a new level. it’s still a bug in the engine i believe.  
i really wish the engine will not crash for users, it’s only acceptable for epic engineers not for people using it.
