Unworkable performance using child actors within blueprints

Dear,

Using several child actors within blueprints results in horrible performance within the editor. It is unworkable.

Besides the performance of child actors: Cannot set focus to child actor component in viewport, and variables cannot be changed of child actors. And in 4.8 the whole editor crashes when opening a blueprint containing several child actors

Thanks in advance and kind regards,

ERuts

Hi ERuts,

You chose 4.7 as the Product Version but your other issues are in 4.8. Is 4.7 the correct version to test this in?

I tested a blueprint that uses several child actors in 4.7 & 4.8 but I couldn’t get your results. Could you try testing this in a new project and seeing if you still get the same results? If you do, please provide a throughout as possible repro steps or a test project.

Hi ERuts,

We haven’t heard back from you in a few days, so we are marking this post as resolved for tracking purposes. If you’re still experiencing this issue, please feel free to post back here with additional information.

Cheers,
