Often times when I modify the contents of an interface, struct, or function that is being used elsewhere, nodes involving/connecting with these elements will automatically become unhooked and/or the Blueprint tab containing it will need to be recompiled. I usually won’t even be aware that another tab is “broken” until I’ve already attempted to compile elsewhere.
While it is sometimes just an annoyance, there have been several occasions when the entire engine has crashed on me - even a time when the engine crashed on boot up - all because some asset somewhere needed to be recompiled.
It would be very helpful if, as a developer, I could be given some sort of advance notification informing me that the operation I had just performed had changed something that might require my attention before I will be able to proceed without any problems.
