Web browser widget breaks projects

I have been playing around with the web browser widget and while it works in the editor testing, it prevents any project it is in from building.

My reproducible steps:

  • create a new project from blueprint template (i.e 3rd person template)
  • add the web browser plugin from the plugins menu
  • create a blueprint ui widget that only has a web browser box in it
  • have gamemode add the ui widget to the viewport
  • build for windows (or launch button), it will build but open to a black screen and a fatal error prompt.

I understand it is experimental but it should be build able I would think.

Can anyone confirm that they can actually build with this widget? What might I be doing wrong?
