Hi there,
I’m currently attempting to update my plugin to be compatible with 4.18. However, when I try to package it, I get a series of errors telling me that all of my .cpp files must include their respective headers first. However, I must also include the same precompiled header for all classes as the first include file. How can I get past this catch-22?
Example #includes in my Deathmatch.cpp:
#include "FPSWizardPrivatePCH.h"
#include "Deathmatch.h"
#include "FPSHUD.h"
#include "FPSCharacter.h"
#include "MasterWeapon.h"
#include "FPSPlayerState.h"
#include "FPSGameState.h"
#include "FPSSaveGame.h"
#include "WeaponData.h"
