Unreal Project External dependencies

Hi There, I am trying to create a PaperCharacter Class and migrate the code from the SIdeScroller2D into it but as i have found out the external dependencies are missing… i have added paper2D into the built tool and the uproject file built the project but to no avail… the dependencies are not added. I feel as if i am going in circles about something really simple can someone help?

Long Story Short as to not leave this unanswered just Create a Paper 2D template project the same name as your current project and then copy Paste your Source code into it (Delete your original project) and done.

Its not a real sollution i know more of a workaround but it will have to do for now.

Would be nice to have some way to save to the external dependencies folder though. I thought maybe you could simply save to a local directory and then drag and drop the location inside MSVS but it doesn’t show up in the list after I save the file which is really frustrating.

Thanks for the workaround though.
