how to dynamically spawn child actors that can be transformed in editor?

poopipe

yeah - as above.

I want to spawn <n> child actors and allow the user to modify their transforms at editor time. The obvious ways don't work cos everything gets reset by the construction script. I'm sure this is doable, I'm just missing something

any ideas? examples?

thanks

figured it out

loose explanation

create an array of transforms and use that as your starting point for spawning child actors

create an interface to a build function and implement it on the child actor - you need to expose a transform variable and apply it in this function

in the parent actor set the child actor's transform variable and call its build event.
