Custom components by inheriting ActorComponent

[prokopst]

I've basically started with unreal engine thanks to your plugin. Creating custom components by inheriting ActorComponent seems like the way of doing things if I don't want to implement everything in a custom Actor. However it's not possible to inherit ActorComponent due to its constructor protection levels:

UnrealCLR/Source/Managed/Framework/Framework.cs

Line 7488 in 7372bdc

private protected ActorComponent() { }

UnrealCLR/Source/Managed/Framework/Framework.cs

Line 7490 in 7372bdc

internal ActorComponent(IntPtr pointer) => Pointer = pointer;

If I understand correctly sounds like the right constructor hasn't been implemented/exposed yet.

If it's not a rocket science I wouldn't mind to do that on my own, but I would appreciate some pointers.

You are trying to create a class derived from a non-instantiable abstract ActorComponent which can't be used for components in managed code since it has no native representation in the world from the engine's perspective:

Use SceneComponent with classes that derived from it.
