    3. AMEN to that. Horrific C++ support. I absolute detest VS and the fact Unreal is using it, instead of having its own internal built in solution. Iteration when working with c++ … is like hell and complete waste of time.

  5. If your project fails to rebuild when you click “Yes” after reopening it, open your IDE and make sure it compiles and builds there. If you have any errors then you need to resolve those and rebuild before opening UE4.
