[2.0.11] Cannot place blueprint copy in book when remote view is open (MR)

Post by EinsteinV »

The game refuses to let the player place a copied blueprint into the blueprint book when the map (remote view is open).

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open (right-click) a blueprint book that contains 1 or more blueprints
2. Right-click a blueprint to edit it
3. In the top left click the blue "Select new contents for the blueprint" button
4. Open the [M]ap view (remote view) -> this is vitual to the bug, the map should be open in the background
5. Select something new or press the Q key to stop selecting (it does not matter, step 4 is the key)
6. Save or close the blueprint dialog
7. (You are now in the blueprint book, with the map open in the background)
8. Right-click any other blueprint to edit it
9. In the top left click the blue "Create copy of this [blueprint?]" button
10. With the copy now on the mouse cursor, try placing it in the (still open) blueprint book -> it does not allow it

I can make a new blueprint book in remote view, and add a blueprint to it. But then when I close and reopen the book, I can no longer pick up or move or add new blueprints to it.

But I also have one blueprint book that predates experiencing this problem, and I can do everything with it, even in remote view.

EDIT: AHA! If the book exists in my blueprint library, I can interact with it normally in remote view, even from the quickbar. But if it only exists in the quickbar, then I can't.
