[raiguard][2.1.8] Blueprint file drag and drop fails for Linux Steam version.
Posted: Fri Jun 26, 2026 3:14 pm
Using the Linux version on Steam, not some PlayOnSteam thing.
With the Steam version set to 2.1.8 I open a new game and attempt to drag in a blueprint file and nothing happens.
To ensure everything was correct with new versions and potential changes I launced a new game, switched to editor, placed 4 storage tanks and made a blueprint. I exported the generated string, standard and JSON, to files. I also minified the JSON into a third file. The drag and drop for all three files failed silently. No error messages, no sounds, and no new blueprint in the cursor.
Performing the same action, with the same files, in the stand-alone version of 2.1.8 works as it has ever since the feature was introduced in 2.0.25.
What I expected is for the file to be imported as a blueprint to either place or save in the library.
(This actually failed in 2.1.7 but I was too slow to report it.)
Using the Linux version on Steam for 2.0.77 it still works as normal. (Attempting to rule out a change in Steam's interface.)
While there seems to be nothing helpful in the log file, it is attached anyway.
No save file is included as none was made or needed to be used. Stating with a new game.
