UE5 arcgis location component issues

[Brucaliffo]

Hi everyone, I'm having some problems with this component. I would like to move an actor or move my pawn to a certain position on the map (latitude and longitude). It seems that the solution to adopt is to use this component.

so I created an object with the right component

and now I would like to move it

but by doing this the editor crashes giving me this error:

I don't understand if I'm doing something wrong or if there is a problem

😞

Hi!

The last line of the call stack appears to be calling GetWKID() which would be for the spatial reference. In your Blueprint it doesn't look like you're creating the geometry with a spatial reference - try adding that (ArcGISPoint | ArcGIS Maps SDK for Unreal Engine | ArcGIS Developers).

Ideally you'd get a nice exception message and the Editor wouldn't crash - something for us to look into.

Thanks

Yes you right, I just discover it some minutes ago, now it works. Thanks mate

Maybe runtime error is not the best approch in my opinion 🙂
