Description

Forgetting to add the "virtual" in engine code implementations of these _Implementation functions makes them not overridable by users. UHT should catch this and emit a warning/error.

For instance this made ACharacter::OnJumped_Implementation() unusable by users in 4.7.

Steps to Reproduce
  • Declare a BlueprintNativeEvent "Foo", and declare a non-virtual "Foo_Implementation" that does nothing.
  • Override this in BP or native code to print a message
  • Observe that triggering the event does not execute the overridden behavior.
