Unreal Engine Issues and Bug Tracker (UE-134320)

Description

After editing the parent emitters of a Niagara system with mesh renderer particles the engine will crash the next time the editor and system are opened. This was tested with both engine content cubes and starter content cubes.

This issue is occurring in Binary //UE4/Release-4.27 @ CL 17735300
This issue is NOT occurring in Binary //UE4/Release-4.26 @ CL 15973114

Marked as Regression

Steps to Reproduce

Create a new project with starter content
Create a Directional emitter and an Omnidirectional burst emitter
For each emitter navigate to the Selection panel, replace the sprite renderer with the mesh renderer
Select a cube mesh
Create a new Niagara System from selected emitters
Select the 2 emitters that were created
Once the Niagara system is created change the lifetime property of both emitters and save
Save and close the project
Reopen the project and open the Niagara system

Result
Crash
