Description

Reported by licensee: [Link Removed]

In UE4, we used Multiply_Vector2DFloat as the underlying function for this operation. In UE5, we're relying on promotable operators to the work. However, that only works if we have a corresponding cast function. In this case, we're missing a Conv_FloatToVector2D function in KismetMathLibrary, which prevents multiplication in this case.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Open any Blueprint event graph (e.g. Level Blueprint).
  2. Add "Make Vector2D" node.
  3. Drag off the Vector2D Pin and search for "Multiply".
  4. Add "Make Literal Float" node.
  5. Try to connect the Float pin to the second Pin of the Multiply node.
  6. (Optional) Right-click the second pin of the Multiply node to change the pPin type to Float.
