Mac Crash when foliage painting in QAGame with TallGrass_01 asset

Mac Crash when foliage painting in QAGame with TallGrass_01 asset

Description

This crash seems to only be reproducible using the TallGrass_01 asset in QAGame. Having other foliage assets selected sometimes prevents the crash, but usually any combination of assets plus TallGrass_01 will crash the editor when attempting to paint foliage onto a landscape.

This is a regression and does not happen in 4.16.3
Preparing to test in Main.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Open QAGame
  2. Shift + 3 to enable landscape mode
  3. Set the Section Size of the new landscape to 7x7 Quads and click Create
  4. Shift + 4 to enable foliage mode
  5. In the content browser, search for TallGrass_01 static mesh
  6. Drag TallGrass_01 into the foliage type panel
  7. LMB drag across the landscape to paint the foliage

Result: Editor crashes immediately.
Expected Result: Editor paints the selected grass asset cleanly onto the landscape.
