Variables in Child Actor Template not Updating from Construction Script

Project showing the issue attached. Variables in child actor template not updating based on changes made in child actor's construction script.

Per licensee, "I'm basically trying to make a child actor that's pretty customizable, and while the template works well for directly setting variables, it would be great if for example, a bool checkbox could tell your child actor's construction script to run a function/update a variable and output the result in the child actor template, especially since the changes are being made, just not presented back to the user."

In new project:

1. Create new BP class>Actor (Actor1)
2. Create another new actor (Actor2)
3. Add child actor component to Actor1, set Child Actor as Actor2
4. Create a variable on Actor 2
5. In Actor2's construction script, get variable and set it or otherwise update it somehow
6. Compile
   Result: No change in the variable from the child actor template inside of Actor1
   Expected: Child actor template reflects the changes made to child actor's construction script.
