Description

Lightmass is crashing when using a material that has "Cast Shadow as Masked" set to true in its properties.

Found in 4.18 P3 CL#3676890

Unable to reproduce in 4.16.3 CL# 3561208 and 4.17.2 CL#3658906, this is a regression.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Create a blank project
  2. Create a new material
  3. Apply new material to floor mesh
  4. build lighting
  5. open new material
  6. in the material properties, under Lightmass Settings, check "Cast Shadow as Masked"
  7. save the material
  8. build lighting

result: lightmass crashes
expected: lighting built successfully
