Description

Adding a code class to a blueprint project causes the editor to crash after attempting to hot reload.

This only occurs for a fully bluprint project, code projects or BP projects that have already had a class added do not crash when additional classes are added

Regression:
Yes - same steps do not crash in 4.17.2 (CL 3658906)

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Open UE4 Editor (blank blueprint project)
  2. Add code to project based on Actor

Result:
Editor crashes after attempting to compile the new class

Expected:
Class is added / editor hot reloads after compiling.
