Description

The USplineComponent appears to be corrupted. It will pass the null check, but operations done on the data cause the engine to crash. (See the linked UDN for more details)

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Create a Niagara system with a spline user parameter
  2. Create a blueprint with a spline component
  3. Add both to a level (This but crashes every time the level opens, so you might want to make a level just for this)
  4. Set the override parameter of the spline data interface to the blueprint with the spline component.
  5. Save the level
  6. Reopen the level.

RESULT:
The engine will crash every time the level is opened.
