How should I be using the Actor.InputComponent?

I have just been playing with the samples and I’m getting null ref exception when I call InputComponent.BindAction()

public static class ObjectOrientedDesign
{
    private static Player _player;
    public static void OnBeginPlay()
    {
        Debug.AddOnScreenMessage(-1, 3.0f, Color.LightGreen, MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType + " system started!");

        Engine.AddActionMapping("TestInput", Keys.W);
        _player = new Player(nameof(Player));
    }
}

public class Player : Actor
{
    public Player(string name = null) : base(name) => InputComponent.BindAction("TestInput", InputEvent.Repeat, InputTest);
    public void InputTest() => Debug.AddOnScreenMessage(-1, 0.1f, Color.Aqua, $"Input {World.RealTime}");
}

Is this not the correct usage?

Yeah no doubt, you could also just start a subreddit until discussions go live. On a side note I had a thought for future improvements, as you have a core runtime, you could in theory use Blazor as a way of creating UI from code which would be insanely cool

Sure, I have been working with Unity for a while so a bit out of the loop on how things are done in Unreal so excuse the rusty knowledge with which classes I should be using for some things. If things go to plan though I would be much happier in Unreal with UnrealCLR than Unity, they are stuck on full framework and haven’t even gotten up to netstandard2.1 support yet, C# 8 isn’t fully implemented (no default interface implementations) as well as no Nuget integration.

I know a lot of actual developers (not script kiddies) using Unity will likely move to Unreal when this plugin gets fully off the ground. Have to say I’m really impressed with the coverage you have achieved in such a short space of time.
