Description

Reported by multiple users. When in a networked session a GameplayEffect is automatically removed due to:

  • a tag being added that's not allowed, or (TargetTagRequirements.RemovalTagRequirements.MustHave)
  • a tag being removed that is required (TargetTagRequirements.RemovalTagRequirements.MustNotHave)

an error and ensure are triggered:
LogGameplayEffects: Error: TargetTagRequirementsGameplayEffectComponent_0 tried to unregister GameplayTagEvent 'MyTag.Dependency' on GameplayEffect 'Default__GE_Dependent_C' but failed.
LogAbilitySystem: Error: ~FScopedActiveGameplayEffectLock has 1 pending removes after a scope lock removal

Possibly this is due to the client attempting to remove the same GE twice: once by replication from server and once due to local calculation that the GE should be removed.

Steps to Reproduce

Repro steps in ThirdPerson project with an ASC added to character:

  • Create a GameplayEffect GE_Dependency and GE_Dependent, both infinite duration
  • Let GE_Dependency have a TargetTags GE comp with:
    • AddTags.Added: MyTag.Dependency
  • Let GE_Dependent have a TargetTagRequirements GE comp with:
    • RemovalTagRequirements.MustNotHave = MyTag.Dependency
  • At BeginPlay on server only, add both GEs to the ASC
  • Create a debug key P that sends a server RPC to remove GE_Dependency by handle

Start PIE with server + 1 client. On the client, press the debug key P. This triggers the server removing GE_Dependency. As per GAS rules, GE_Dependent should now be removed because it's missing required tag MyTag.Dependency.

However, now the ensures from the description are hit. Expected: No ensures are hit.
