Steps to Reproduce

If you copy and paste a child actor component of an actor to another actor, parameters such as the child actor class settings will not be copied.

This issue does not occur in UE5.4.2, but does occur in UE5.5.0.

See attached screenshots ​and video for repro

ChildActor.png

 This will be the actor that you have as a child actor component.

 This is a simple actor with just a static mesh.

SourceActor.png

 It has a child actor component, which has the actor in ChildActor.png as a child actor.

 The coordinates are also set.

DestActor.png

 This is the image after copying and pasting the ChildActor from SourceActor.png to DestActor.

 You can see that the Child Actor Class is None and the Transform Position is zero.
