Description

Adding multiple instances to instance static mesh component in a code class causes an ensure to trigger when an instance of the class is added to the level.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Open UE4 Editor (blank code)
  2. Add code to project based on Actor (MyActor)
  3. In MyActor.cpp, add the following to the constructor
    	USphereComponent* SphereComponent = CreateDefaultSubobject<USphereComponent>(TEXT("RootComponent"));
    	RootComponent = SphereComponent;
    
    	UInstancedStaticMeshComponent* ParticleVisualization = CreateDefaultSubobject< UInstancedStaticMeshComponent>(TEXT("ParticleVisualization"));
    
    	FName Path("/Engine/BasicShapes/Sphere");
    	UStaticMesh* sphereMesh = Cast<UStaticMesh>(StaticLoadObject(UStaticMesh::StaticClass(), NULL, *Path.ToString()));
    
    	ParticleVisualization->SetStaticMesh(sphereMesh);
    
    	ParticleVisualization->AttachTo(RootComponent);
    
    	ParticleVisualization->AddInstance(FTransform(FRotator(0, 0, 0), FVector(-5.6526e+07, 5.6523e+07, -3561.12), FVector(0.4f, 0.4f, 0.4f)));
    	ParticleVisualization->AddInstance(FTransform(FRotator(0, 0, 0), FVector(-5.68537e+07, -4066.15, 5.68518e+07), FVector(0.4f, 0.4f, 0.4f)));
    	ParticleVisualization->AddInstance(FTransform(FRotator(0, 0, 0), FVector(-5.77781e+07, 32644.8, -5.77864e+07), FVector(0.4f, 0.4f, 0.4f)));
    	ParticleVisualization->AddInstance(FTransform(FRotator(0, 0, 0), FVector(-5.81239e+07, -5.81233e+07, 15821.5), FVector(0.4f, 0.4f, 0.4f)));
    	ParticleVisualization->AddInstance(FTransform(FRotator(0, 0, 0), FVector(-56.2229, 11.118, 199.461), FVector(0.4f, 0.4f, 0.4f)));
    	ParticleVisualization->AddInstance(FTransform(FRotator(0, 0, 0), FVector(5.65258e+07, -5.6523e+07, 4072.48), FVector(0.4f, 0.4f, 0.4f)));
    
  4. Compile and launch editor in VS debug mode (F5)
  5. Add instance of MyActor class to the level

Result:
Ensure triggers when the instance is dragged from CB into the viewport
