Description

If the user creates a Standalone Window Editor plugin and restarts the editor then immediately plays the game as Standalone Game, the editor hits an assert.

[Link Removed]

Appears to only happen in 4.14 preview.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Create a new C++ Project
  2. Click Edit -> Plugins
  3. Create New Plugin
  4. Choose Standalone Window and name it
  5. After files are created, use "Restart" button in Plugins window.
  6. If asked to build <PluginWindowName>.dll, choose yes.
  7. Once Project restarts, play as Standalone Game
  8. Press any key on the keyboard

RESULT:

Game hits Assert:

Assertion failed: IsValid() [Link Removed] [Line: 794]

EXPECTED:

Creating Plugin and restarting doesn't crash the game when starting as Standalone Game.
