Description

This was the simplest solid repro I could get on this bug. The callstack is similar to [Link Removed]

Also came across several Shader Compiling Manager crashes while attempting to repro this crash but no repro ever worked twice like [Link Removed]

This does NOT happen in 4.14.2 so this is a Regression

Steps to Reproduce

Repro using regular materials:

  1. Open any project
  2. Create a material
  3. Add a StaticSwitchParameter node
  4. Add a Texture Sampler Parameter 2D and assign a default texture.
  5. Connect the texture through the StaticSwitch True input to Base Color
  6. Connect a Constant 3 Vector to the False input
  7. Create a MaterialInstanceConstant of the material that overrides the StaticSwitch and sets it to True
  8. Apply the MaterialInstanceConstant to a static mesh in the scene
  9. Delete the the parent material in the content browser

Result: The Editor crashes
Expected Result: The material successfully deletes
-------------
Repro using Landscape

  1. Open any project
  2. Create a landscape layered material
  3. * In the material editor > place a landscapelayered node > add to the landscapelayered array > attach a vector 3 color node to the landscapelayered node > save the material
  4. create a landscape
  5. apply the landscape layered material to the landscape
  6. Go to the paint section in landscape mode
  7. Create a weighted layered blend
  8. Paint the layer on the landscape
  9. Delete the material

Result: The Editor crashes

Expected Result: The material successfully deletes and the landscape goes back to default material
