Animation System relies on FindFunctionByName which is not thread safe.

Currently, there are several places in FAnimInstanceProxy and FAnimNode_Base (and derived classes) that rely on FindFunctionByName in order to resolve transitions, evaluate pins, etc.

This can happen on worker threads, and can occasionally cause crashes.

FExposedValueHandler::Initialize (called in FAnimNode_Base::Initialize) is one example.

Might be worth looking for similar calls that may also be thread unsafe.
