I'm trying to follow a C++ class to get more acquainted with the language and Unreal Engine. However, now whenever I start the program, the console window immediately closes. I've already tried fixing the subsystem stuff and I've seen some dirty code that wouldn't close the window, but I'd like to know how to get the problem fixed without trying to find a weird circumnavigation.
/* This is the console executable, that makes use of the BullCowClass
This acts as the view in a MVC pattern, and is responsible for all
user interaction. For game logic see the FBullCow`enter code here`Game class.
