For some reason, this mod seems to prevent me from creating pawns (i.e., pressing the randomize button) when creating a game. There are other similar UI issues during game creation, too.

I have no clue why this mod would be the culprit, but removal solved the problem.
Here is a relevant output from the log. I'm not sure what I"m looking at here. But the "RenameGun.GameComponent" helped me identify this as the issue.
