Description
The Virtual Parent Component is used to make a Slot act as the child of another Slot without needing to be in the normal hierarchy order. This can be useful when you need it to respond in a certain way using transforms of the overriding parent.
The different ways to force this Slot (that has the Virtual Parent Component on it) to update its own transform, is to move it by grabbing it, using other components to move it, or using Flux.
You can use the provided local offset fields to then further position this slot from its virtual parent.
