Currently ont ToonTanks UE5 course and cannot live code my c++ classes.
I cannot see the live coding button and the shortcut CTRL ALT F11 does not work.
The same thing happened to me on a project that I migrated from UE 4.27 to UE 5 and haven’t been able to reproduce it anywhere else or find a solution. You can use Ctrl + Alt + F11 to trigger the live coding compilation and is what I use all the time for that project. Some people have said that it also happens if you start a blueprints project and then add a C++ class to it to turn it into a C++ project.
This is a thread on the UE forums of someone experiencing the same issue.

This is because it is based on a blueprints project. Once you add in your first C++ class it should reappear.
For me my project was always C++ and never blueprints only and issue still happened but I did do a UE4 → 5 migration and haven’t seen it happen in other projects.
Yea, this is because the template for toon tanks is configured as a blueprint project like I mentioned and on add of a C++ class, the compile should trigger automatically.
Note that the button is compile, not live coding which is differen and refers to the way things are compiled.
