Remarks

ActivateAbility

The main function that defines what an ability does. -Child classes will want to override this -This function graph should call CommitAbility -This function graph should call EndAbility

Latent/async actions are ok in this graph. Note that Commit and EndAbility calling requirements speak to the K2_ActivateAbility graph. In C++, the call to K2_ActivateAbility() may return without CommitAbility or EndAbility having been called. But it is expected that this will only occur when latent/async actions are pending. When K2_ActivateAbility logically finishes, then we will expect Commit/End to have been called.
