Works fine in editor, not after launching/packaging

Hello !
First, I want to mention that I'm new to Unreal, and I'm posting here as a last resort because I could not solve this myself.
After following the instructions (more or less), I managed to get this working... only in the editor.
When I launch or package the project, I get issues... So far, I've tried setting it up in 2 different ways (it works fine in the editor either way).
-
Using the PBPlayerCharacter as default pawn class :
Game seems to work fine, but receives no input. I'm unable to move or look around.
I can still open the console and use it. -
Creating a blueprint from PBPlayerCharacter and using it as default pawn class :
Unable to launch the game, this error comes up
Using Unreal Engine 4.22.3, if this is of any importance...
Make sure you've set your launch profile to build the game.
I am sorry but I'm not quite sure of what you're asking me.
However, after changing some launch settings, this happened :
That might be related to the previous issue, or me changing the wrong settings
Edit : The plugin does appear in Edit > Plugins
How are you launching the game? You need to make sure that in your launch settings, you have the "Build" step checked.

At first, I was launching it from the toolbar. I also used the project launcher to create a new profile (and to make sure the build step was checked). However, I am still getting the same error.
The log might help.
Also, here's a screenshot of the project launcher after "completion"
Will try to check this out soon, but we have limited time so it might take a bit.
Is this a C++ project, or a Blueprint project? If it is a C++ project, you may have to add PBCharacterMovement as a dependency in your Build.cs.
It is a Blueprint project.
