RO2 Dynamic Meshes

[StmRtn]

Im having an issue with chairs and tin cans and other objects that are marked as can become dynamic. As I play the map in editor and I walk over these dynamic objects, some of them just disappear instantly or start spinning and moving around like crazy.

I did made the properties to look just like in the stock maps dynamic meshes, but it didnt help.

What I am doing wrong here ?.

Do you have your KillZ set to something lower than 0?
I set mine for -2000

Dynamic Static meshes are born that way, not made by checking boxes.

Cut-n-paste dynamic meshes from stock maps, you can always over-ride the mesh used in the advanced properties.

Open any stock dynamic mesh in the browser and you will see they have the "may become dynamic" selected. Don't ever change stock mesh propeties in the viewer. 1, it doesn't work, and 2, you're changing stock assets, bad and won't behave for other players or cause mis-match package errors.

If you must have a mesh dynamic, but isn't, in the content bowser make-a-copy and save it to your map package. From there edit the properties to dynamic. Altering advanced properties (F4) from the SDK inside the map doesn't work well, if at all.

So are you saying that if I for example take a simple chair from the browser and place it to the map and choose the collision to ''RO_Can_Become_Dynamic'' from the properties, doesnt work ?.

Even if I copy-paste a dynamic mesh ( e.g. chair ) from a stock map, it wont work either, they just spin and move around like mad when touched while playing.

The weird thing is at they worked way back when I started to make the map.

Yes, or will behave erradically... unless when you open the mesh in the browser it already has "become dynamic" enabled.

They should keep their settings. I've had zero issues cut-n-pasting with two instances of the SDK running. If you're switching between maps, then all bets are off.

Welcome to level design. Make sure you test them over a LAN/online, behaviors may change again. Cooking/brewing does matter, don't rely on PIE or the "workshop" option in game to play test your map.

No idea what I did but now they work again, damn miracles .
