Hey guys,
I’m creating a procedurally generated tile based city which is working fine in 4.7.6.
Now when I generate the city in version 4.8 I get gaps of 0.5 unit (maybe smaller) between my tiles.
You can see the grid below the gap.
This is how it looks in 4.7.6:
Now the really weird part is that this only happens when I rotate the instanced static mesh. If the rotation = 0, everything aligns perfectly.
Blueprint for spawning my instances:
Position = all round numbers and on the spot they need to be.
Scale = all 1,1,1.
Models = 1000x1000.
The models are also fine, because when I drag them into the level and position them myself they line up perfectly even when rotated.
There must be a weird bug with the transform of Instanced Static Meshes when you rotate them. It’s like they are scaled down by a really small amount.
Here is a test 4.8 project that shows the problem:

(Select the grid after you simulate and you can see the gaps where the yellow lines are when you zoom in a bit)
Just wondering if more people are having this issue or that it’s just me. Seeing that it’s working fine in 4.7.6, it must be a 4.8 bug :).
