Hello,
I am making a VR project using the Vive and Motion Controllers.
I made some blueprint functionality to spawn and attach a “sword” to the player’s Right Hand at a socket. However, when the sword is spawned in and attached, it sometimes causes the player to bounce into the air or sideways. If I move my hands into a certain pose, I can sometimes make myself indefinitely float higher into the air.
Also, I created blueprint functions to allow my character to walk based on the forward vector of my Left Hand. I noticed that if I spawned in the sword during movement, my movement direction will suddenly change, even though the Forward Vector of the Left Hand being logged does not appear to be affected.
I read through the links below and tried out their solutions, such as changing collision types of the Player, Motion Controllers, and Sword to different combinations of No Collision, Ragdoll, Query Only Collision, and I’ve tried setting Weld Simulated Bodies to true, but none of these seem to help the situation at all. I also tested moving the socket location to way off of the hand so that there is no possibility of collision with the hand or the player, but I still get the same issue.
I have also tried testing the Location/Rotation/Scale Rules for the AttachToComponent Node and Collision Handling Override of the SpawnActor Node with all of the options, but that also does not help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
