As far as i remember in older versions bouncing cards worked normally even if actor (the bouncing plane) is marked as hidden in game

actor visible build result ( [http://prntscr.com/bs45yr](http://prntscr.com/bs45yr) )

actor hidden build result ([http://prntscr.com/bs46w1](http://prntscr.com/bs46w1) )

is it abug… or it has been like that all along ?

how to avoid it ?  
thanks !

Hi Mdksmash,

This looks to be a regression in behavior. I’ve submitted UE-33238 for this to be tracked.

As a workaround you can can disable Actor Hidden in Game for these bounce cards before you build lighting. After you’ve built lighting you can re-enable this setting so that they do not appear in game.

Thank you!

Tim
