BUG Chaos. actor root does not move with destructible

[imtrobin2]

Reporting chaos destructible, when simulated, the actor is not moved even when destructible is in root component. There seems to be a PhysX destructible fix as mentioned here, but not for chaos

When simulation physics for a destructible mesh, the root component doesn’t follow. This means it’s hard to get the actual transformation for the destructible mesh. With simulation on a static mesh, the root component do follow. Is this how the system was designed or is it an bug. This makes things a bit harder if you for example want a character to carry destructible object, put them down, and pick them up again. We could of course switch between a static mesh and a destructible mesh, but agai…

I saw there is a “Update Component Transform to Root Bone”, enabled it, and it sorta works. However, when I destruct the geometrycollection, the pieces are not from where the actor is.
