Summary

I’m using the Level Instance Device to make props appear and disappear using Triggers. The problem with this is that the props inside the Level Instance Device can be destroyed by certain items such as Proximity Grenades, Cluster Clingers, Etc. My Island settings are set to | Environmental Damage - Off | Weapon Damage - Off | Pickaxe Damage - Off | I’ve tried the Level Loader device as well as the prop manipulator to fix this and nothing has worked. I’m not sure why there’s not a setting in the Level Instance Device to modify the health of props or at least to make them indestructible.

Steps to Reproduce

1 • Build Something In A Level Instance Device
2 • Use Either The Level Loader Device or Level Instance Device With Your Building
3 • Set Enabled On Game Start to OFF
4 • Make The Device ENABLE When Receiving From A Channel (I’m Using A Trigger)
5 • In Game Settings Set Environmental Damage - OFF
6 • Start Game And Enable The Level Loader/Instance Device
7 • Use One Of The Following Items On The Build | Proximity Grenade - Cluster Clinger - Business Turret |
( There Could Be More Items, These Are Just The Only Ones I’ve Seen)

Expected Result

When following the steps above nothing should happen to the building in the Level Loader/Instance Device. The building should not be destroyed.

Observed Result

When one of these items hit the building in the Level Loader/Instance Device all the props/builds are destroyed.

Platform(s)

• PC (Only Tested On PC)
• Switch (Friend Playing With Me Experienced The Same Thing)

Additional Notes

That Is The Right Map Code, But It Hasn’t Been Updated So You Won’t See The Bug In That Map Currently.

I’m experiencing the same issue. I’m surprised this has gone so long without being fixed, as this is one of the primary use-cases of the device. I really hope it gets fixed soon so my map will work.
