Cable Component Unstable

The cable component for me is constantly jumping or flickering when the object it is connected to is moving too fast and is too close to the camera. The objects the cable is connected to themselves are not jumping around, so the cable ends up disconnecting for split seconds. From a further distance (ie a third-person point of view), it looks fine and doesn’t have this issue.

The problem is visible in this video here as the grappling hook / rope deployed from the gun:

For those who run into this problem in the future, the solution is to set via blueprints the cable component’s tick group to post physics instead of pre.
