Chopped/Sliced ProceduralMeshComponent not receiving MouseInput events

Hi!

I have an Actor that contains a ProceduralMeshComponent. It receives correctly MouseInputs such as OnBeginCursorOver and EndCursorOver. With this I mean that the input capture is active and working.

Then, I slice the ProceduralMesh and then I lost any chance of capturing those events.
My objective here is to know each moment when the user puts the mouse over the ProceduralMesh. Unfortunately, after slicing, I lost it.

The mesh I am currently working with is a door profile, see picture.
Also I am using complex collision

I have already tried:

  • Unbinding and rebinding actor to the events after slicing
  • Deleting former collision mesh and adding the new one using the vertices from the chopped mesh

Anyone knows what is happening?

Hi found something that might be related. If I calculate the section view on another software, I get this. And when I calculate the slice on Unreal, I get “transparent” faces depending on where the camera is looking from. Is the resulting mesh not closed, affecting this to collision? Is this a bug?

Ok, at least I found the problem to the last image. It is because the Material was not “Two Sided”
So now I can see the material from the interior.

Unfortunately I keep having the problem of not beeing able to calculate the right section of the profile
