I’m using the “Copy Pose From Mesh” node for my character’s cloths and it lags behind the parent pose by one frame so it’s unusable. Any idea how to fix?  
I read it can be fixed if you let the parent component tick once beforehand but nothing I do to achieve this works. Even making a new actor after a delay then using that didn’t work.

Found the issue.  
It lags only if collision is enabled on the parent.  
I disabled collision and made a new child body that’s invisible but has collision enabled. Hope this gets fixed in the future.

That doesn’t work for me.

But I successfully solved it by changing Tick Group in SkeletalMeshComponent, Set your character to ‘During Physics’ and set your clothes to ‘Post Physics’, this worked for me.
