Trying to create a destructible house for my game. Have successfully created a static meshing using the Modeling Tools from within the editor (1st picture). Have also successfully fractured the static mesh, and have setup a gun that shoots a projectile that spawns a FieldSystemActor on collision that applies an External Strain Transient Field, and a Linear Velocity Transient Field, for breaking the pieces, and then giving them a little push out like an explosion (respectively).
Issue is; now my player cannot enter the house. I changed the view mode to Player Collision and see that the house collision is almost malformed & the door is blocked.
My question is this: am I doing something wrong? I understand that Unreal uses a convex hull algorithm on the fractured pieces, but is this interfering with my ‘hollow’ mesh? Does fracture not work correctly on ‘hollow’ meshes? How are enter-able meshes supposed to have destruction? I tried fracturing a house that wasn’t 1 solid mesh (each wall & floor was a distinct static mesh), but then this looked weird on fracture, where the pieces would break off along the wall seams, which I did not want, as it is weird to shoot a wall 1cm away from a corner and to only have the wall you directly shot fall apart… not both that wall and the surrounding area.
