Is physics really difficult in UE4, or is it just me?

I don’t know why you’d expect the components to move together if bWeldSimulatedBodies is false? The component that isn’t welding itself to its parent will then run its physics simulation independent of that parent. If you want it to follow, but not be “welded” then you need some kind of joint?

I just figured that AttachTo would do just that, attach one object to another so that they move together. I thought the welding was some form of optimisation, given that it’s off by default. Seems like having a function like DoSomethingEssential(bool bYesReallyDoIt). I have turned off physics simulations on the objects being attached, and they just float away.

My aim with this thread wasn’t to trash UE4 btw, I just needed to know that I’m not alone! It’s cheaper than therapy, which I think I’m going to need by the time I figure all this out.
