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

Well, after spending 2-3 days on trying to get physics to work, I figured out the main cause of my grief was in the welding. Instead I put in a PhysicsConstraint and now it works perfectly.

zoombapup - your advice to look into the physX side of things was very useful to me - I can now set the center of mass and rotational inertia properties which you can’t do otherwise. So thanks for that. While it’s do-able, physics is a core component of any game engine, so it’s really very disappointing to have to have to wrestle and ultimately bypass things that should really just work out the box.
