After calling the TeleportTo function on item spawner device and then try to spawn the item, the item will spawn on the old item spawner device position and not the new one.
Steps to Reproduce
Place a item spawner device. Teleport the device with TeleportTo function in verse. Spawn the item.
Expected Result
The item should spawn where the item spawner device have been teleported to
Bumping! This bug still exists and is very annoying. This makes it seemingly impossible to spawn an item in any location, which is unfortunately pretty critical for the game I want to make. Does anybody know of any workarounds? @Kasity were you able to solve this?
No i was not. I made i pretty cheese workaround that i don’t think work in many cases. I created a chest with the weapon i wanted to spawn. Teleported it to the location and the teleported a explosive device that exploded the chest to make the item drop xD. If you have different weapons you can create more chests and then control trough verse. Maybe you can make the chest to a prop and then use verse to destroy the prop. Top of my head i also think you can spawn devices trough verse Spawn devices dynamically using Verse! (And a bit of cursed tricks) | Community tutorial . I think you can maybe spawn a item spawner where you want the item to spawn and every time you need to move it you spawn a new item spawner at that location. I hope you find a solution .
This almost sounds similar to an issue I was seeing with NavMesh when moving a prop:
The tl;dr was that whenever I’d move a prop, the NavMesh would remain in the original location. In your case it seems like some kind of location is being preserved for the device.
The only suboptimal workaround I’ve tried so far that worked is using a Cinematic Sequence Device to move my prop. Maybe you can try to move your item spawner device with a sequence to see if that works?
I was curious and tested it and i didn’t get it to work with the sequencer. Maybe i did something wrong so maybe a workaround exist with the sequencer.
@jhrach700@Kasity Hi there, after some curses and swears :D. I think there’s a way to work around it.
On Item Spawner Device Details Setting. There is an option (flag) name: Continuously Spawn Items
Just tick it on.
In my case, after player open the chest, the chest and interact button will be hidden so this works for me.
