Rotating objects pass through stationary player

[VectorF22]

Hey guys,

I’m currently making a Fall Guys level in UEFN. If you know anything about Fall Guys, then you know it’s known for its moving and rotating obstacles.

One such obstacle is the spinning bar. If the player touches the bar then they’re supposed to get pushed along for the ride.

This seems to work great if the player is actively walking/moving next to the bar, but the moment the player stops moving, the bar passes straight through them.

I feel like I’ve tried everything to get this work, including various Collision/Physics Settings, Verse for rotation and even a Sequencer for the rotation.

It seems like the correct solution should be to use the Prop Mover Device (Or a Rotation Device if one existed), as that has a property explicitly for “Pushing” the player when it collides with the moving object. It looks like it used to have rotation functionality which was removed for some reason and no alternative (that I know of) exists.

It also looks like others have encountered this same problem over the past couple of years without a resolution.

I created a Building Prop blueprint and added a cylinder to it, which I then rotate using Verse code. This appears to work ok, and if the player runs towards the rotating cylinder, they mantle over it. If they walk towards it, it pushes them around as expected. To me this suggests the collision detection is working as it should, but the problem is if the player stands still, the cylinder passed right through them. I have tried changing the Collision Presets to various options on the cylinder …

Looking to add collision to object moving with Level Sequence

I have a custom object that is moving and looping via a Level Sequence / Cinematic Device. The object moves fine but when it comes in contact with the player the player just phases through the object. How do I change it so the object that is moving pushes the player instead of phasing through them. Not sure if I want it to cause damage but that would be good to know as well. Thanks for any help! #collision #level sequence #UEFN

Others have suggested using a bouncer prop to add an impulse push the player, but I’d really like to avoid this if possible.

Thanks in advance!

Sadly these interaction object physics are a little limited on the current state of creative, and some of the only ways to make it work are the following:

• Make player be constantly moving, such as icy feets
• Adds other devices such as pinball bumpers/mutator zones and o thers to detect impacts and work along with on the logic for your map
