Summary
Hello everybody,
I’m having as issue that looks like a bug, but i am working somewhat out of my depth at the moment, so i want to make sure;
I am working on a cinematic animation on an object for a client. I have to animate various pieces of this object, some much more complex than others (for example, simple single pivot rotations vs full piston mechanisms and bendable cables).
Due to this, i decided to do a blueprint for the simple parts where i mapped every simple rotation to a variable to be edited both in sequencer and editor (using Construction Script), and i did a full control rig for the complex part, which i then inserted into the blueprint to be controlled in Sequencer.
As usual, I enabled “Run Construction Script in Sequencer” in the BP Class Settings, which works well, until i have to use the control rig inside sequencer. If “Run Construction Script in Sequencer” is enabled, the control rig stops working and the manipulators disappear. I Imagine there must be some conflict between Construction Script and Control Rig; I could just paste my construction script into Tick at runtime, but that would significantly slow things down i guess.
Has anybody experienced this before?
I unfortunately cannot share any pictures of the product itself as it is protected;
I am Using UE5.5.3 on Windows 11 10.0.26100, Running an RTX 5080 and an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X.
Thanks in Advance!
