### What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

Scene Graph

### Steps to Reproduce

- Place a prefab
- Add a mesh\_component
- Disable collisions but keep queryable
- Try different collision presets (mesh editor menu, tried Trigger, FortOverlapDynamicAndDestructible, and a bunch of others. None works.)
- Spawn a vehicle inside the “overlapping volume”
- You can’t interact

### Expected Result
