SetMaterial() doesn't work on teleported prop if player is not close to the origin

Summary

I encountered the same issue as in this old post:

if in UEFN I create a Prop far away from the player spawn zone (game zone), when I teleport the prop close to the player and I try to use SetMaterial(), it doesn’t apply the new material. Anyway, if I manually move the same prop closer to the game zone in UEFN, then I start the game, SetMaterial() works properly.

Steps to Reproduce

  • create a prop very far away from the player (my x: 4700)

  • use SetMaterial() in verse

  • start the game (SetMaetrial() not working)

  • Move the prop closer (like x:1500)

  • use SetMaterial() in verse

  • start the game (SetMaetrial() working)

Expected Result

SetMaterial() should always set the material, even for props with an origin far away from the player

SetMaterial() not working on teleported props with an origin far away from the player
