Devices

Summary

When setting the volume device as the external volume for volumes that are confirmed to work with cube, cylinder, and custom shapes (such as damage and skydive volume) the sphere volume doesn’t trigger anything.

Steps to Reproduce

1.Create a volume device, set the shape to sphere.
2.Create a damage volume device, skydive device, or both.
3.Set one or both of the damage and skydive volume’s external volumes to Volume (Device you just created before this step).
4.Start the game and walk into the sphere

Expected Result

The volume would trigger associated devices

Observed Result

It does nothing

Platform(s)

PC

Additional Notes

I have tested with custom shape, cube, and cylinder and they all work.
My guess here is that the sphere shape wasn’t added to the list of trigger devices for the volume devices, perhaps thinking custom would encompass it, but as they say never listen to a users diagnosis of the problem XD
Best of luck.

PS: Mutator zone doesn’t seem to work with any of them.

Also, this is probably obvious but if you make a sphere mesh and then just set the volume to custom and use the sphere it works.
In case anyone is looking for a workaround.
