I have a retarget up, and I’m trying to use the new Spatially Aware Retargeting on a character that can clip easily, but not sure how to get it to work. Tried filling in the bone names, nothing seems to work.

I did actually!

The Intersect Goals are just your IK Goal Names. _Make sure those bones for the IK Goals have Sphere or Capsule Bodies_

The Intersect Bodies are just the Physic bodies you want to avoid clipping through

Let me know if that works for you!

_In my video I typed the wrong name for the IK Goals 😅_

Hi, I seem to be having the same problem, entered in all the correct names for intersect Goals but I dont see the debug spheres, the intersect bodies debug shows up though

Oh I figured it out, in my case I had to make a new physics asset for the skeleton and not use the default Metahuman physics asset
