I’m using Unreal Tournament Editor Version 4.12. Example #1: Create a blueprint. Do not add any components (except for maybe a scene component to get rid of the circle). Set it up as follows - be sure to set the “mobility” to “static”. Compile and Save. Drag it into your viewport. This is the result: [https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1997866/PublicForForumsWebsitesDONOTDELETE/2016/05/2016-05-28\_08-46-01.png](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1997866/PublicForForumsWebsitesDONOTDELETE/2016/05/2016-05-28_08-46-01.png) Notice how it’s purple? This means the “Mobility” setting for the “spline mesh component” is being ignored and it’s defaulting to “movable” no matter what I do. Example #2: Reuse the current blueprint. Delete all nodes and configure it like this - again be sure to set “mobility” to “static”.

Hopefully this gets resolved. 🙂 Thanks! ---

Hey, we got a similar problem while trying to bake some instanced meshes. You either have to do it in code or you grab the [Victory Plugin][1] from . There is a BP Node called “Mobility\_\_SetSceneCompMobility”. ![92709-mobility.png](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/c/1/2/c1270f5d14f6321f36d463c89a423bf922b7b0fe.png) Cheers ---

Hi , This is a known issue and is in our system as UE-23026. Unfortunately I do not have a timeframe of when it will be implemented.
