Description

RelativeLocation and RelativeRotation in the root component are collected in UActorComponent::AllUCSModifiedProperties, so copying simulation result is skipped in EditorUtilities::CopyActorProperties.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Create a blueprint based on AActor
  2. Open the blueprint
  3. Add StaticMeshComponent and assign a static mesh
  4. Replace Root Component with the StaticMeshComponent
  5. Set mobility to movable
  6. Set Simulate Physics to true
  7. Compile and save the blueprint
  8. Place the Blueprint into a level
  9. Start Simulation
  10. After the actor is stable, Open context menu on the actor and select Keep Simulation Changes
  11. End Simulation

 

Result:

"No properties were copied" notification is displayed in step 10.

And actor location will be restored to original location at end simulation.
