Description

Child component that is not simulating physics returns true value with IsSimulatingPhysics node

User Description:

"Is Simulating Physics" bp node will return true for any child component if root/parent component is simulating physics, even if child component in question doesn't simulate physics.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open the attached test project
2. PIE
3. See the value return true
4. Exit PIE
5. Open the 'BP_IsSimPhys01' to see the bp setup

Results: The child component will still register as simulating physics even though it is technically set to 'not simulate physics'

Expected: For the child component to print what physics state is set, not what is inherited from the parent
