Chaos Cloth - Fictitious Angular Scale is acting up when the cloth is teleported

UE - Simulation - Physics - Character - Apr 30, 2024

The Fictitious Angular Scale is still having an effect when the cloth is teleported.  Also it shouldn't have any effects when the velocity scale is set to 1 (as per tooltip documentation) but it doe ...

Chaos Cloth: NaNs can be introduced from bad AnimatedPositions/Normals

UE - Simulation - Physics - Character - Aug 17, 2024

We've worked out at least a possible way this can occur from using uninitialized AnimatedNormals values when changing LODs. Ensuring all AnimatedNormals are initialized appears to fix the problem. ...

Chaos : Rigid body sleeps when very small external force is applied by AddForce

UE - Simulation - Physics - Solver - May 25, 2022

When a small external force is applied to the rigid body, the VSmooth value is reset in the ResetVSmoothFromForces function. Since this function ignores the current velocity, a very small velocity ...

Chaos Cloth Self Collisions Spatial is slow when Tris are much smaller than thickness

UE - Simulation - Physics - Character - Apr 21, 2023

This came via a UDN. Very small triangles can generate very small lods, which make query time really slow if your self collision thickness is significantly larger. You will do X^3 checks per query ...

Issue when sampling landscape height at a given location using Chaos::FHeightField::GetHeightAt

UE - Simulation - Physics - Apr 2, 2025

This is an issue reported from a licensee: When sample landscape height at a given location, it is likely we interpolate from the wrong triangle. [Image Removed] Details in: [Link Removed] ...

A welded hierarchy blocks updates to collision settings on all but the root primitive. Calling SetCollisionResponseToChannel on the children won't work.

UE - Simulation - Physics - Nov 22, 2024

A welded hierarchy blocks updates to collision settings on all but the root primitive. Calling SetCollisionResponseToChannel on the children won't work. The licensee noticed that IPhysicsProxyBase* ...

The Remove-On-Break feature, set on Fracture Mode on Geometry Collections, stops shrinking and shows strange behaviors

UE - Simulation - Physics - Destruction - Oct 15, 2024

The Remove-On-Break (ROB) feature, set on Fracture Mode on Geometry Collections (GC), was supposed to make the particle shrink until it vanishes. When the GC goes to sleep the shrinking stops and sh ...

ChaosWheeledVehicleMovementComponent is breaking the const CDO contract and changes to the instances are being applied to the CDO

UE - Simulation - Physics - Apr 28, 2025

As described by the licensee, the const CDO contract is being broken on ChaosWheeledVehicleMovementComponent. The issue the licensee is facing is that by spawning cars with different configurations, ...
