Shooting Static Mesh Crashes RF (Resolved)

[steven8]

I made an actor ball to help out Flanker27. I made it a staticentityproxy, and dropped it in the level. Just for the heck of it, I shot it. The engine crashed. I tried a few times. Same each time.

I'm using 075C w/federico's physics overlay.

[darksmaster923]

its probably a problem with fredricos physics

[Juutis]

I had the same problem. I think adding a PhysicsSystem entity fixes it.

I'll give that a go. Thanks!

[steven8]

That got it!! Thanks, Juutis!!!!!

[federico]

sorry. I didn't understand you were talking about me.

Yes. I got to fix it for the next release. When an actor is hit by a projectile the system checks if there's a physics body attached to the actor and a force is applied. If the physics in not initialized the check results in a crash.

I released a patch that fixes this bug and (I hope) the time paradox. Testing is welcome.
