Spawned actor's x,y coordinates anomaly

gyroscope

When I spawn an actor, and in the actor that spawns it, put the y position to be self.Position.y, then surely the spawned actor should appear in the centre of the spawning actor? Id doesn't for some reason, but appears about 20 to 30 pxls higher. Am I missing something obvious here does anyone know please?

Is it "relative to actor" and not scene when spawning?

Have you got the 2 actors colliding with each other (most obvious thing i can think of) as this would cause them to jump apart.

Hi Darren, I have the spawned actor relative to the spawning actor, and there's no collision. Strange; I'm wondering if this is a bug that's crept in in .9? I'd appreciate it if you could do a small test if you've time, and see if you get the same results, thanks.

Just reread the 1st post...spawn the actor at 0 0 relative to actor (not self.position.y) that will spawn it directly on the x y of the other actor.

Silly me, of course, thanks again, Darren.
