Overlap & Collide Struggling

Aloha

I wanted to reach out and see if anyone is currently having a problem with the Overlap? I have a very simple rule that is 100% sporadic. I am basically trying to change a value (either Boolean or interger 0 to 1) and it truly is dysfunctional. it might change the value half the time.

you may need to describe better the problem....

The Basics. Collide works but Overlap only works 50% of the time.
If Actor1 overlaps with Actor 2.....Change Attribute 0 to 1 or False to True.....only works some of the time

Are any of them changing size during collision at all? Are any of the actors extremely fast moving? How is the layering between the two actors setup?

i think i know what your saying, but again, without seeing it your description is a little vague.

first thing you need to do is run a test on your actors to see what they’re doing. you can do that by creating a self attribute and putting a rule in that says if actor overlaps/collides with, change that self attribute to true (or 1 or whatever), then use display text to show that variable in the actor when you test.
