    Hi all
    I am trying to get a moving object - a ball, to roll down the path. However, the ball falls right through the path once it spawns in. There seems to be so many bugs and issues surrounding collision and I am not sure if this is the problem.

    @ZackGriset videos just show static objects on a twisty path, but nothing moving toward the character. I've played around with un/ticking the Physics box on the Level path but it makes no difference.

    Toward the end of the video, I show the collision and it all looks very strange.

    I think you need to connect the balls to the path drag them under it.

    Hi thanks for your reply. I placed the balls as a parent of the path and it still has the same result. Moved them under, over the path and its the same.

    On the side view, the balls appear to be falling and colliding with something that simply isn't there.

    What are the ball and path physics set to?

    The balls are set to Kinematic. Otherwise I couldn't get them to spawn. I will try Dynamic and update a bit later. Off out now. But right now that is probably the only option I haven't looked at yet lol

    The path has no physics but I tried to turn it on but it still didnt work.

    That appeared to have worked. It was set to Kinematic, and I changed it to Dynamic.

    Yeah. The reason why they were Kinematic, it kept the balls moving in a straight line. With Dynamic, they tend to just steer to the left slightly lol
