so i made a small object then i added animated part to it. but in the blueprint editor previewing the object with the animation the animated object resized to bigger size. i guessing in train simulator you can only animated object to certain size. anything below that size will resize to big object.

i'm using blender

have you applied scale to that object in blender?

i don't think so. in blender you can copy object by pressing E and septate it from the main object that copy from and make it own object. here the thing i made becon light and added lens as animated object and it worked fine. the game didn't resize the lens object. i wonder if i have to make the animated object from ground up and not copy the object.

edit: so i made the lens from ground up and animated it and imported it to the game and same thing happen the animated object got bigger like in the pictures

sorry but I don't undestand what you mean, have you fixed your issue or not? also what about "E" copying object? "E" is for extrude... sorry but I don't understand

no i haven't fixed the issue. ah ok so E extrude the object.... thanks.
so what you said applied scale i haven't done that i'll look in to that


edit: well i got it to work but it baffles me on how i got it to work.
the old flashing light model is base off DTG road Cone model off of. and i added animated lens. i wonder if it sides number issues. the lens light has 6 sides.

new model i made i base off shots i found online. but i scale the new model close to the DTG road cone model size. but lens has 12 sides over the 6 sides on old model. then i made lens animated and it work well. new lens didn't resize it kept is current size and work amazing.

so i think for animated object that move there has to be more then 6 sides to object or it looked messed up. that my theory anyway.

Nice to hear that now works! It is actually an interesting theory, although am not sure why the game wouldn't accept properly animations with less than 6 faces, but at least now everything works, so that good.
