Bullets Shoot Through Players

I have this issue, where bullets will go through players and will not emit the OnProjectileHitPlayer.

Gun and ProjectileLauncher are player owned and gun script is local. 

- When it is just me and NPCs, no issues, NPCs can be hit

- I was able to test with 1 other person and didn't have issue (could of been luck)

- Once I get like 3 or 4 players, bullets will now go through players, but its like player1 will have certain people that there bullets will hit and certain that will miss. Like it is random for each player.

- Haven't seen any issue with static objects.

    Updated after more testing.

    Using a portal breaks player collision. I tested this many times by directly traveling to Super Rumble, where no bug was occurred. I then tested many times using portal, where the bug would occur most the time.

    Going straight to super rumble: No Issue

    Go to rumble using portal, bullets start going through some players. It is at random but the players you can't shoot stays the same. So you some players you will be able to shoot and some you can't.

    To recreate this bug go to horizon lobby area, create portal to rumble and shoot at players. Keep in mind if you shot the guns it will trigger hit, it is the player collider that on some players you won't be able to hit.

      Hey FreakyChest, thank you for the extra information while trying to track down this issue. Please file this as a bug report in headset / mobile depending on the platform you are experiencing the issue on. Doing this sends the engineering team the logs needed to properly diagnose and debug the issue.

        Sorry should have mentioned I already submitted a bug report using the 4 button hold thing (not a fan of that bug reporting system, but did it). I also talked with some other creators like Vyker to warn of this issue. I have attempted a few times to get other players so I can confirm it with other players, but its hard to get players to test something like that, takes a long time for direct invites and boring to test bugs, so haven't been able to get 100% conclusive test of issues.

        If you guys need another tester I am down to recreate the bug with you guys, because it has pretty much stopped my progress of my world. Bringing in players using player dropped portals is the easiest way to invite, specially non friends (like horizon lobby).... This world is also for the current competition, so really hoping to figure this out if able.

        Also if you want another bug report with video I can do that, where it shows shooting through player. Thought it was already going to have recording when pressing the 4 buttons.
