[0.17.11.0] Physics items randomly stashing themselves

I built something yesterday out of the shipping crates (physics). Everything was working as intended, I saved the condo and closed out. Today, I load it up and find that all those items were in my stash. All other changes exist, so it isn’t a matter of my save file not persisting.

I loaded up some old save states. The ones that work are the ones that don’t have the physics items linked to a timer that disables their physics and hides them so I think doing that for some reason caused them to put themselves back into my inventory.

Steps to Reproduce

Not sure, but I put out tons of the shipping crate physics items and had timers that disabled their physics and hid them.

What I expected to happen

For the items to stay where I put them.

What happened

The items disappeared after condo reload.

Could you DM me the condo file for this? It sounds like the physics are deleting themselves, which will stash them.

Often when I’ve dealt with self stashing physics objects they were rocketing towards some sort of far out kill barrier, usually caused by them falling into the void or odd player interactions.

Sorry for late reply, didnt see the message. I can send you it but I’ll mention I’m not currently having that issue.

I found a workaround was to make my buttons link to timers, that disable the physics and hide the items instead. But before I made those timers, it happened the one time. I’m unsure if it was just a fluke incident or if using the timers served as a workaround.

I’ll DM that file over regardless though.

So after I rebuilt my Jenga game and used some timers, I didn’t have the issue again. However, after the recent update all the physics crates have stashed themselves again.
