[0.18.1.1] Hidden Items Activate Trigger Volumes

Bug Report
1

When using TriggerEvents Movers, hidden items activate Trigger Volumes.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Place Mover Simple (w/ TriggerEvents on), Canvas Cube, and Trigger Volume (w/ Movers on)
  2. Connect the Mover to the Cube and set it’s path to go through the Trigger Volume.
  3. Test the mover to make sure the Trigger works.
  4. Hide the Cube
  5. Now test the Mover again and note that the Trigger still fires.

What I expected to happen

The hidden cube to pass through the trigger volume as it has no collision.

What happened

The Trigger Volume still detects the Canvas Cube.

Notes / Media

Movers combined with triggers are a very powerful tool for creating highly dynamic I/O creations. While this bug can be entirely avoided by instead moving the hidden object out of reach of the trigger, this is not always the most viable as it is most often accomplished by daisy-chaining movers (which in turn networks terribly to clients).
