[0.18.2.0] Teleport Volumes Can't Be Activated/Hidden

Teleport Volumes can’t be activated either through IO Debugging or Connections via Condo/IO. This also seems to happen with Hiding and Unhiding.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Place down a Teleport Volume
  2. Set Players to OFF (so that you do not get teleported when inside the volume automatically)
  3. Either leave the default position or set a custom one, neither seems to matter
  4. Stand inside Teleport Volume, go to IO Debugging and click on Activate.
  5. Nothing happens.

Alternatively:
Go through steps 1-3 from above.

  1. Place down an object that has an Connection upon Interaction, in this case it was Sacrificial Stone with OnRest.
  2. Connect the object either via Tower Glove or the Connections tab to Teleport Volume
  3. Set the Connection of your Object to Activate.
  4. Interact with Object.
  5. Nothing happens.


What I expected to happen

The player (myself) should have been teleported after activating the Sacrificial Stone or Activate via IO Debugging.

What happened

The player (myself) was not teleported via the Teleport Volume either by Activation or interacting with the Sacrificial Stone.


Notes / Media

This also happens with Hiding and Unhiding on the Teleport Volume.
I have managed to make a setup with Canvas Buttons where pressing a Button would Unhide the connected Teleport Volume, and upon teleporting, it would Hide the Volume used. Getting to that point was full of inconsistencies such as above, requiring me to stash and place down Teleport Volumes until I was able to get it to work. It would also reset and unhide upon first loading the condo, which I would then have to go through the cycle of activating to make it hide itself.

I believe triggers await a collision check for them to activate, so turning on the object while inside of it will not trigger the check. Did you try moving a tiny bit after turning on the teleport?

Yup, I’m not sure how long a cooldown there’s suppose to be but I was running in and out, resting on the Sacrificial Stone, even reloaded my whole condo a few times.
