    Hi All

    I'm wanting to use the physics system with transforms (parents and children) and only the Cast* methods (at the moment), my entitys are a child of a Ship which moves and some of those entities move within the ship too but none move with physics. I'm hoping to just use the Physics system as a query engine

    For a quick test I removed Translation and Rotation and used LocalToWorld, I also removed the code that removes the Parent link and it worked!! almost

    I have some super weird rotations going on and I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas the render mesh systems render correctly.

    Also is there any plans to integrate better with the Transform System, specificly child parents

    Turns out this was actually a easy fix, all I needed to do was recreate the quaternion instead of the one provided by LocalToWorld, I now have colliders attached to enitities in the hierarchy.

    Still have no idea what other effects this could have, but for now seems to work fine
