In sapien, did you place it as a weapon, or an item collection?

Bounding radius? Put it as 1-10. Doesn't really matter.

When it comes to weapons, it actually does. If you set it too high, you'll be able to pick up the weapon from a mile away. The bounding radius determines the distance that you can pick it up from.

Since weapons are rarely more than 1 unit long, I'd set it to no more than 1. Most of the default weapons have it set to 0.1, 0.2, around those numbers. As long as it's not 0.

If the gun doesnt have same nodes and markers as the animation then it will not animate, or you can make your own first person animations.

i think hes saying the tag doesnt show up ingame, as a weapon doesnt need a model/fp or animations. a weapons can just be made to test effects and projectiles
