Problem with AlignOrientation + HingeConstraint

[acreol (arto)]

AlignOrientation doesn’t update when you use HingeConstraint to change the orientation of an attachment

You have to manually change a property of the AlignOrientation for it to recognize a change and then it will update

Edit Under similar circumstances, pretty sure this happens with AlignPosition as well.

Edit 2 If this is intentional or will be fixed in a while please say so I know to go about this with a different approach

Seems like a bug. Seems like the motion of the target part doesn’t trigger a “wake” on the part with a Align constraint. Will file it for @chefdeletat.

Please enable ReactionTorqueEnabled on AlignOrientation. This will join the two parts into a same mechanism and they will awake together
