BP_VolumeGas not properly removing all gas pillars

I am trying to improve ExampleLevel by making the gas pillars have visible gas clouds. I've implemented the editor-only functions in

that set up the links between gas pillars and gas cloud, and I can see the clouds getting spawned at all 5 pillar locations. However, only 2 out of 5 pillars have their gas clouds removed when destroying them. How can I figure out what is going on? (attachments in follow-up because :CertifiedDiscordMoment:)

Solution

Works! So the key is that the effect height offset needs to be accounted for in my reimplementation of editor-only functionality. It's just a matter of changing one line. Attached the entire file just in case.

-                               mProximityPillarWorldLocations.Add(Pillar->GetActorLocation());
+                               mProximityPillarWorldLocations.Add(Pillar->GetActorLocation() + FVector(0, 0, Pillar->GetEffectHeightOffset()));

-                               mProximityPillarWorldLocations.Add(Pillar->GetActorLocation());
+                               mProximityPillarWorldLocations.Add(Pillar->GetActorLocation() + FVector(0, 0, Pillar->GetEffectHeightOffset()));
