Inputs

	Sleep Family ESleepFamily Enum	The set of values used in considering when put this body to sleep.
	Linear Damping Float	'Drag' force added to reduce linear movement
	Angular Damping Float	'Drag' force added to reduce angular movement
	Center Of Mass Offset Vector	User specified offset for the center of mass of this object, from the calculated location
	Mass Scale Float	Per-instance scaling of mass
	Inertia Tensor Scale Vector	Per-instance scaling of inertia (bigger number means it'll be harder to rotate)
	Simulate Physics Boolean	If true, this body will use simulation. If false, will be 'fixed' (ie kinematic) and move where it is told. For a Skeletal Mesh Component, simulating requires a physics asset setup and assigned on the SkeletalMesh asset. For a Static Mesh Component, simulating requires simple collision to be setup on the StaticMesh asset.
	Auto Weld Boolean	If true and is attached to a parent, the two bodies will be joined into a single rigid body. Physical settings like collision profile and body settings are determined by the root
