Physical reactions - Not true physics?

I don't think the Collision physics or Physical reactions are actually treated as solid,
I don't know about any one else, but any physical response on my PC seams ' weak ', EG If an actor is colliding with another and another actor bumps the first actor, the first actor can fall through the other physical object.
An example, If you set the collision multiplier below 1.0 the object will hit it then fall throw, It also breaks with other settings as well.
I think this might be a situated with possibly my graphics, but this is a concern I'd like addressed before i buy such amazing software.

you are right, the PhysicalResponse action is not true physics. But works in many situations like make an actor walk over a platform, for example.
BTW, there is something wrong in your movie. I have tested the tutorial here and I can see the bouncing balls.

OK tonight I'll re-install game editor
and record 2 tutorials, the bouncing balls and the hit wall collisions from begining to end
I'll show you what happens on my end, I don't know why this is happening, but this would most likely be only a rare issue with some users.

Well a complete re-installing didn't fix anything.

Here's 2 videos of 2 physical reaction tutorials, in full length and uncut.

Is the game editor still being worked on IE are there any newer versions coming out?

What I can see is the tutorial system isn't working in your machine.
Try load some games in the demo page and let us know if work.

The tutorial system works, It just forgets to close all the popup windows, so it stuffed up twice, In the video I got it right the 3rd try.

The issue is NOT the tutorials but how it works physical reactions
