Body tracking with 2 right arms don't work

I have a problem with the second right arm. I have a right arm behind the character, I made another to have my hand in front of the skirt, with a trigger to make it appear. But when I activate body tracking, only the arm that goes in front of the skirt moves, the one behind the character is completely dead. As if I would only be entitled to one right arm. The two right arms are rigger and the shoulder, elbow and wrist have been assigned to the right place. And when I activate the body tracking, I deactivate the dragger.

First off, great looking character!

 

Yeah, the issue here seems to be the two right arms. Behaviors like Limb IK and body tracking are only looking for the FIRST instance of each tag. So if it sees right elbow, right shoulder, etc - it's going to ignore any others things tagged as those things that come after it.

 

The primary way people get around this is adding extra behaviors. So if you added an extra Body and Limb IK behavior to that second right arm group, it should theoretically work - although two body behaviors could run into some performance issues as even one can be pretty processor intensive.

May I ask if you have the two arms in a swap set?

it is only the upper arm that has a trigger to change the arm, I press the same trigger again to return to the lower arm (Default arm)

Thank you for the clarification. I must admit that I'm stumped. Maybe @oksamurai has some ideas.
