James: I think we currently recreate the capsule body when you change dimensions, should just change the shape instead.

DisableCollision is reset if constrained Capsule Component height is changed at runtime
User Description:
The setup consists of two capsule colliders that are constrained together, they overlap at the tips but the joint is set so that they ignore collision between them.
Suddenly they collide with each other and the limits are no longer in effect, they can travel as far away from each other as they want. The joint hasn't broken from what I can tell since OnConstraintBroken is never triggered, the red and blue lines that should connect to the joint are still there but they no longer connect to the joint. Messing around with constraint settings, motors and different limits etc also gives some behavior.
1. Download, unzip, and open the ConstraintError.7z test project that is attached
2. Open Test map
3. PIE
4. Press E to change one of the capsule's Half-Heights
Results: The capsules will start colliding and fly apart
Expected: For the constraint to keep the value of DisableCollision as Enabled if the capsule size changes
