I was outside, and it was sunny.... but I still cant see that voiding the test Optical slaves don't normally work well in sun, becaue sun effect what the slave cell can see. If the sun is brighter then the slave cell its not going to see it and it will not trigger the flash. I AM SHOM

Indoors, in complete shade - S1 mode now works - and fires optically. If the Godox is anywhere near a light source (even in shade, close to light) it doesn't fire. My Yongnuo speedlites fire optically even when in direct sunlight fwiw, for my test above the 360 was sitting directly under (less than a meter) a large, two bulb fluorescent light fixture.

It could be just a matter of angling the speedlite to create the shade for the sensor. Then making sure the trigger strobe was in direct line or site.
