Recently I discovered a major bug that stopped all progress in my game, before it was working fine, but as of latest patch if I playtest my game there will be around 40 second delay before ESC button will work.
If I press ESC it will freeze the camera and the code that should be running doesn’t work, clicking M will fix the camera, but if I wait 40 seconds the code that should be working runs and ESC works so I can endgame.
It is a very strange bug, only on the UEFN Discord I’ve seen a few encounter ESC key not working and the camera freezing. If I disable both of my verse classes ESC will work.
I get 0 errors in my verse build, a few times when the code works in brackets in the print it says (Rolling Back)
If I completely disable the OnBegin Functions on both scripts I still can’t press ESC for 40 seconds, only lets me if both verse devices are disabled.

Additional Notes
I use to get an error of the same code that worked before fine for months, but I fixed it by moving a function, now the new bug stops me for 40 seconds exactly then the code runs fine.
I have no Sleep() that is 40 seconds long anyway, so I’m not sure what is causing it.
The timing seems to vary, around 1 min of nothing and then the code runs fine, sometimes without a (Rolling Back) in the print.
Also when it does work and I try close I get the runtime error but I cannot find where in the code it is referring to, and I checked all my Timer Devices, even completely disabling them still grants me this error.
Sometimes works instantly other times works in around 40 seconds - 60 seconds, it’s very strange not sure what to do, I’ve tried sleep() I’ve tried await, idk
If I migrate my project to a new project it works for a while then it breaks again, it is the most strange bug I’ve encountered, I assume if I build the game it will be fine but I constantly need to remigrate after testing cause it breaks.
I switched to using tags to reference the custom verse devices, it works first time every time but if I end game and click play again it will break and kick me out of the session every time, and once in lobby if I try to load up the uefn session it will say game found load and kick me out with a connection fail error #1, pls help idk what to do
I seemed to have fixed the issue, I tried to have 2 custom verse devices communicate with each other. (had all in one script before but apparently too much code made it so it will never launch)
Before I had no circular reference just a hard reference to one script that stopped working for some reason, tried it in array form didn’t work either. Then I used tags to reference the custom verse device but as a failable expression.
Then anytime I wanted to reference the custom verse device
`if(GPL := GameLoopDevice?):`
Now instead of not being able to click ESC my player will be frozen in place for around 40 - 60 seconds, I can only look around cannot use movement keys. During this there is connection issues it seems orange arrow down and red x where it shows ping. After the 40-60 seconds it unfreezes sometimes teleporting me to the real spawnpad then everything works fine.
(Making a private playtest same issue)
Nevermind if I end game and click play again it will freeze show 285 ping exactly then it will kick me back to the lobby with a network connection error
