as a creator, I would expect backend service issues unrelated to my island to not negatively affect my stats.

Summary

As a Creator, I’m unsure how it affects my stats when there is lag or backend issues after people choose to play my map.
Lately, after clicking Play (in the live FN client) on a Creative island, it can take a significant amount of time to “waiting for download” and then be at “downloading” for quite awhile too.
In these cases, it’s VERY likely that anyone who has a short attention span either tries a different map, or quits the client entirely.

What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

Matchmaking

Steps to Reproduce

Select/play a variety of maps, I don’t know how relevant the download size is, and click play

Expected Result

the player would fairly quickly matchmake / download with feedback.

Observed Result

the player can frequently have multi-minute waits with no feedback before the map actually begins downloading.

Platform(s)

xbox. pc for sure.

Island Code

4970-2691-2291

Additional Notes

There’s also the “queue time” graph. Is that related to before you load in, or is that strictly matchmaking post-load?
TLDR: as a creator, I would expect backend service issues unrelated to my island to not negatively affect my stats.
