If I send maps now with that error, will the version be accepted even if it is not my problem? Or do we wait for a patch for emmoria and shipping new versions?

The warning message seems to appear with any other warning in tandem, meaning, if the project has no warnings, it tends to go away. If the project has 10 warnings, it will reproduce itself also 10 times. :man_shrugging: I haven’t tried publishing, but I could partially get rid of the issue by fixing all existing warnings.

This warning seems to be happening even with simple edits that have nothing to do with any experimental features.

For example, I duplicated a player spawner device (changed no settings) and was immediately given an experimental settings warning for the new entity.

Also, changing property settings within an entity is enough to cause this issue, so I’m currently unable to make any changes without filling my Message Log with these errors.

I can confirm, this is happening to me as well. Just placed a prefab, saved and the same thing poped up.

Same problem. Any time I duplicate/insert prop, a new error is added. I checked the .uefnproject file - “bIsExperimentalContentAllowed”: False and still no improvement.

Same problem here, has anyone found a solution?
