After v41.00 release, Tracker Device isn’t “auto-loading” in public session even if the setting is checked. This issue is ONLY happening in public version, not in private island code nor edit session.
It’s extremely bad for maps using auto-load for their players which is now causing loss of data. For example, Impostor (4838-7147-7903) got loss of tracker’s data due to this issue.
I added images below: 1st is in public / 2nd is in private island code.

Tracker should be loaded automatically when joining a public version.
Observed Result
Tracker isn’t loaded automatically, leading to loss of data in maps.
@Flak This is a pretty big issue for some creators that use ‘auto-loading’ with the tracker device. Think we can add this to the priority list for bug issues?
Okay so, now if I join the Private Island Code again… It’s back to 0 and they don’t progress at all (what-). I spent a few minutes on the map and “Minutes” isn’t increasing. (In both Private Island Code and Published)
Private Island Code of current’s published version:
Also, I try making a published island with just a couple Tracker with Auto-Load/Auto-Save (One have a Target Value, one doesn’t) and they work extremely fine.
I’m really confused on why the issue isn’t happening here, and not on the other map while it worked extremely fine until now.
It has been fixed on Impostor!! I’m now playing in Public and data has been completely recovered and no longer lost!! Hopefully other affected maps (if any) are also recovered!
