Awarding XP Problem

Summary

We found out on Monday that people stopped getting XP on our map, even though XP was fully calibrated and we hadn’t updated the map for one week. The map was still supposed to award XP.
When we joined with a full team (none of our players had reached the XP cap for the weekend), no one received any XP on our map. At first, we thought it was just a one time bug, but when we checked again on Wednesday, it was still happening. So we updated our map, and after XP calibration, it started working again.

Today we found out that XP is not working again, even though it is calibrated. We will push another update today to try to fix it.
Is there anything we can do about this bug?

Additional Notes

We’ve seen this problem on other top maps as well, but they update constantly. When XP recalibrates after an update, this bug doesn’t appear for a few hours or days. We’re not sure how long XP keeps working properly after updating

Hi @Jimbohalo10 Thank you for answering. The problem isn’t in calibration itself, because the map is calibrated and it’s worked fine, but after a few hours/days, XP is not working again. Sending screenshot below confirming XP is calibrated. We just pushed an update to see if it helps us.

After sending an update, XP is starting to be awarded again. After it breaks again, I will share results again here to confirm my thesis.

@Jimbohalo10 Around 7 PM EST XP broke again, even if analitcs saying
”**Calibration Successful. XP Rewards active.”

It looks like XP might be breaking every day around 7 PM EST. With the new season coming, is there anything we can do about this? If not, we will have to update our map every day at 7 PM EST, which will be very difficult to manage
@Flak If you could look into this as well, we would be very grateful.
