Barriers that have a player added to the ignore list now start to show the barrier material to the player.

Summary

As it states when a player is added to the ignore list at random times the material will show and stay in the visible state even though the player has been added to the ignore list. The barrier acts as normal so the player can walk through the material barrier its just that the material is showing now and it shouldnt

I have a similar problem.

I have a bunch of barrier devices and there can only be 1 that is invisible to the player when they are ignored. It appears to be that the other ones are showing still but there is not any collision

I’m experiencing the opposite bug since v36.00: the material for my Barrier device is not rendering.

confirming this with an older map the barrier is now visible when it was not before.

that said, if memory serves me (rare) i was using a bit of a jank work around by just removing the material i think? maybe this is related? defaulted?

I agree. I have the same problem.
