Black screen when exiting sessions

Summary

When your in a session and return to lobby you have a chance of getting a black screen instead of the fortnite lobby. Audio still players but everything is black.

Please select what you are reporting on:

Unreal Editor for Fortnite

What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

Stability

Steps to Reproduce

Be in a session and return to lobby. Its abit random so im unsure what causes it

Expected Result

It should show the fortnite lobby ui

Observed Result

It shows only a black screen and plays lobby audio

Platform(s)

pc

Additional Notes

The work around on pc is to launch session again then cancel as this updates the lobby ui to normal.

On Xbox you have to quit the game and reload fully

I asked on UEFN Discord incase its me as there are tons of ui related issues now with Epics main system but other people are seeing/having this too one person told me the workaround hence reporting it here.

I just wanna say that there are so many high end bugs with the main system its crazy. My friends ect have stopped playing br due to the lag in the game and the ui and its sad to see the game like this. Please fix all the main systems :slight_smile:

It happened often to me this week
