Summary

Basically the camera orbit device now makes the player invisible upon being added to a player even if “Hide Player Character” is unchecked. I also tested with a brand new device just to make sure it wasnt anything I was doing incorrectly, and I believe this happens because it is now under @experimental in fortnite.digest . Causing some functions of my map to stop working because of this

Hi, Same issue here, I made a reddit post as well - https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteCreative/comments/1foo63k/orbit_camera_device_looses_the_function_hide/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

In the editor, it works the way it should, and hides the player character, but when I published a private / Public version of my map, its bugged.

In the pregame lobby, my character is invisible, the moment game starts, my character pops back into the scene.
