Steps to Reproduce

create a level sequence with a cinematic camera floating around. Add a dialog device that shows up the same time as the sequence is played. Connect the stop() function of the cinematic sequencer with “on responding any button” of the dialog to stop the cinematic whenever you want. Now play and stop the cinematic a few times.
At least after playing the cinematic 3-4 times it gets stuck

Expected Result

The sequence should stop and the player should be assigned their original camera.

Observed Result

The player stays in the cinematic camera forever makes the game unplayable after watching a cinematic for 30% of the players

@AscendantForge, could we get your island code or project ID, please? Thank you!

Hey there! Thank you for taking care!
Seems like it’s a common thing that devices do break/corrupt after uefn updates.
Someone told me to delete the cinematic sequence devices and replace it with fresh ones from the content browers.
And seems like it helped. I am not able to reproduce the bug anymore at the moment.
