### Summary

We are experiencing consistent server crashing in our map Forever Zone Wars. Players freeze in place and get kicked back to lobby.  
This happens within the first 2 rounds of gameplay. Each round is maximum of 10 minutes. This never happens at the same time.  
We do not have any verse reports causing this in creator portal.

### Please select what you are reporting on:

Creative

### What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

Assets

### Steps to Reproduce

Play Forever Zone Wars: 5473-5965-0108  
This always happens within the first 2 rounds, but there are no clues as to why this is happening. We are unable to reproduce at the given moment.

### Expected Result

Server not to crash

### Observed Result

Lobby freezes, server crashes, all players are booted from the game

### Platform(s)

PC, but probably happens on all platforms as it’s a server issue

After waiting patiently in UEFN, we were able to recreate. It seems to be happening due to score managers being triggered.

This is the code we are using to grant score for all players every 30 seconds. 99% of the time it works, but every now and then it doesn’t:

```auto
StartTimerForPoints()<suspends>:void=
        loop:
            Sleep(POINTS_TIMER_DELAY)
            if(GivePointsForTime = true):
                for(CP:PlayersMap):
                    Print("Add 5 points for this player: {CP.UniqueID}")
                    if(CP.CurrentClass = IN_GAME_CLASS):
                        TimeScoreManagerDevice.Activate(CP.MyAgentObj)
                    Sleep(0.1)

            else:
                break

```
