I was just building in UEFN and the last 1000 objects that i paced got deleted in about 5 seconds revision control wasunfortunately off. Why did this happen, and is the a way to restore the lost files?

Happened to me too. Happened to several people in the past hour on Discord. I found out they were being deleted when the map was undergoing a Memory check and I was making coffee and not touching the keyboard. I caught some screen caps of it. Had maybe 30-50 items delete on their own.

Possibly duplicated: Item Placers Get deleted randomly

I have a bunch of assets being deleted/changed like that. How can we solve it?

After some advice from another UEFN developer, I turned off Live Edit in UEFN. The behavior of items being randomly deleted has stopped so far!! Fingers crossed this is a good temporary fix until the main cause is patched.

12

yea I hoped on one of my projects and HALF OF EVERY THING was GONE. I have no clue what happened and 60+ hours of work was goneā€¦

@EncryptedCat Iā€™m sorry but I disabled Live Edit and even with Fortnite closed I got the error. Thatā€™s becoming very, VERY frustrating to use UEFN back 3 or 4 weeks.

Is it possible that you were building without having a valid support underneath, such as a landscape? I once tried to build ā€œin thin airā€, and got quite far with the project, until props started to despawn, seemingly at random. Back then, I read somewhere that the ā€œsupport-is-validā€ checking can be disabled somehow, but I do not recall the setting (I just build directly on the landscape now).

Is it possible to turn it off?

16

Uncheck Live-Edit in the little dropdown menu next to Launch Session (Before you start a session).

This use to happen to me also when pushing changes. The way It got fixed for me was that I use to start the project in 1.0 and then transfer it to UEFN, now I just start the project in UEFN and I donā€™t have the problem anymore
