What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

Island Settings

Summary

Since today’s update, my island is completely unplayable because players are joining teams 4 and 5, even though I only have 2 teams in my island settings.

Steps to Reproduce

Matchmake into my island (0678-0014-4695)

Expected Result

Players should join either team 1 or 2.

Observed Result

Players join teams 4 and 5, which don’t even exist and therefore spawn in the air because there aren’t any player spawner devices assigned to those teams.

Update:
The issue is apparently Team Rotation.
This setting is broken, and it will create new teams each round instead of rotating players.

I just submitted an update disabling this setting and then I have to confirm, but this is most likely the issue.

I remember using team rotation in a project 1 year ago on UEFN. It was totally broken and I stopped using it.

I recommend you create a verse code that does it. Every day that goes by I try to use less devices and more of my own code.

I had custom team select in my map but disabled it due to the teleporter bug, and left team rotation enabled.

Just found out we had the same issue today… Typical Fortnite Creative update

How is this bug now?

I have the same issue when enabling the Team Rotation in the island settings.

There is no problem when playing editor, but when playing through playtest, players sometimes switch to a new team (TEAM 3). I only have 2 teams.

Not fixed yet.
We made custom team selectors so we didn’t have to worry about this issue again, but any mode with team rotation is affected.
