Additional Notes

This has happened to me twice with the timer device, specifically changing it duration. Both times I had a session launched with someone in them. I can provide log files if required

This happens to me too, mainly when changing the settings of old devices before the latest UEFN update.

4

This happens to me with the timer device since the 41.00 update. About 50% of the time, changing the timer duration will crash UEFN immediately. I have a game session open when this is happening

Same issue here, changing the timer or even clicking on the timer device caused me to crash 4 times a few days ago, will be avoiding using timer device until fixed! (you might be able to select it from the explorer top right as opposed to clicking on it in game)

Same here, i noticed that the RAM usage of the system starts to get gobbled up as well and can crash the entire OS.

Same issue. I have sent tenths, if not hundreds, of crash reports to Epic.
I have noticed there is a high chance of not crashing if you place the timer while the UEFN session is not loaded in Fortnite.

This is kind of urgent as there is no direct replacement in verse for this.
