Additional Notes

This issue affects the editor but not in Live Edit in the client game

It happens to me too: setting a timer, duplicating it, or touching it or anything else related to that timer causes the uefn to crash.

The editor also crashes for me everytime I edit the time in the timer device during live edit.

Happening to me too. After the freeze and UEFN reboot, it seems to also bug that particular timer device’s capability of showing custom widget bp huds. For me, the bugged timer device will briefly show the incorrect Default wbp with “Available in 3…” white text for a few seconds before changing to the correct wbp and timer numbers

FORT-1123445 is ‘Closed’ as ‘Fixed’. The issue will be addressed in 41.30.

I know this issue is “fixed” but the editor froze when just placing the timer device. Not even duplicating/editing it.

Hi there, could you let us know if this is still happening after 41.30 is released late next week?
