End Game Device - not working at all

Summary

I have a simple set up with a trigger that triggers the end game device, when I walk onto the trigger the game ends BUT the UI within the end-game device does NOT show. This glitch/issue/bug has been recreated twice.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open blank template island
  2. Place end_game_device onto island and configure Custom Victory Callout and Custom Defeat Callout

  7. Launch the session, walk onto trigger

Expected Result

UI for end_game_device shows and game ends

Observed Result

UI for end_game_device does NOT show, and screen glitches where I think it should be shown, then game ends

I ran a test as well and wanted to share my findings
The end game device does work (as per my vod test below)
but it seems to be that the animation does not play.

Still does not seem to be working (2/15/2025). Has anyone come up with a work around?

FORT-861120 has been created and its status is ‘Unconfirmed’. This is now in a queue to be reproduced and confirmed.

@JonathanCordova, I have a response from one of our team members. Could you and @CamperJohn try it and let us know if it still happens?

The User has to set the “Game Winner Display Time” (located in the Island Settings device under “Post Game”) to a value above “0.0”, which is the default. The End Game device’s Victory/Defeat callouts are displayed as expected when changing the default value.

Yes, this seems to have worked. Thanks for the suggestion. I will make YouTube tutorial of this process just in case others might need the information. I will post a link here once uploaded. Thanks again.
