Summary

After ending a round of game using island settings or end game devices, the game displays two end screens, one for the round end and one for the game end, even if the game has more rounds to play. The end screen then stays stuck on the player’s screen as the next round starts, preventing gameplay.

I tried setting island settings to : round to end on 1 elimination, round win condition is eliminations, and 99 rounds - still after one round, the losing player gets a “You placed 2” overlay stuck on screen. The island I’m working on is still being published but will share the island code once it is pushed through. For now another one of our islands has the bug too and that’s the one that was shared in the code above.

Design a 1v1 Box Fight in Fortnite Creative | Fortnite Creative Documentation | Epic Developer Community if you follow this epic tutorial for a 1v1 box fight map, the settings here cause the bug. Player who lost gets a “You placed #2” overlay that persists through the following round of play, preventing play.

Turns out bug was caused by having ‘spawn limit’ set to 1. Spawn limit set to 1 clashed with other round end settings and caused the player who passed their spawn limit to spawn next round but have an overlay stuck over their screen preventing play.
