  2. Launch a session and start the game.
  3. Adjust your graphics settings up or down (Low,Med,High,Epic).
  4. The fog will now be gone until a new round is started.

Expected Result

Additional Notes

This has been a long standing issue even since early creative days with the Day Sequence device and lighting, where adjusting your graphical settings would break those, and now its impacting the Exponential Height Fog.
