Guard Device Health Settings Seem Broken

General Issues and Bug Reporting

Summary

I have Guard Spawners in a map I’m testing out. I’ve set the guard to have Starting/Max Health of 1hp. But, as I’m testing, I’m noticing they are 1hp to begin with but when they respawn they become 100hp (default value of health).

EDIT: I’ve also tried updating the guards HP through Verse on spawn event but this same issue still happens.

EDIT 2: Figured out now that this issue happens only when the guard eliminates a player, then all existing guards are given 100hp - but when those guards are eliminated and respawn they come back with 1hp.

EDIT 3: Finally figured out the ROOT Cause properly now. It’s when a player respawns that the guards health resets to default.

The HP of the Guards should remain consistent to what I put in the device settings.

After the latest update, I’ve also noticed that guards and NPCs sometimes spawn with their default health (100 HP), and if a shield is set, it isn’t assigned.
