Hud Message Devices Not Showing Messagf

Summary

This is a bug in UEFN. So I am trying to use HUD Message Devices and the messages are not being displayed. So basically, at the start if my game the first 3 HUD Message Devices work perfectly but then after that ( so 4 devices and onwards ) the device just does not display anything. You can still hear the sound as if a message is being displayed , so it is not like the HUD Message Device is disabled. Has anyone got any ideas?

Are they showing at the same time ? If so change the layer number and read the layer and priority info hint when you hover over it with your mouse it’ll explain it more

Yes. I am using HUD Message Device a lot lately (through Verse and also without it) and so far I never had an issue that it would not show something when it should. Every time when something like that happened the reason was that it was just using the same layer as some other message, so it was an easy fix.

if your using custom widget make sure everything in the widget anchor is the same that can also make things not show

Having same problem, not even using custom widgets but hud messages don’t show through events or verse
