### Summary

Since this patch with one of my maps has huge issues with missing landscape or missing landscape collisions.  
This completely breaks the game or player movement and is only visible in public codes.

Private codes and testing sessions are mostly unaffected, also it sometimes happens in testing as well that the landscape is missing

### Please select what you are reporting on:

Unreal Editor for Fortnite

### What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

Assets

### Steps to Reproduce

1. Memory calculation
2. Publish build in the creator portal
3. Map goes live

### Expected Result

Landscape is visible and has a collision

### Observed Result

Landscape sometimes is invisible, andthe player is floating in the air, or the landscape is visible but has no correct collision and player seems to bug / can not move

### Platform(s)

Tested and occured on both PC and cloud gaming mobile, Probably all platforms

### Island Code

0510-0384-5646

### Video

### Additional Notes

Big problem is this it did not occur in session testing as well as private code. This only happened in a public live version of the game.

This issue happened 2 times in a row. 1 Time the landscape was completly invisible, the other time as shown in the video.

Only making a completly new build in UEFN, recalculating memory and publishing again helped the issue. This is very critical as you can not really know if a build works completly until it goes live. If it happens while live players instantly leave (Which is bad :D)

Update: This still happens and can also happen in live edit after pressing memory calculations.

What usually happens is the map looks fine. After I press memory calculations the map loads for the memory calculation and suddenly the whole landscape is removed + memory calc is way lower due to missing landscape

Here is how it looks when in live edit session

Seems to also be happening on live islands sometimes on certain platforms.

For example the current live version had no issues on PC but after a fortnite update suddenly on PS5 the landscape does not load

Clearly visible in the playtime graph after the fn update

Did you try “Build Landscape“? This should fix collisions and other landscape issues
