Issue with players joining the same session

Summary

I have my Rapid 2v2v2 Zero Build map and ever since the new season update players have been experiencing issues with leaving the joining the same session. When a player returns to the session they will not be able to respawn and will stay in spectate mode. Also, if somehow the player was able to spawn and won the custom round, the fortnite session will end and the players in the lobby will stay in spectate mode and that player will be the only one in not in spectate mode. Last man standing is turned OFF.

Hi, we are having the same issue in all our maps (FInest Realistics)

This is critical

Same here, seems to be an issue if you have your game setup in a way where you ahve only 1 respawn, and then you leave and rejoin it thinks you are out of respawns and you are stuck spectating. If you force a respawn the player is not able to interact with creative devices like buttons, teleporters and volumes
so yeah code red!

On my map two players are in the same team, if someone join the island. Then the game ends and you go back to lobby. Befor the update we did not have this problem and todays small update did not chance anything. Epic please fix this problem soon!!

@Bug Reporter! Does this mean- epic found the mistake and we will get an update and everything is working again?

@MainVoxHD, yes, this is scheduled for a fix. I’ll be updating the known issues thread and the bug reporter in this thread will also update.

Hi @Flak any update on this issue?

Thank you @Flak . I just tried it and it is still not working. Hope for the update today. I play this map for example. 6711-2187-4910 Thank you

I’m currently having the same problem, I hope it gets fixed soon :frowning:

I am sorry, but the match does not start after the update. We get kickt off, because we are in the same team. If we join the Island in the same moment it works. If some else join the island he will get in one theam, so you play 2:1 instead of 1:1:1.

Hope this information helps. @Flak
