Additional Notes

This glitch can give players an unfair advantage and disrupt the integrity of the game’s kill tracking and leaderboard.

I can confirm that this is affecting all maps.

Is anyone else seeing this?

Hi, I tested it on the Pit geerzy map, and I can confirm this bug (only works by ending the game with the 3 short lines, not with the return to the lobby button)

Yes, the kills will be shown to everyone, as I have received many reports from players who grind kills and see others doubling their kills without effort, which demotivates them

Thank you, we’ll take a look.

FORT-864685 has been created and its status is ‘Unconfirmed’. This is now in a queue to be reproduced and confirmed.

Thank you. I hope the duplicated kills are removed so the scoreboard accurately reflects the true results. Thanks again!

Hey Flak, confirming this is also happening in Go Goated too

It is not just the kills. In my map Fortune Finders, I tested and printed current score from the score manager. It turns out player who joins match may have non zero score even when they are supposed to have no score. Score manager can't be trusted

How is it saving with the save device or trackers or direct persistence ?

Just curious

The team is investigating here. Thanks everyone.

I do not use any trackers / save point device in this map. I believe it is either not clearing or awarding on its own.

ty i will check my maps

Hey @Flak
This is happening on my maps too!

Please let me know if there are any updates. This disrupts the gameplay, especially for maps with a smaller audience.

I hope this issue is fixed in tomorrow’s update and the duplicated kills are reverted
