We’re investigating an issue affecting UEFN islands that may prevent some islands from starting properly. We appreciate your patience as we work toward a fix. Stay tuned for updates.

Bonjour,  
Merci pour votre travail.

Depuis la mise à jour du **24 juin 2025** , **toutes mes îles** sont affectées par un bug critique : **la partie ne démarre pas automatiquement après le compte à rebours**. Peu importe l’île (même les nouvelles ou les simples sans scripts), le timer arrive à zéro, mais le jeu reste bloqué en phase de pré-lancement.

Je suis créateur sous le code **DANXOMEVI** et ce bug a un impact direct : **je perds de nombreux joueurs** , qui quittent la map pensant qu’elle ne fonctionne pas.

J’ai testé plusieurs scénarios :

- Timer court et long
- Déclencheurs manuels ou automatiques
- Suppression des scripts Verse
- Îles vides avec juste un spawner  
Le problème est **systématique**.

The issue preventing some UEFN islands from starting has been fixed, and islands will now start properly.
