Limit on Vehicles

Summary

In UEFN, there is a limit on the number of vehicles you can have. It took me close to a month to figure this out as my map was running into an issue where you would be sent back to the lobby with the “You have lost connection” screen. The output log wouldn’t have any info on this either.

I thought I would create a forum in case anyone else runs into this issue. The ABSOULTE limit of vehicles in your map is capped at 100. Any number over that, the game breaks and you cannot load your map.

I haven’t been able to find a work around for this yet, but if anyone has some ideas, let me know!

So glad you found it, you had trouble for so long on this one…
When the cap hits, not being able to load the map instead of vehicle spawning failures is a fairly critical issue.

I forgot to ask, is this a limit of 100 vehicle spawners, or 100 simultaneously enabled vehicle spawners ?

that was actually it!

I don’t know why I didn’t think of that in the first place, but that seemed to be a perfect work around for the game!

I put a total of 105 vehicles in my game and I was able to load in perfectly!

i have 400 spawners and it doesn’t crash, but it lags at a certain point that I’m trying to figure out for like a second. After coming back to same point, it doesn’t lag no more. I guess because it loaded it up in memory. So, I’m
here trying to figure out why.

do you have them all enabled at the same time? I am starting to run into the issue again at around 117 spawners…

I have 400 spawners spread out between 6 zones, all triggered when entering each mutator zone. Once triggered, they stay triggered. So at first no, but by the end of race, they are all firing. What is your issue?

This is the game https://www.fortnite.com/@nldevelopment

im just setting a game up thatll have upwards of 100 spawners is this still an issue? should i enable and disable when needed ?

Update 1:

I also have the lag/high ping

It never kicks me to the lobby but its deffo not correct

Ive disabled them all and it has no effect

Ive disabled shadow and turned on never distance cull and currently testing. I have also spaced the spawners around the play area instead of in 1 spot

Update 2:

Its something with loading the spawners into the player memory/game space idk the correct term but it lags ect then when i drive around to where each set of spawners is it then is loaded and doesnt lag/ping is normal again.

As a work around im going to try and start everyone where the cars are then im hoping itll be loaded into the player memory and shouldnt be a issue
