Summary
While testing a private code using the Persona component on NPCs we found a condition that causes all players in the session to be returned to the lobby.
We were testing a condition that initiated a large number of NPC conversations. At some point when one of the NPCs is initialized, everyone in the game is returned to the lobby. There is no Verse runtime error associated with this behavior. On being returned to the lobby the player is shown a message that says: “Network Connection Lost”. This was reproduced in a private code, game logs were shared privately.
