My game keeps crashing everytime I hit play. Me and my friends share a github repository and they are all able to press play and use the game. I was able to too till about 4 days ago.

This is the stack trace.

There’s a bug in how the PlayfabGSDK initializes in PlayFabGSDK.cpp and FGSDKInternal is accessed without being constructed first. As a workaround you can try running in Shipping mode or make sure that you only run ReadyForPlayers on a Dedicated Server in your GameInstance

#if UE_SERVER
UGSDKUtils::ReadyForPlayers();
#endif
