Potential session length bug in analytics

Summary

This may just be a Fortnite.gg issue, but as their data is coming from Epic, it may be in our analytics as well, and there’s no way to diagnose it and it would be easy for everyone to miss it:

Fortnite.gg reports single session lengths as two or three. The player number will drop from 1 to 0 then immediately back up, sometimes multiple times during a single session. I know because I can see that I’m the only one one during that entire time, and it reports a single session as having gaps in it.

(I don’t know if that reflects in the aggregate as 3 sessions at the end of the day, fortunately I have too many players to ever be able to see that).
