Summary
Physics Tree objects and Physics Boulder objects, and their bases, do NOT spawn in any round other than round 1. This behavior was first noticed in 28.xx, continued through 29.xx, was fixed during 32.xx, and returned during 33.00-33.10. No physics trees/boulders appear in round 2 nor round 3 (again).

Steps to Reproduce
Physics Tree settings:
Indestructible Tree = false
Indestructible Stump = false
Leave Stump = true
Indestructible Stump = true
Destroy when disabled = false
Tree respawns on timer = true, time = 60.0 (have tried with & without this set, doesn’t fix it)
Spawn when enabled = true
Release Log = tied to an On Interact event
Place multiple Physics Trees with above settings.
Physics Boulder settings:
Indestructible Balanced Boulder = false
Indestructible Rolling Boulder = false
Leave Base = true
Indestructible Base = true
Destroy when Disabled = false
Balanced Boulder Respawns on Timer = true; Time = 180.0 (but I’ve tried both settings, and neither fixes it)
Base Required for Timed Respawn = true
Spawn when Enabled = true
Release Rolling Boulder is tied to an On Interact event.
Place multiple Physics Boulders with above settings.
Set Island Settings:
32 players, 2 Teams, Split Evenly, 3 Rounds
Auto Start = 30 seconds, 5 second countdown, Revert to Default Class at End of Round
Set a short round time limit to speed up testing.
Build Mode = Traps Only
Building Can destroy Environment = false
Environment damage = off
Pickaxe Destruction = none
Enable fire = true
Expected Result
Expected results is that the Physics Trees, their bases, the Physics Boulders, their bases, all appear in Rounds 1, 2, and 3. The objects should be usable according to their settings.
Observed Result
Observed result is that in Rounds 2 and 3, none of the Physics Trees/Boulders/bases appear at all. Not at round start, not after timers, nothing.
In rounds 2 and 3, none of the above objects appear, or have otherwise spawned. It’s empty and passable where they all should be. (10 of each on the map)
Platform(s)
Verified on Xbox Series X, PC, Xbox One X, and Android.
