Summary
Our island update cannot be published. Verse validation fails with an “Ambiguous identifier” error in a file under sys/published. The reported line numbers match the version that is currently live, not the new one. In the new version the identifier was renamed, and Verse builds with 0 errors in UEFN. The live version passed validation when it was published. Every new upload fails the same way.

Steps to Reproduce
- The live version of the island has a class field named “Boutons” in Code/chores/litter_minigame_ui.verse. The file has “using { //Art/UI }”, and the project also has an asset folder named Art/UI/Boutons. This version passed validation and is live.
- In the new version, rename the field to “BoutonsGrumeaux”, so no “Boutons” identifier remains. Verse builds with 0 errors (UEFN 43.00, CL-59596594).
- Upload the new version to the Creator Portal and create a release from it.
Expected Result
Verse validation passes. The new version no longer contains the identifier and builds without errors, and the live version already passed validation when it was published.
Observed Result
Validation fails with: “Ambiguous identifier; could be (/maloufs@fortnite.com/Projet_7DaysCat_Sitting/Code/chores/litter_minigame:)Boutons or (/maloufs@fortnite.com/Projet_7DaysCat_Sitting/Art/UI:)Boutons” in “…/sys/published/Content/Code/chores/litter_minigame_ui.verse”, lines 204, 240, 252, 269. Those lines contain “Boutons” only in the live version of the file. In the new file the field is renamed and the lines are shifted. We cannot publish any update.

Additional Notes
We also renamed the asset folder Art/UI/Boutons to Art/UI/BoutonsSurvol in the new version, so no “Boutons” identifier or module exists anymore. The exact same error still appears, with the live version’s line numbers, so validation seems to compile the live version as it was published.
This looks like the known issue FORT-1011852 (other creators get “Ambiguous identifier” errors from sys/published even after fixing or removing the file).
This blocks every update: we cannot add any new content to the island. It is a new map that has just launched, and without regular updates it can quickly lose its players. Rolling back to an older release is not an option for us.
