Omg i was hoping i could finally publish my race map, however the race manager still looks broken to me. I hope i’m doing things wrong!! It has been month’s now.
What’s the bug?
No this still is bugged. I find the rings will change colors, but outside of that you need to handle everything else with Verse until the device is fixed.
@sebas Thank you for your report! We would like to look into this further, would you be able to submit a bug report using the form available here? Fortnite Creative

If you don’t care about displaying what position the player is in then you won’t need to write any Verse. If you do then it is not so bad, this is how I do it for one of my racing maps.
To get the game mode to function as a race without the race manager setup the map like this:
Make sure you at least have the race manager on the level and setup correctly.
Have a score manager device that listens for the completed event for each race checkpoint.
Setup score board HUD, also set game win condition to Score.
Set win condition to score, set win score to (NumCheckPoints * Laps)
This will however end the race as soon as someone finishes the race, if you want to give other players a chance to finish then you will need to use a round timer and get the player away from the rings so they can’t keep racking up points by going over the lap count.
You could write a little bit of Verse that just keeps track of player laps, then uses an End Game device to end the race say after player 3, 4 or 5 finishes the race whatever you want.
Edit: You will need to add some points to the final score otherwise everyone who finishes the race will tie. For example add (NumRacers - Pos) score to the player when they finish this way the better you place the more bonus points you get while preventing anyone from getting the same score and also preserving the position they finished.
Can you expand upon this further? I’ve been trying to figure this out for awhile. I’m creating a race, but it’s on foot. Currently setup as a FFA. I want all players to finish before the round ends with points awarded for what place they came in.
