Summary
I turn on the option in-game for it to do random loadout (Not random skin). This option SHOULD make it so it will randomly select one of my saved loadouts. This way it loads a character and EVERYTHING I want that character to have, such as emotes, pickaxes, music, vehicles, etc. It should do the entire saved loadout!
However, what happens is that it will not load the skin for that loadout! It will load everything else from one of my saved random loadouts. So for example I have Magneto as a saved loadout with his emotes, sprays, music, and other things saved as a loadout for magneto. It will show me magneto in the lobby, but when I get to the match the skin is whatever was the last loadout I had before I turned on the random option.
I was very specific. So let me be clear. Let’s say I have my Mandalorian loadout loaded. I then turn random loadout ON, when it was off. It will correctly show me a new random loadout from my saved loadouts such as the magneto one I mentioned above. However when I play the match it will show my Mandalorian SKIN! and the magneto emotes, vehicles, music. So basically random loadout will randomize your saved loadouts for everything but the SKIN!!!
It’s been months and you have not fixed it. I spent hours making loadouts for my themed characters. For example I have a loadout for each of my TMNT characters so it loads not only the character but the proper emotes, sprays, etc for that character! I have it set up for every marvel character I have, every Star Wars. You choose a loadout because you want everything MEANT for that character.
If you cannot even get your locker room to work correctly. Especially when this is a bug that was reported MONTHS ago and you have had multiple updates and still have not fixed it. Then how can I have any confidence you have addressed other issues. You also ruin my game play. Because of this bug, I cannot play and have it randomly cycle my favorite loadouts. I have to manually go and pick between matches and I like it being Random!
This bug is the reason I ENDED my fortnite monthly pass. I stopped playing Fortnite completely because you are ignoring this issue. My nephew event stop playing and deleted it from his PS5 to make space for other games. Well now you have a new season, so after being away for months, we thought we would try it again. My nephew likes one of your battlepass characters. So we both decided to return, yet you still have not fixed this BASIC ISSUE with your locker. Who do you have in charge of the team that is supposed to handle the locker? They seem to love to make the UI worse and counter-intuitive forcing us to take more steps to get through the locker process and menus. But they never seem, to fix their bugs!!!. The thing is that the random loadouts USED TO WORK! But someone in your dev team BROKE it when an update happened!!!
I reported this multiple times months ago through your reddit bug reporting forums. Your in game bug reporting is useless. It took me a while to find this forum, because most bug reporting points to the reddit ones

Steps to Reproduce
Just go to locker select a loadout then turn on the random LOADOUT and start a match. You will see the random loadout selected in the lobby, but when you join the match it will have the skin of the loadout selected before you turned on Random. Its very obvious that in the lobby it shows the skin that was part of the random loadout it was cycling, but in the match THAT skin is not shown and it is the previously selected skin from the loadout you had before turning random ON.
Expected Result
It will show the wrong SKIN
Observed Result
IT WILL SHOW THE WRONG SKIN
