  3. upload to play test
  4. edit track in some way, move it or change the style of the track
    5.save and upload to playtest
  5. play upload

the track should be where you moved or edited it

Observed Result

the edited track will duplicate in the playtest and both the previous position and the edited or changed position will show up

Platform(s)

windows

Additional Notes

when loading in the world. The player will fly for a sec then be eliminated and respawn in the car

if you press rebuild track it fixes the issue

I am experiencing the same issue. Been trying over and over again. Glad to find I’m not the only one

The status of FORT-740082 incident has been moved from ā€˜Unconfirmed’ to ā€˜Needs Triage’.

rebuild is not fixing the issue for me

the ā€œrebuild trackā€ button is VERY inconsistent with whether it fixes it or not. more often than not, it seems to not, unfortunately.

ps rebuild also does not fix it for me on multiple tracks

Same problem for me here, impossible to work on my map…
The ā€œRebuild trackā€ button does not solve the problem.

Same problem affecting my tracks and Rebuild Track does not fix the issue.

i have found a temporary solution!
if this was impairing anyone as badly as it was me, you can simply follow these steps:

  • when you’re done making your change to the track, hit save in the top left
  • rebuild track

SHOULD work! seems like saving then rebuilding deletes the duplicated track. enjoy building!

I am also having this issue, I have made minor tweaks to the track, so I can still race around it, but it is causing problems. I just cant seem to get rid of that old track!
I have tried the above advice to fix it, but no luck. I have also tried, saving, rebuilding, checking everything back in and restarting to try and fix it but still no luck.
Any other ideas?

huh, strange, sorry it didn’t work for you!
i can’t think of why this solution’d work for only me, as it is the same issue in whole we’re experiencing. i suppose only limited information can be shared throughout a forum like this, though. apologies!
i’d advise to just keep messing with saving and rebuilding and similar, until something gets rid of the track, as that’s what lead me to find what worked for me.

also - something notable. whenever i’m about to push something that ends up working, the push list that appears is a large list of only green, not checking scrolling down. not sure if that could be worth sharing, but hey, anything that may change something is useful.

after weeks of waiting , i thought i try it again with a NEW map. the bug still exists.
i Tried all sort of order of saving and rebuilding without luck
And makes Creative map making for rocket racing totally broken.
I’'m realy supprised it takes so long… and tis not a hot topic

Strangely enough, mine started behaving again. No rhyme or reason…but I got 1 track and its the way it looks in the editor. I cant think of anything I did differently, so to anyone else having this issue…uhh, (I cant believe I am about to answer a question with the definition of insanity) but:
Keep doing the same thing over and over and expect a different result!
Because, sometimes it actually works.

Can confirm and reproduce this issue v29.40

Also was able to use the fix described above to remove the duplicate track.
