### Summary

It’s unknown if this glitch was intentional or misinterpreted. However, before distancing loading was applied to all props and islands, sequencers used to sustain function at all distances without cutting out or stopping completely.

Overall, the glitch affects the sequencer device and how distance from the start of the sequencer will impact how it renders in.

### Please select what you are reporting on:

Creative

### What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

Devices

### Steps to Reproduce

1. Enter into a creative island in edit-mode. (Creative 1.0)

2. Add the sequencer device to your island and extend the length beyond 80 floors or to the maximum of 100 floors.

3. Now, test how the sequencer renders in and out from the start to the end. (Note: the sequencer may not render out at all attempts. Please try until the device box disappears and renders out.)

4. A bonus step, test with devices or music tiles to see if this affects functionality of specific groups. The video below shows how it affects music tiles.

### Expected Result

The sequencer SHOULD play completely without a sudden pause or the device completely disappearing from sight, affecting functions in the sequencer such as music tiles and other devices.

### Observed Result

The actual result will show that the sequencer will eventually render out at a specific distance away from the start. My estimation is around 80-100 full floor tiles.

### Platform(s)

PC, CONSOLE (PS,XBOX)
