It’s not me. No other team members either, at the moment.

Is this a bug?

And again, I have no clue what category to post this in. I am sorry!

This is interesting. I have 2 thoughts:

  1. Is it possible that the graph is showing your activity, but it’s showing the wrong times?
    A couple of these charts have had issues where we incorrectly change between utc time and local time and data gets shifted.

  2. Have you submitted the project for publishing?

If this is my own activity, then it must be delayed from 22.04. to 27.04. and 03.05… If that is possible, then yes! It could be my own activity.
The website also shows an error message too. I reported that yesterday here in the forum, but wasn`t sure if this is related.

I did upload several private island codes of this island. But I found several things I had to fix. Also have yet to find an option to delete older private islands.
And yes, I submitted the island for publishing. It got published on the 22.04…

Hope this is helpful.

I wouldn’t worry. It is likely because you submitted the island for publish and it was getting reviewed. Only team members, yourself, and reviewers can access the private island code.

I found the same thing happening quite frequently for me over the last couple of weeks.

I was able to contact one of the players and apparently they were somehow still playing the old version of the island (and I guess adding metrics to the private island code, rather than the current release).

It would seem that when they opened Fortnite, the island was still selected as their game mode from the last time they had played; the catch being that it was the old version of the island, as a new version had since been released.

Until they manually opened the game selection menu and re-selected the game, they were able to play in the previous released version of the island.

I haven’t had the chance to verify this myself yet - but it would explain the issue if that was actually the case.
