Stat Creator UI Widget Does Not Show For Players Who Join In Progress

Accumulated points reset if a player earns them in both public and private versions of the game.

Here’s what happens: the player collects some points in the private version, then switches to the public version and earns more points. However, when they re-enter the game, all points are reset.

I joined with lvl 3 500/3000, when I rejoined it was lvl 1 100/1000. Persistence is on. So if stats creator doesn’t show lvl properly (it resets) so it means that u can’t use it to compare

Yes, that is how it works. Data for Private versions and Live version are not the same. You expect something that is not true by design. And yes, data for Private versions will not last, it is also happening in all of my maps and still in their Live versions it is working correctly and data are saved and load from the moment that player left the last session.

But there is one issue with it (I don’t know if it was fixed already or not), that you could be experiencing regarding resetting values from Stat Creator - I wrote about it a lot in this thread even with a workaround (kind of), that is so far working for me, so check it out:

By private I mean not play testing version. I was talking about public/live island: private match and public match
But the issue you described with the level reset is also happening to me.

I was really hoping this will be fixed in 34.20 but unfortunately it is not. The only way I found the custom UIs to work is when a new round is starting so players that join in progress will be reinitialized properly.

This device has way too many use cases (team scores, healthbars, rank systems, currency, points etc.) for it to be broken for 4 months now :disappointed_face: Hoping we get a fix soon!

Is there any update on this? The ticket has been stuck in ‘Ready for QA’ for nearly a month now.

I’ll check on status.

It seems to be finally working since the latest update to v34.30, at least in my 4 maps. Can somebody else confirm this? Because there was no mention about it in the Release Notes.

Well, it is working better, but it is still not reliable.

One hour ago I joined a session in progress with 2 my accounts (not at the same time and not in the team) when there were few players already and I saw the UI of Stat Creator on the HUD for both my accounts. But when I left it with my second account and joined after 30 minutes the same session again, this time the UI of the Stat Creator was not visible for that account.

Any updates?

Last night i tried a bunch of times with 3 different accounts, both in UEFN Sessions and a Private Version, it seems to be working just fine so far but I know that there’s usually differences in the way things function between Private and Public versions so I’m unsure about whether or not it actually works in a Public Match.

/update
It seems to be initializing the UI/Stats properly the first time you join, whether or not the session just started or has been going for a few minutes but you if leave and join that same session 30+ minutes later the UI fails to assign.
Then if you leave again and re-join the UI shows up correctly…

(Side note to the team working on fixing this)
When working on my custom rank system in Verse (without the Stat Creator), I found out some weird behavior where if you Pickup a VFX powerup while being eliminated/waiting on the black screen the VFX fails to pickup.

Could the same thing be happening to the Stat Creator? Where the UI/Stats are being initialized way before the player actually spawns into the game, and its why the UI never appears?

hey! how is it going? Already have a system around it but i dont want to post the map since its bugging and i cant do anything about it. Could you ask some people to look into this and prioritize it? been a while now

I can check, last I saw it was reproduced but still being investigated.

okay! would be amazing if it got solved asap as its been like this awhile. thanks for looking in to it

Hey! We’d really appreciate it if this bug could be fixed faster, as it’s been a while. I need the device for a custom UI with materials and animations.

I’m surprised this isn’t one of those ‘fix urgently’ bugs, maybe Epic doesn’t think that this device is all that important, when in reality it is. You can make so many things with ease but it’s been bugged ever since it released back in October/November of 2024 and not a single update has fixed it :confused:

The tracker has been like it for yrs i think the harsh reality is its extremely difficult to fix and as none of epics modes require jip its not a priority

Yeah… but it shouldn’t be this way, just because Epic doesn’t need it doesn’t mean we don’t as well… if they want this ecosystem to flourish they have to care about our bugs/issues too, not only when it affects them :confused:

I agree 100% many devices need re doing for jip issues to name a few

State Creator
Tracker Device
Billboard Device

I’m sure there is more but those are the main 3

Hello @Flak ! Any update on this issue? Last one is almost reaching 2 months :confused:

Checking on status.
