Having the same issue with switches.

Also the same issue with a public version of a map. idk why these issues are even a thing like these are older devices that shouldnt bug yet there are so many issues with this type of thing :frowning:

same issue

here is my report of the bug

Can confirm this is still happening as of 38.11

definite bug, simple resolution is to check state and turn off and on as this is simply a visual bug

Here’s more information. In an empty Island:

1. Place down a switch device.
2. In the switch device change setting initial state ON and store state per player YES
3. Make sure there is 2 players in the map, then start the game.
4. End the game
5. Start the game.
6. One of the 2 players will have the visual switch issue where they appear off.

I think the bug response is for epic internal ref not stating they didn’t confirm the issue its a weird system this response thing.

Lololol another regression. 2026 next month and Epic seems to have 0 internal unit testing or regression testing occurring before their major releases. How embarrassing from a 20 billion dollar company :joy: :skull:
