TY, getting this to the devs!

Thanks for creating the report. Please keep me updated on any progress — I’ll be following this thread closely. I had just added the Kinetic Blade to my map and discovered it’s breaking Verse logic, so I’d like to resolve that as soon as possible. I really appreciate the assistance.

The kinetic blade broke verse ?

Its a known issue with the kinetic blade apparently, using its charge causes the EliminatedEvent to not fire when its user dies. But most important is for me to regain access to the project right now.

Oh i know about that one i reported that 8 month ago or so yea the work around is use the elim manager apparently. I thought you ment its causing issues with verse itself.

Hope it gets sorted for you :slight_smile:

@IntrepidNeon Could you zip up your entire project folder, upload it, and send me a link?
