Summary
Cannot start UEFN Edit Session with Team Members/Collaborators due to error “Unable To Connect To Beacon”
What Type of Bug are you experiencing?
Editor
Steps to Reproduce
- Start up UEFN Editor as usual.
- Start preferred project up while in lobby with teammate.
- Launch Session on PC.
Expected Result
- Editor starts up match, but the game does not seem to recognise that it has started. Lobby/Fortnite gives the player an error notification. (Usually “Unable To Connect To Beacon”.)
Observed Result
- Get stuck in lobby with a notification saying “Cannot change gamemode while in a UEFN Edit Session. Ask the editor to close session or leave the party.” OR “Unable To Connect To Beacon” OR any of the other matchmaking errors.
I’m able to join the UEFN Edit Session on my own, but whenever I want to work together with my team (which are all added to the correct project), it gives us this outcome. Only one teammate somehow got through these errors and was able to join.
Only one line in the logs is red, which reads as following:
LogHotfixManager: Error: /Game/Athena/Balance/DataTables/CashPricingItemDef.CashPricingItemDef: Duplicate row name ‘/DrivingNebula/Gameplay/WID_DrivingNebula.WID_DrivingNebula’.
