Hello Fortnite developers,
Here’s what to know ahead of v42.30, we have one known issue that we will be working on.
v42.30 Known Issues
Incorrect error message when partying with a player who doesn’t have island access
- When an island owner parties with a player who isn’t on the island’s team and tries to join using a private island code, the owner sees the error “You don’t have permission to play this content.” The error should say that their party member doesn’t have permission to play the island.
- Fix targeted for v43.10 (November 12)
