Verse code that doesn't exist causing errors.

Summary

We recently pushed our game live and got the live Verse path, but now we’re running into a strange issue. When trying to launch a session or validate the project, we’re getting errors related to Verse code that no longer exists. The weird part is that these errors don’t show up when building the Verse code—only when launching or validating.

We even reverted the project back to a baseplate, but the errors from the old Verse code are still there. Because of this, we’re completely blocked from making any new changes to the map.
Any new device that downloads the map and try to launch a session get the same issue so it’s not local.

The error seems to point to Ambiguous identifiers aka the same word is being used to reffer to 2 different things, with one of them seeming to be from the UnrealEngine verse digest which you cant modify.

Try Chaning the Name of “Playspace” in the round_manager verse device to something like Playspace1

The code has been removed. The problem is that the error still appears every time when trying to validate. Even reverting back to the first checkin baseplate with nothing on it (0 verse code) an error still appears when trying to validate it.

Did you by any chance had verse persistence enabled?

Yes verse persistance is enabled. My theory is that for some reason its checking my new version with the live version thats published and that’s somehow throwing an error since the live code has the “Playspace” variable in it. However as far as i know there’s nothing i can do about that without external help.

Do you have any previous version without verse persistence? on the creator portal published?

This is the initial version sadly, so not able to rollback to anything else.
