When console players load into maps, sometimes their persistence data is not found, leading to resets on many occasions because you check if a player has any data before giving them new data. If it says they have no data, you create new data for them, therefore resetting their data when it actually exists.

Additional Notes
It only occurs in this map, and I have similar code and persistence setups in other maps, so my guess is the size of the map or how long it takes to load when a console player is loading in.
This is also happening to some of my players. My save data consists of 3 integers (A version number, experience for levels, and currency), an enum array, and an enum optional. This is a very critical issue.
Still continuing to have this problem across other games as well. Havoc Hotel early access, grinded out the first few uprades for 5 hours only to log in to a new server and have all my progress rest as well as being unable to start over as I no longer earn anything. Stuck at $83
This is happening in Miner Tycoon. Many long term players with hundreds of hours have been reset. I would say hundreds have been reset based off our discord. The game is in standby mode until Epic can respond and fix. Please fix our game!
Unable to join on other’s without a possible memory wipe, and server boot in a private lobby has also lost people progress. Bosses are falling through the floor as well.
Our island Rocket Wars 5196-0233-5799 is also experiencing Verse Persistence data loss since v33.00 went live, players have lost their Rank and Achievements that they’ve unlocked from before this update. New data written is not saved between sessions.
