In my map, I’m using a save point device to save kills and gold, and I’m using Verse persistence to save point per kill for a level system that I have in my map. I have received multiple reports about players losing their data, including kills and gold
Steps to Reproduce
One of the players told me that he lost his data when he joined the map
Expected Result
When a player joins the map, kills and gold should load.
Hey again @Jimbohalo10
you might misunderstood me, the data reset is very rare and so far it only happened to 4 players from the reports i got in social media
but it didn’t happen to me so i don’t think it’s necessary to enable Simulate New Users in the edit session…
also for some reason i can’t load player in the link you sent me, it just gives empty page
hi @FUNCR ,
Well never seen that before. The same user/pass for this discussion should log you in properly.
There was once someone who had two accounts and had to get them linked.
Mine is just my standard email address/pass but does need multi-factor verification.
Update on this: This issue is still occurring. Sometimes gold resets, sometimes kills reset, and sometimes both! I received this clip from someone who was affected by it, and I hope it gets looked into. You can see in the clip that the player had 40 million gold, but when they rejoined, it was reset.
(i only use save point device to save data)
if a player matchmakes into an older, non-current version of an island, a HUD message displays stating that the island is not current, their save data will not be loaded, and their save game will not be modified.
In the documentation, they mention what happens if a player enters an old session after you’ve updated the map. For example, if a player joined version V21 when the latest version is V22. This is not the case with my map. They also mention a HUD message that should pop up, but it didn’t.
The player was playing in the latest version, and this issue is super rare. My guess is that after he left, another player killed him, which caused the problem. There’s a strange bug where if you die on any map at a certain time, your gold will show as -1 until you respawn. Maybe that’s what happened? I’m not sure.
