Summary
I never used SpawnParticleSystem. I just tried it out and it is unusable. It sometimes freezes all the players game when spawning the vfx for the first time. I can confirm this happens with any vfx, I created the most basic vfx using the template and it happens. I think it also has to do with how far from 0,0,0 the vfx spawns in the world and where the players are. But this is speculation. On lower end devices like the switch it may cause a crash.
It the clip I started the game and pressed the button, that time it did not happpen. Then I played 5m on the main island and after that teleported back to spawn. I pressed the button again and the lag happened.
I have other vfx in my map but those I do not spawn with verse, for example I have a siphon vfx that I play using a vfx powerup device. This has no issue. It is just the verse part here.

ActiveVFX := SpawnParticleSystem(VFX,Pos,?Rotation:=Rotation)
Sleep(Abs(TimeAlive))
ActiveVFX.Cancel()
}
OnButtonPressed(Agent:agent):void={
spawn{SpawnVFX(PanelVFX, B1.GetTransform().Translation, 2.0, ?Rotation := B1.GetTransform().Rotation)}
