I have tried and it works fine for me.
For packaged games i had to destroy the possesed pawn before traveling and respawn a new one once the travel was complete, not doing caused a crash.
Though im not sure what your issue is specifically.
Also, does anyone know how to ship the knuckles bindings made in the editor with a package game?
The bindings show up in the packaged under the steamvrbindings folder but it wont use them when running the game
