Adding minimal reproduction and additional context, it seems to add a strange delay to sliding normally, and also completely breaks jumping and landing into a slide (shown in attached video).

Minimal reproduction verse device:

using { /Fortnite.com/Devices }
using { /Verse.org/Simulation }
using { /UnrealEngine.com/Temporary/Diagnostics }
using { /Fortnite.com/Characters }
using { /Fortnite.com/Game }
using { /Fortnite.com/FortPlayerUtilities }
using { /UnrealEngine.com/Temporary/SpatialMath }

respawn_device := class(creative_device):

    OnBegin<override>()<suspends>:void=
        AllPlayers := GetPlayspace().GetPlayers()
        if (Player := AllPlayers[0], Fort := Player.GetFortCharacter[]):
            Fort.EliminatedEvent().Subscribe(RespawnAgent)

    RespawnAgent(Result: elimination_result):void=
        if (Agent := Result.EliminatedCharacter.GetAgent[]):
            Agent.Respawn(vector3{X:=0.0,Y:=0.0,Z:=32.0}, rotation{})

Bump
**edit: also seems to impact character step up angle

And you can slide. You just have to hold slide for some reason.

This is the only thing that is holding back the gameplay in our maps, we have been getting complaints for months now and all we can say is that we are waiting for a fix from Epic. Please pay attention to this bug. :pray:

I experienced disabled sliding on my map for over 2 months, but I wasn’t aware it was because of a custom respawn logic. I always thought it was just another one of the random UEFN bugs. Hopefully, it gets fixed someday.

Bumping - this sliding issue is still present in v30.40 and negatively impacts the experience for all players affected by it.

Bump. It occurs in our maps after verse respawn as well, and drastically impacts the experience for all players
