New Forge mode is awesome, but since using it I’ve encountered a bug that is capable of breaking forge maps permanently [as far as I know]. I’ve lost hours of progress and had to restart a few maps because of this bug. The solution should be simple enough and I’d greatly appreciate it if this reaches someone at 343i so it can be fixed ASAP.
The bug can be activated when you spawn an initial spawn point, set the physics to phased, place it inside the map and save the game. Upon reopening your map you will be stuck inside the structure and will have no functions other than to pause and leave the game. I understand that any sensible person would delete all initial spawns upon making this mistake but since I didn’t realize there were these bugged spawns in my worlds until it was too late, it can happen to anyone. My first map with this bug had multiple initial spawns but every time I opened it I was inside a wall. I don’t know all the conditions for this bug but I will update this post if I find a solution.
Please spread the word and try to prevent this bug from reaching other forge map creators. Thank you.
