You should now be able to update your island settings.

Deactivating islands in Fortnite Creative and UEFN gives you control over publishing, access, and visibility of your islands. This feature, accessible to Project Owners, Administrators, and Publishers, allows you to hide the island code, making it private while you refine your island. This feature offers flexibility and privacy until you choose to reactivate and publish your project again.

You can also directly publish a new island to a deactivated state to generate a code before the island goes live, enabling you to craft marketing materials ahead of publication.

See https://fn.gg/Deactivate for more information

Unreal Revision Control plugin for VS Code is now available, allowing you to access URC’s capabilities when working with Verse.

Three new devices have been added to the Patchwork system, Patchwork Filter Effect, Patchwork Gain Effect, and Patchwork Cable Splitter.

You’ll also have more options for your top-down twin-stick games with the Third Person Device.

As of now, it is not possible to create custom Niagara Systems using the "Unique Particle ID" emitter as a base. There seems to be an issue with the thumbnail. Other bases might have similar issues, but I didn't test it. When assigning the NS as a "Custom Visual Effect" in the VFX Spawner Device, I'm getting the following error when validating assets:

"Warnings logged while validating asset Texture2D /Engine/Transient.NiagaraSystem_2:ParticlesUniqueID.ThumbnailTexture contains no miplevels! This could happen if this texture is a thumbnail and hasn't been generated (Format: 0)"

Since we don't get access to the Engine folder UEFN, I don't think there is anything that we can do about this - or is there? If there is a way, I'd be happy to know, since I was hoping to be using these VFX in my project.

u/Beautiful-Fondant391 - They had a work around for you -
"If you collapse the emitter node (top left corner), and then click on the Thumbnail button, it captures a new thumbnail that should override the invalid data and allow validation"

We will provide another update once this issue is resolved.

This is now fixed and the UEFN Rocket Racing tracks matchmaking flow should work as intended.

We’re investigating an issue that is preventing some islands with Verse Persistable data from being published due to reported issues with backward compatibility. Thank you for your patience.

The issue has been resolved.  UEFN will need to be restarted.  Private versions of a project that previously incorrectly failed the backwards compatibility check will still fail.  A new otherwise identical private version should succeed.
