Yeah what the other guy said, you get on it and press the button to jump off and you lag up and down and stay on the zipline. What is the best way to send a video?

I just jumped on a zipline myself as you can see here: https://imgur.com/a/Cu6FHOL Not seeing any major issues. If something is affecting your device you can follow the format here for reporting an issue on reddit.

Can you explain exactly what the issue is that you are running into with ziplines? Videos and a detailed description of the issue are very helpful for our team in determining the cause and getting a fix in.

u/EpicDustyDevo the chest in the second floor of the abandoned mansion breaks when you hit the wall next to it, but only if you hit the TV and bed next to it too. Every few updates, there's a new piece nearby that causes the chest to break, seemingly at random.

OK so this one was *technically* behaving correctly. The wood boards the chest is on is attached to the wall separating the chest from the bedroom. If you break the wall, the boards the chest is on break, which means the chest breaks. I moved the boards down a nudge so they would attach to the door & arch on the lower floor, which seems to make more sense in this case.

FYI all these fixes will be live in 10.20, 10.10 is already locked.

Wack. OK I'll take a look here in a second.

In case anyone's curious, what we do is assign parent actors to objects that we want to be destroyed if the object underneath it is destroyed. There seems to be a bug in that parenting code right now, but I can fix the issues manually while we wait for the code fix, so thanks for pointing them out.

I tested it today, and it seems already fixed, sorry! And thank you for your efforts on the game!

Sure, drop me a message if you find any more. They're easy bugs to fix.

Southeast of the town in Lazy Lagoon, it’s the little hut up on the grass ledge that currently has the Lazy Links entrance sign on top of it.

If you build a stair adjacent to the south side of the hut to go up to the chest it also breaks the bed inside, which destroys the chest.

OK, meaning it doesn't happen currently since the version w the bed in it isn't there, right?

Due to last minute issues discovered with the build, we’ve had to delay the timing for the release of the v10.10 update. We'll provide more details on an exact time once we have more information.

And a bunch of things talked and reported on not being listed in the Trello for fixing makes us feel less important. Can we make a post here by you that asked switch players for all the issues and them to be added to the Trello boards so we at least know we are heard?

Every patch I create a mega thread that allows players to enter issues they have. It works for Switch and mobile players the same. If you wish to create your own thread, feel free to and tag myself or drew. I cant help the way reddit upvote/downvote system works. Threads that have 3000+ upvotes vs 1 upvote do not mean much in difference when they are showing an issue. We normally will see these threads just as much as we see threads that have large traction on them.

Thats an iOS 13 issue and not Fortnite. As we have mentioned before it is not recommended to use iOS 13 when playing Fortnite.

This sub supports Switch players. We report the issues that Switch players have the same as mobile players. We see much less Switch post then mobile typically but the Switch is not ignored.
