SAVE POINT DEVICE NOW IN FORTNITE!

With the new Creative Save Point device, you can pick up right where you left off! It's now available to all artists!

Players can save their progress across several playing sessions, enabling them to return to your game time and time again. By including the device on your map, you will be able to track eliminations, inventories, resources, and more throughout numerous sessions! Are you creating a Deathrun game and want players to continue where they left off? The Save Point device is just what you require. Developing a racing game in which players may track their fastest lap time? Again, the Save Point device comes in handy.

CREATIVE DOCUMENTATION WEBSITE

We’re excited to announce the launch of the Fortnite Creative Documentation site. Docs on this site feature technical details for Creative features and systems -- all written and published by the Fortnite Dev Team. It’s a great resource for all developers, with info for beginners who are just getting started as well as for seasoned Builders looking for a deeper understanding of Creative tools and techniques. We will continue to add to the Docs site over time and give you a heads-up when new content is added. Give it a look and share any feedback you might have on how we can make it even more useful to you.

FEATURE REMOVALS

  • We've removed the ability to put devices into item dispensers for use as inventory

As we look to the future of Creative, occasionally we need to remove older features or fix unintended features which make it hard for us to develop new content. This was one of those unintended features which people used to fulfill a need but is now blocking us from progressing on Creative. We understand that there is a legitimate need for something to fulfill the role of the items we’ve removed, and we are working on introducing some more suitable items to properly fill that gap in an upcoming release.

DEVICES

  • Added Save Point device
    • This device saves various pieces of player data and persists it between play sessions.
    • Only one set of data exists per player per island, so it is possible to have multiple Save Points which save different portions of data and they will all save to the same data file, only overwriting each other if they have the same options set.
    • An option has been added to the Publishing flow to allow all player data to be cleared when the map is republished. This will clear ALL data for ALL players for this map - use with caution.
    • Enabled During Phase: None, All, Pre-Game Only, Gameplay Only (Default: All).
    • Auto Save: Yes, No (Default: Yes).
      • When Auto-Save is ON, player data is saved continually.

      • This option saves all checkpoint devices the player has touched, in order, so that they can be used again in later sessions.
    • Save Player Location: Yes, No (Default: Yes).
      • If set to YES, this will retain the player’s exact location and respawn them there during auto-load, without use of a Player Spawn device or Checkpoint.
    • Save Team: Yes, No (Default: No).
      • This could cause issues on maps where players are assigned to teams randomly at game start, so use with caution.

      • Saves the player’s current Class setting.
    • Allow Player to Clear Data: Yes, No (Default: No).
