Go to Configure Place on any place/experience you own.
Change the game title from example1 to example2 and save changes.
Go back to the page of your experience and look at the title to see the difference with the loading screen gui when you first join, where it shows the outdated title instead of the new one that shows correctly on the website but not in-game loading screen nor in the link of the page.
This can happen when the place information differs from the game information (eg having a secondary place in a game and giving it a different title to make it appear as such during the teleport/loading screen)
This can also happen if a game which is already english gets given an english translation, as it can show the game information on places like group pages, but will show the translations provided for the english language on the game page itself
I’m pretty sure I’ve also heard of a bug where it doesn’t properly update the title/images for the game/places and shows old information despite updating everything, although I believe that may have been patched since it was last reported.
Just rename the starter place from the Asset Manager to the game name. That will fix the issue. This issue occurs when you create a place and rename it on the site or smth. This is current the fix for this issue.
That is very odd because most of us have always changed the game title via configure place which updated both the universe name and start place until recently. This is most likely a bug considering the recent issues with game titles/descriptions reverting to previous texts in configure place. Though what you suggested is a temporary fix for now until it gets resolved.
This disparity shouldn’t happen tho cus I renamed the place from the settings in studio when accessing it from the main place. I will attempt your fix but it’s still weird that it’s considered as incorrect behavior unless confirmed by an engineer.
This is occurring for Aimblox as well, and it’s frustrating as we often update our description and need to catch ourselves from accidentally reverting to the description and game title as it was over a week ago.
This is not the usual case of place name mismatching the universe name. It’s simply not saving the place configuration correctly at all.
This does not fix anything as we explained earlier in this topic if you actually read what we said. Asset Manager is the only temporary fix until Configure Place is fixed and updates the game title correctly without reverting back to the previous game title as you can see above.
I am experiencing this problem right now. I have been trying to change my description for the past hour, but it keeps reverting back to the old description after about 5 minutes.
After clicking “Save”, the new text would temporarily show up on the game page, and I made no further changes. The text would revert back to the old description after about 2-5 minutes.
I worked around this by going to the “My Creations” tab and clicking on the place asset settings here:
After editing it here instead, the description and title were able to be changed, but upon entering the game, the loading screen still shows the old title of the place.
I am also able to reproduce this but through editing the game through studio’s Game Settings.
The settings tab has the correct game name, the viewport one is incorrect.
Hi! We have made a change so that updating the root place place or the game name from game settings will now correctly update the other item’s name. This won’t retroactively fix cases where they differ, but going forward this shouldn’t happen more. Please reply if you have new instances of game/place names getting out of sync. Thanks!
Hey - having this issue right now with our game RoBeats:
Starting place name (what is shown in the loading screen) is refusing to update to match the changed experience name (what we could set in the configure place page).
