On first opening from downloading Hunters War from the Google Play Store, the game will immediately crash. However, when you open it a second time, the app opens just fine.
This issue does not present when we install the game manually through ADB or APK.
Below I’ve attached logs we tested that is presenting the issue.
Also the below lists are the tests we conducted to find the source of the issue.
Have you seen this issue before? And do you know of any solution to this bug?
We recently went live, and have been receiving constantly receiving a lot of bad reviews and uninstalls stemming from this problem; so any help on finding the solution would be greatly appreciated.
Tests:
Engine version: Unreal Engine 4.19.0 from GIT - Modded to allow IPV6 connections to work as expected.
