Island Settings

A Fortnite experience takes place on an island. The island is equivalent to the game's level or map. There is a device called Island Settings that has several properties to define the format and rules of your experience.

The changes we are going to make in the Island Settings for our game are related to the display of the Scoreboard at the end of the match.

The Island Settings device is a must-study topic for those who wish to produce UEFN experiences.
