Unreal Editor for Fortnite
What Type of Bug are you experiencing?
Devices
Summary
We can’t grab a Flag item from a Capture Item Spawner Device if we do not have an empty inventory slot.
This is most likely by design and not an issue, but it is un-intuitive to not have at least a warning saying ‘full inventory’ or something like that. Or having the fortnite character shake their head like they do when we can’t perform other actions.
Many players end up believing the map is bugged because of this.
Steps to Reproduce
-Place a Capture Item Spawner Device, drop a Flag Item from the consumables list (or set the item through the options list in UEFN)
-Place other weapons and items to pick up in the game.
-Start the game and grab other weapons and items to fill up your inventory.
-Try to grab the flag.
Expected Result
The game should warn the player of not having an empty inventory slot through a simple pop up message, a visual cue like the character shaking their head, or straight up replacing the item you’re holding with the flag.
Observed Result
Players can’t grab the flag and there is no visual cue or warning of that being because they have no inventory slots available. This causes issues with players believing the game is bugged or not properly set.

Additional Notes
This has been an issue for years, and it makes Capture The Flag games un-intuitive and not good for players to understand. There needs to be a fix as soon as possible.
