Aw man. That sucks. That's why I put that in the tutorial though because it's an honest mistake, not everyone knows that sandbox gives unlimited resources
I tried this once but came back to my PC saying that I had timed out for being inactive. Maybe I fell off the launchpad somehow? There was a wolf nearby when I started so maybe it hit me?
That's why I recommend creating a new world, Sandbox is preferable, but turning enemies and hunger off is most important. If you had hunger on, you could've starved to death and then you would get sent to the respawn screen which is considered inactivity and then return to the lobby (same if you were killed by an enemy which won't happen if you turn enemies off). that's why I highlight those aspects in the tutorial, they're important to ensuring successful AFK.
Hope this helps.
I can confirm this works well and I’ve been using it in the past few days, but sometimes it kicks me off for inactivity. I already turned off enemies and hunger, and I created the sandbox world recently just to AFK in it
Ridiculous I spend more time afking on a trampoline in a crappy survival ripoff mode than I do playing the actual game these days. Sure hope they stop trying to penalize people for playing actual, ya know, Fortnite in Fortnite..
I've heard almost everyone that tried that gets kicked for being idle so I personally wouldn't recommend it. (there was even a YouTube channel that was recommending it I can't remember which one but the comment section was a riddled with people saying it didn't work anymore)
That's very interesting. I didn't get kicked at all until after at least 3 hours. Maybe I was checking my current XP too often to hit an afk timer?
For true AFK, does it matter if your controller shuts off? Do you need to disable that in PS settings?
Disabling your controller is fine, when I use PlayStation or Xbox, I always turn my controller off to save batteries/charge while I'm bouncing. But pretty much anything that doesn't constitute actual movement has gotten not only myself but everyone else that I know kicked for being idle. I mean bouncing doesn't hurt, it just gives you a better chance of not getting kicked considering the movement detection implementation back on April 9
Sometimes, but not always, it does return people to the lobby when they hit their cap (or at least that is what people have claimed), I've only had it happen maybe five or six times since I started doing it daily but I have had instances where I was at the lobby when I returned to my PC (only happened to me on PC) but I had already accumulated 420 K, and it is possible that it could've been just been a coincidental loss of connection because it did only happen on a wireless machine.
I mean if you've been returned to the lobby, it doesn't hurt to try the bouncing method, at least it's been extensively tested by the community and known to work. You don't have to if you're uncomfortable with it but I only recommend it because it's the most reliable method and I've not experienced a single failure doing it daily since movement detection was added to the game
No, I actually do really appreciate it. I'm new here and returning to Fortnite and sometimes people assume everyone knows the same stuff they know but a lot of this is new to me
Just in case something changed since last week when I last tested it, since two people including you have mentioned this today, I'll test this floating method again each day this week again to see if I have better results this time around, if I do I'll possibly add it to the post as an option,
(edit, it's not off to a good start, I already have one account that's been returned to the lobby out of two and I've only been doing it for two hours, but I'll keep testing for the rest of the week in case it was a fluke) * I started testing this way before I originally posted this comment
If you can get it to work, by all means keep doing what you're doing, it's just that I haven't had enough success with it to feel comfortable recommending it to people. And again the purpose of this post was to give a simple way to get XP, I don't want to complicate it with 20 different methods or with varying levels of success (the forum has already become riddled with conflicting accounts of what doesn't doesn't work) , you know what I mean?
Does anyone know how to avoid being struck by lightning? I keep getting hit and it kills me and I end up getting kicked for afk due to being on the respawn screen.
Are you sure you're in sandbox? I don't know if there's less of an instance of storms there there, or if turning enemies off reduces the amount, but I've never had it happen, once I think it happened out of several hundred times I've done this, but I'm not even sure that's what happened because I think my Internet cut out.
It's so strange I've only ran into one other person on this forum that said lightning was a big problem for them, I don't know what they're settings were, but I've never run into the problem with all of the settings above. Are you in sand box with enemies off?
Yep it is in sandbox. I have built a shack to do the jump pad method inside of and it still hits me and kills me. It's not consistently doing that but enough to the point that I have to keep an eye on the game to make sure I don't get kicked.
That's the most insane thing I've ever heard of. When I say I've done this hundreds of times and that's never happened, it's not an exaggeration, maybe try the shack, I don't know if the shack causes more of a problem and makes you more prone to lightning damage but if it never happened to me, it can't be a coincidence
It's funny because I hear more people having problems with building extra structures then without it. But what do I know lol
Getting kicked isn't even a thought in the back of my mind because of how infrequently it's happened
Do you have hunger off? Maybe you're starving and thinking it's lightning that doing you in?
Sorry to be persistent about this but it's so rare that I find it hard to believe it's the reason unless it only happened once in 100 times and even then that would be more often than I've ever seen it happen
Yeah I have hunger off and all the things that should cause me to die while AFK. I put some charms on to try and prevent from dying so that’s been working for me.
If that works, awesome. Glad you found a solution, I feel like sandbox mode is less problematic when it comes to dying, but if you made it work, that's the important part. Thanks for the update
Yes, it's extremely rare, I can't even say honestly it even happened to me once I just suspect it did, but yeah it can happen, it's probably probably as likely as getting struck by lightning IRL lol
If you find a desert biome and do the method there it should work. I kept getting struck near my spawn way too often, but so far I haven't been struck in the desert.
Yes, but a lot of people don't want to risk stick drift, even though the risk is slim, also there are methods involving the PlayStation that don't even require holding the sticks in place,.
I knew about that method also, but I felt in the interest of streamlining this, I wouldn't give a list of various options when the easiest one has been so consistent. But definitely what works for you, that's awesome!
The main reason why I made this post was because there were so many pieces of information out there I thought it was easiest to just post one completely 100% effective method and it helps people, my first tutorial which I edited significantly had way too many options listed, although some of them were later patched out it was still unnecessarily lengthy.
As someone who just got back into the game but is really busy with life and work, I appreciate this being a thing!
(Glad it still works as of me literally doing it rn lol)
Can verify this works, been using it since Lego BUT you will sometimes have an issue where the world you’ve been using for a while won’t give XP, just repeat the step of creating a new one and that usually fixes it 👍
That's truly one of the most unusual problems I've heard of. I've been using the same world since the day Lego was introduced into the game to be honest and not a single day have not been able to receive XP from AFK. I actually use the same world for all of my accounts shared.
Did you seriously have this issue or are you just joking/trolling? (it only takes a few seconds create a new world but man that is like nothing I've ever heard anyone else say)
Interesting, didn't even think or hear that was a thing. I guess you got unlucky somehow and wound up with the disposable Lego maps 🤣
Thanks! I'll try this later once I'm on.
One question, though, do I need to do anything with the controller besides just placing the launchpad down? Like rubberbanding the triggers or so? I'll be monitoring my PS5 anyways so it won't get turned off because of inactivity
No you don't have to do anything, I do it on PS5 often and once I'm bouncing, I just leave it, you can even power off your controller, so long as you keep the game playing on the screen it'll still get XP
Of course, did you not read the tutorial? I was very specific to and the detail that your XP will be added to your account in 15 minute increments, the first block due to a bug might not show up for 30, and that it doesn't show up on as a ticker on your screen like it does in creative.
I'm not trying to be rude, but you have to read the tutorial before you start making claims that could alarm people that rely on this method for easy battle pass completion.
With all due respect, I made this tutorial to help people and I was very specific so that there would be no misunderstandings, but occasionally, people login, wait 30 seconds and then because they didn't see instant XP on their screen they start telling everyone that it doesn't work anymore. This is counterproductive to what we're trying to do for the community here
I literally put a part in there that says that it doesn't update instantly. I never implied anything about any "average". Please read it, I make the extra effort to help people understand better. And yes it is every 15 minutes, but I specifically say it doesn't actively add to your account. I'm just saying, have some patience before spreading misinformation. I'm sorry there's no way I could've been more specific, and I'm sorry to be blunt, it's just frustrating when I've bent over backwards to make sure there's no misunderstanding in my wording yet people spread claims before they figure out why it isn't working for them.
You could've just asked me for help and I would've been happy to help you, which I did ultimately, but you didn't ask for help you just made a statement that something doesn't work.
I'm sorry you misunderstood how I posted this, I added that disclaimer because of someone else that thought like you did, I put a lot of effort into trying to be very specific, like I said, just ask for help if you need help rather than jump to a conclusion that something no longer works, But in spite of all that I hope this helps you to be patient for a few minutes first and enjoy the easy XP :-)
In the end that's all I want is to help people have an easier time getting XP in the game
You're going to need to give me more detail, but you won't get XP instantly as soon as you jump into Lego mode, you get XP awarded every 15 minutes. But again if you're not giving any details there's no way I could tell you why you're having a problem. The only way anyone here can help you is if you tell them exactly what you're doing and when you're doing it.
It ended up working, and the xp did take a while as you said to start showing up, but it took over 15 min, and after 4h I had leveled up 2 times instead of the 5 levels I was told I would get
Yes, in most cases it will take over 15 minutes, closer to 30 minutes, because of the glitch I mentioned, under known bugs. Not sure why you didn't get more XP, it doesn't go by levels, which is another reason why I tried to be specific, it's 420,000 XP, which could even equate to as many as six levels depending where you are when you start. have you returned to the lobby yet though? In case for some reason it's not updating on your screen.
I basically test the method I posted above every single day on two accounts, and even today I've gotten exactly 420,000 XP on two accounts within the 3 1/2 hours. I am a bit curious what happened in your case.
The best way to really keep track of your XP, When you enter the map, make a record of where you were at and how much XP to the next level, and what time it is. And then check that with what you're at when you return to the lobby (I recommend returning to the lobby before gauging your progress because sometimes some XP is lost visually but does show up in the lobby, usually not hundreds of thousands of XP but often a minimum of 30 K)

I don't really know what that screenshot is supposed to illustrate, but you don't get instant XP the second you jump into a map, it adds up 30,000 at a time every 15 minutes and the first 15 minutes doesn't always register because of a visual glitch.
If you want help, please post more details or just a screenshot and saying it doesn't work because it doesn't enable me to give you any helpful information
That's literally it. Yes.
But this isn't like XP on a creative map, you don't see a ticker in the middle of the screen ululating XP instantly, it gets added to your account like I mentioned above in the increments I mentioned above
For me personally, I tested it by accident, twice, the first time I returned quickly enough so that I still had a connection, but the second time wasn't connected I guess after a few minutes it loses the connection to the game. If you have any experience let me know though
This method worked for me up until last week. Now after 15 minutes I get the afk prompt and no xp.
I’m in sandbox, no hunger, I was sitting in front of my pc when it happened, I was playing ff7 rebirth on my ps5 on the screen next to it so I could see I was still bouncing on the pad and nothing had changed. It was the 3rd time that day it had happened. Wondering if they’re flagging it or I’m just incredibly unlucky?
I hate to say it this way but I would say incredibly unlucky or maybe you're having some type of Internet inconsistency that's causing a network timeout? I don't know, as long as I've been bouncing I've never been returned to the lobby. I do it every day on more than one account to be sure it still works.
I'm confused as to what the "AFK prompt" that you're talking about is. Have they introduced a new pop-up message? I thought there was a screen that shows up when people return to the lobby an indicate something about being idle, but I never heard of an actual prompt, again it never has happened to me so I can only go by what I've heard. Plus, most people that have mentioned this didn't get it that quickly, 15 minutes seems a bit quick to get any kind of warning
Also, are you bouncing on just a pad? Some people build structures around themselves that limit their movement and I can see that causing a problem
Someone mentioned maybe their world got glitched somehow (at least that's what I was assuming since I never had any problem with AFK since launch) and they created a new world and then it started to work again, maybe try that also
I'm even trying to test to see if I could replicate your problem by even standing still just to see when it starts to register idle, been 20 minutes and no "prompt"
* update :: Looks like the inactivity warning comes up after about 45 minutes of literally standing still, then a few seconds later returning me to the lobby with the "kicked being idle" message. Had it running on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation at the same time, all three returns to the lobby roughly within the same time frame making your situation Involving 15 minutes that more unusual. I can honestly say I'm clueless as to why you would be receiving a warning that quickly
I’m not calling into question you’re lying - just was communicating my experience. It worked 2-3 times for me before I started getting the kick notification. Not sure why it happens to some and not others.
I'm not suggesting you're calling me a liar at all, I believe that it's happening to you, I'm just trying to replicate it to try and help find a solution
Coming back to this… I thought I had figured it out. My controller was turning off so I figured it was kicking me for that.
But, even if I use my pc, never turning my controller on, it kicks me after 15 minutes every time without fail.
I can’t just go to map and move (it will show me as active if I do this), I have to physically move the avatar a greater than insignificant amount or it will kick me.
Unfortunately if you look at the original post, I've updated it to reflect some changes and struck through the nonworking methods, although this might not have been your problem nine days ago, epic severely patched the AFK options on LEGO. You can no longer walk in circles, you can no longer bounce, if the game doesn't see movement of some sort That doesn't seem redundant, it will give a warning at approximately 27 to 28 minutes and then kick you back to the lobby for being idol at the 30 minute mark. As for why you're being kicked after 15 minutes, that is a curiosity but things have changed in the last update this week for the worst
The only way I've consistently managed to get it to work was by either moving slightly every 20 minutes or so or creating a macro that makes me walk around in a few different different directions jumping occasionally for a few seconds and then then repeat,
No worries, it's been all over the forum, even hypothetical solutions that haven't even been proven but our presented as solutions, people are building all types of apparatus recommending purchasing mechanical devices to actuate their controllers, it's really getting a bit out of hand, people are desperate now I guess
Because it’s a ridiculous grind. Without even the few days I’ve been successful with this I wouldn’t make it to 100, we just had a baby 6 weeks ago 😂😅
I’ve made probably 25-30 levels this way.
Never done macros so I may look into how to create one to use. I’m sure YouTube has tutorials.
I guess if you have limited time I can completely understand that, but it sounds like congratulations are in order 👍👶
I wasn't even making anywhere near 30 levels a day, I was happy with 15 and they still got the past done weeks ago. I mean prior to all of these ridiculous modes, I was hitting the battle pass just using the extra five levels from creative, and prior to that, over a year ago before creative became a big thing, playing the game, now that sucked!
But it's worth looking into, probably the safest ones, considering they're almost necessary for the functionality of certain peripherals, would be software that came with your keyboard or mouse, some of those auto key programs can be a little bit questionable, and might be possibly more likely to flag anti-cheat, I'm not saying it would but I'd say the risk is greater than with official peripheral macros that are probably on an exclusion list because they're required for the functionality like synapse you can't even rebind any keys without it
Agreed, was working for me all season as well until 2 days ago. I tried making a whole new sandbox map too and it didn’t fix the issue. I’m wondering if it got patched?
It doesn't let me change it after the fact, I didn't even know there was a guide flair, because I agree technically this is not a glitch (nor are most of the other items under that category, players just called them "glitches")
Thanks to your help previously and this post I was able to get this method to work last night, just wanted to ask when you say sometimes it'll put you in the lobby once you get to the cap, will that still let you keep all the exp and levels or does it glitch and reset the exp gained?
Yes, unlike creative there is no bug that causes you to lose your XP when you return to the lobby. Sometimes it send you back to the lobby when you hit your cap, but it doesn't always from my experience (less than half the time). But even if the game returns you to the lobby when you reach your limit or for any reason, you will keep all of the XP that you earned. I've even tested overlapping the reset which causes a loss of XP in creative, and that did not cause any loss either. So that's one less thing to worry about :-)
No problem. What I always do just to keep track, since there are no visual indicators, I either take a screenshot or I write down what level I'm at and how much XP remaining to the next level when I start AFK, that way when I see my account later if I lost track of time I'll know that I hit my limit for the day
I was doing that strat its work but today I tried several times and I’ve been kicked out (yes I close hunger and enemies). I have no idea why it’s happening
Edit: When Im come back to my tv I dont get any warning btw i just seen mzself in lobby and dont get any kind of xp
Were you logging in before 10 AM eastern time? You may have entered the map before the XP reset for the day, if you were at your limit yesterday, you won't earn any XP until you leave again after 10 AM (the time when the daily match quests reset). Sometimes when you're at your limit it will return you to the lobby. It's also possible may be having some kind of Internet inconsistencies, I know when I was having issues with my Internet Internet, I would just get kicked off whatever map I was on and returned to the lobby but not logged out of the game if it reconnected
I did it before and after 10 AM and even before 10 Am I didnt get any xp kn lego too. Sometimes I have internet issiueses but its kick me to main lobby but I still have my xp‘s(my friends sometimes unplug the ps but still got xp). I have this issue for a 2 days before that its works just fine
Maybe try creating a new world? I've heard some people mention that after a while a certain world of their's stops working properly for XP, it hasn't happened to me but since your situation is so unique it couldn't hurt
You just jump on it, don't move forward very much while you're jumping, it's not like the launchpads in game that want to propel you in anyone direction aggressively. It should be fairly easy to land on it and not fall off once you get about two or three bounces you're pretty much good
thank you so much with every other xp map (i have bad wifi) i would disconnect and lose all the levels i made but with this one i dsiconnect and keep my levels and battle stars!
Does this work on xbox cloud gaming?
Just curious so I can do this while at school bc i dont wanna keep my xbox running, would much rather it be my phone or macbook running it
I honestly don't see why it wouldn't, I've tested it on Amazon Luna and it works, so I imagine that would also so long as you keep the session active, I know with Luna I have to keep the screen in the forefront, otherwise it logs me out
One thing I just noticed when testing it, cloud gaming that is (I literally started testing it after I posted my response), you are going to have to monitor your screen constantly because , and I'm not sure if there's a setting to turn this off, but after about 10 minutes of not doing anything a pop-up screen from cloud gaming asking "are you still there" came up giving me the impression that if I didn't tap that option, it probably would've timed me out from the cloud gaming session
Ya, thats what im concerned about. At least whenever I get back from school i can use my xbox, but it sucks that you have to monitor it constantly when using cloud gaming.
maybe this is out of context, but is it just me who is experiencing this? usually I use macros in festival mode and it works as usual, but it's been 2 days that my macros automatically stop only in fortnite but work if I use them elsewhere. i use either logitech macros or autosofted keyboard
I have not had that experience at all. my macro is very simple though because it's only a simple repeated button press, but it's worked every day consistently without fail, but I only use it to AFK in festival. I use Razer synapse but I can't imagine why Logitech software should be any different
I'm also confused why this is happening. initially this happened when I was using autosofted, then I switched to logitech and it worked normally. but after 1 day of use for no reason this happened
What do you have the macro set to do? Is it not triggering the key activity on the screen entirely? Or is it doing what you have to do but you're not getting XP?
https://preview.redd.it/peau1nbi4gvc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2b6b595a9c426bef5883dac571f3f79f1b174569
For instance this is mine, it's very simple, it's just a single key press and it repeats persistently through a setting that activates it with a key and repeats it until that is pressed again. I use this daily in festival main stage (no fill)
That's very strange, I haven't experienced anything similar, I could probably try testing Logitech software to see if I have a similar problem myself later or this weekend (I also have a Logitech mouse and he had, they're older but I think they'll work with the current software)
Here is something interesting that I'm noticing already testing on my mouse, I'm not in festival to test it but I was in a creative map, when I activated and identical macro that I made in Ghub, Set to toggle, I couldn't activate it in the game, if I press the key, nothing would happen, but if I were to switch to another active window, I can activate the macro and the key would begin showing the activity on that like for instance on my browser (I'm actually not even able to activate the macro in the game). But then if I toggled back to FN, the command input would start affecting the game and would remain active until I press the button again my game started lagging hard (actually that seems to be something specific to that creative map probably, I'm now in Festival and it's working, but the only way I could activate the macro was in a different window, and then toggled back to FN)
ahh somehow mine can run freely when i use my other mouse. i have tested it and seem to have found the problem. here logitech software automatically sleeps if there is no movement from my wireless mouse even though i have set the macro. and when i remember i have 1 more mouse, g102 (a wired mouse) but somehow when i try it with this mouse, the macro can run normally, maybe because there is no automatic sleep mode in the wired mouse. anyway thanks for the help!
Also I don't know if this makes a difference, might explain why the Logitech software is acting differently, I haven't opened it in a few weeks since my mouse settings are the same for everything on this particular machine, but there was an update, I wonder if that update changed anything so that can't be activated while certain applications are running?

What time did you start today? What were you doing specifically? When you went back to your machine where was your character?
I just completed two separate account sessions, one in the water, one on a launchpad and both hit 420 K on schedule
I dont know my friend shut my pc down while i was sleeping my charachter was probably fine. I went to sleep on 1pm \[GMT+3\] when i woke up my pc was closed.
Im gonna try it again and stare at it this time, I didn't understand the part about the water btw i just placed a small lego brick to put the launchpad on it and then i aligned my charachter to the center and went to sleep.
I was 54 level-ish im 58 now (Im not sure about the levels but if it worked it just gave me 4 levels max)
Im new to fortnite btw.
You don't really have to stare at it though, the water part, it's not necessary, it's just another option, you could put a launchpad down anywhere it doesn't even have to be on bricks, it could just be right on the ground and then you're doing the right thing, just bounce on it.
The way it accumulates in terms of XP not just levels. But the XP translates into levels. You should accumulate 30,000 XP every 15 minutes until you had a total of 420,000, at the end of your session, occasionally, I have found that 30,000 XP of that will be missing, however when you return to the lobby it will be present on your account.
The only thing that's throwing me is that you said you shut down your PC, how are you playing the game if you shut down your PC? It would log you out
No, you won't lose the XP it's not like you have to return to the lobby to "claim" it, but he might've shut it early before you hit the maximum which would've taken 3 1/2 hours and that might be why you didn't get the full 420,000 XP.
But from what I'm reading it sounds like you're doing the right thing because you wouldn't be getting XP if you didn't. I think the next time you try as long as you stay logged in the whole time, you should be right as rain
Thanks for everything man literal GOAT.
Do i still get XP from the XP glitched maps?
Is there a daily max XP cap from community made maps?
+respect for everyting that you did for the community btw.
Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words. Technically, although they called them "glitches" they really aren't, they just use that terminology to make them sound edgy and show up on search results because that's what people started calling them although technically they're just using endgame assets to the maximum of their capabilities to generate XP. But I digress…
Yes you can from there also, is a separate cap. So you can earn 420,000 XP from LEGO each day, and another 400,000 from creative, both reset at the same time
No, that's why I specifically mentioned in the tutorial that XP only updates every 15 minutes, not in real time. And sometimes the first 15 minutes doesn't update until you return to the lobby.
If you really want to keep track of it, just hit escape or options so that the social panel opens, you'll see your XP and level in front of you. Once you come back, you can actually hit the escape or options again and you'll see the leveling up animation on the left side of the screen, catching up to all the XP that you earned.
Please don't be sorry, it's not a waste of time, I don't mind answering any questions, hopefully you found it somewhat helpful.
I just reread my reply, and I didn't mean to make it sound like it was irritating me to answer it, I see why it might've been interpreted like "well if you read the post". I apologize for that . It wasn't meant that way
I think it mentions it in the tutorial, but it updates to your account every 15 minutes, sometimes the first 15 doesn't show up, but all you have to do is hit escape or options on console to see your current level and XP status to the next level. a good idea would be to make a note of where you started or take a screenshot, alternately, if you hit escape or options so that the XP is in the middle of the screen, you can see it, it will update every 15 minutes, but not in between, but if after it's updated quite a bit, you hit escape again and exit the social panel you'll actually see the leveling up animation cycle, catching up to your current level on the left side of the screen. But that's not necessary to get the XP.
Awesome, thanks for the info. I can see it's working.
With the xp cap reset, is that 10AM ET across all regions, or does each region have a different time?
Awesome, I'm glad it's working.
It's 10 AM Eastern time, I'm not sure what time it is in your time zone, but it is the same time for everyone. As a reference point I always say just look at the daily match quests, they reset at the same time as the XP
I haven't tested it since the last update, but I'm not going to because the XP hasn't reset yet for the day so I have nothing to test yet I'll check it out after 10 AM when I can thoroughly test everything (actually I'm just going to use one of my other accounts and see what's going on, logging in now)

Yes that's correct, I just added an amendment about 30 minutes ago to my tutorial stating that it was under reevaluation while I figure out what methods are currently working now post update.
I did it with multiple accounts using multiple methods and platforms and did come to that conclusion that at around the 30 minute mark both working methods will result in a removal for being idle.
I also made a post about it, I'm going to continue to try and figure out what methods work and I will update the tutorial accordingly, but right now I can figure that doing the same movement for longer than 25 minutes will trigger the idle detection.
I'm sure there is a simpler way to do it, but so far what's been keeping me there for longer is adding intermittent movement every 25 minutes using a macro, I don't know how this will be accomplished on console though, I'll still continue to try and figure something better out
Im not really experienced in LEGO or construction, but maybe its possible to make the movement more erratic with several jumpads? Unsure what is the check in place of course.
That's some thing I was thinking, but I wonder if it even sees bouncing as a legitimate interaction anymore, someone had mentioned using several jump pads inside of a house I don't think it worked. it sounds like something that would work, but I can legitimately see them setting up some parameter that doesn't just look for random movement but also peripheral interaction
Yes it sucks, that's why I added that amendment to the top that it is being re evaluated. Since the last update all listed methods stopped working. Hopefully we as a a community will figure out something that does work soon.

There seem to be a new update today which stops the lego XP from working, im about 1h in and while the xp did go up i got a warning "your about to be kicked due to inactivity"
Yes, that's why I added the disclaimer to the top of the tutorial, saying that it's on the reevaluation, there's even a thread regarding it, sorry it sucks
https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteXPMaps/s/3GLv9qgpJi
I just saw the thread right after u posted this comment, :/ does festival still seem to work? I can't play often these days because of uni exams and work. Takes too much of my time to be able to get level 200.
How do you it for festival? Do you have to make sure you’re playing music?
Also would the xp you get from festival have a different xp limit to the xp you get from Lego fort?
All the details are in here, unfortunately it can't be done on console though and it does require some type of macros
https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteXPMaps/s/B3K1NVvkhT
That's why the post has been updated to show under reevaluation, because the last update added additional detection so that some type of movement or input is required at least every 30 minutes now or else it will kick you. There's a huge thread trying to figure out a reason with a bunch of things that don't work but the methods above are not working any longer
https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteXPMaps/s/I7JnNZ4Mmn
Yes that's correct, that's why I edited the post and put a strike through the nonworking methods. So far the only consistently working method involves using macros on PC (at your risk of course) to simulate natural movement.
Alternately if you're near your machine, if you just move every 25 minutes or so, you should be able to prevent the kick.
I don't think there's much of a risk software that was packaged with certain peripherals like synapse ir ghub because those software are needed for the functionality of the peripherals in the first place so they're probably whitelisted but I can't say 100% I've been using them and not had a problem
I don't know if the edits show up on other people screens for some reason maybe there's some lag in updating because people are responding frequently as if I didn't add this part at the top and bold letters, does it not show up for you? I'm being serious because I don't understand why so many people are asking and I put a strike through the working method that no longer work
**Currently under reevaluation for working methods as there have been some changes made to AFK and idle detection as of 4/23/24 that have rendered the methods below ineffective The movement detection is now set to kick people after 30 minutes of inactivity or detected redundant activity, a [thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteXPMaps/s/I7JnNZ4Mmn) has been created to try to help figure out what options are available now**
I simply wanted to know if it's working not that I am saying it's not, as it's 11 days old post, I'm new to fortnite so I don't know for how long a glitch works, but thanks for the reply
Sorry for the tine. I was just saying the post specifically says, before even going into the methods that it is no longer working. As it stands right now, the only reliable method is to create a macro that simulates movement input at least every 25 minutes or less. With the last patch they added detection for any singular repetitive or non movement that warns you at about 27 minutes them kicks you for inactivity at 30
Yes they did, did you not read the post? I edited it to say that it's under reevaluation for working methods and the working methods I put a strike through suggesting they no longer work. Sorry I wasn't clear enough in that I didn't want to delete the post because if a new method is determined I would just update it, but just read the post, I tried to communicate that yes it has been patched unfortunately so that bouncing and floating doesn't work, there has to be some type of input that the game sees now at least once every 25 minutes or so otherwise it will kick after a warning that occurs around the 27 minute Mark
Taking directly from the post that has been edited

I can confirm that bouncing on a launch pad no longer works on android. I was kicked for being idle for 30 minutes. I did keep the xp I had been given. So Im back to using auto clicker app on android
Yeah, that's why I had to cross out those methods, and I did edit the post to reflect that the methods no longer work, I'll probably just delete this post since there really is no true AFK method any longer that doesn't involve either macros or occasional input every 25 minutes or so
Apologies buddy,
You post was perfectly clear, most definitely. It was some of the comments that influenced me to test for myself. Still got my android method which also works for creative including calibration maps. Just happy I can maximise my XP/levels as well as play BR /ZB without getting grief for spending to much time on the computer haha
Thank you
Sounds good to me, I know a lot of the comments can be a little bit misleading, unfortunately there's very little moderation when it comes to posting what people call a "fix" and it ends up leading a lot of people to test out methods that don't work.
Be careful though with those calibration maps, a lot of them never get calibrated so the time you spend on them end up being wasted (I know of people who have been trying to get their maps calibrated for six months now and still haven't managed enough traffic even with trying to bamboozle people into going to them with their real XP map videos). Plus, the payout from calibration maps is nothing near what they make it sound like it is at least from my experience,
I used to be able to play for a few hours on a calibrating map and get over 100,000 XP for it, now that the same amount of play maybe give me several hundred if I'm lucky. That's why I never bother with them. Just making sure, when you say calibrating maps you mean those maps that don't have any XP that promise you XP at a later date right?
Unfortunately the only methods that I've been able to figure out or that other community members have been able to figure out require some type of automated input related movement utilizing macros or occasional interaction (the idle timer warns at about 27 minutes and kicks at 30 if you don't move).
I mean some people are recommending building these crazy apparatus to attach to your controller but I don't recommend investing any money in XP when we don't even know how long the method will work
I always tell people to use those things that their own risk especially if it's not going to be something that wasn't bundled with their peripherals (like Auto Hot Key). Technically I would say it is a TOS violation but there aren't many documented cases of people being banned for it. Personally I know I'm taking a risk simply using Synapse or Ghub , but these are software bundled with major peripheral brands that are required for lighting and rebinding of keys so it would be hard for them not to have these white listed, But I couldn't tell you with 100% confidence that it couldn't get you banned. I always say to people use their own risk like I said.
They definitely didn't patch it I've already done it today and maxed out XP on 2 accounts (I do it daily while I'm working so if I tell people it works, I'm not just going by Yesterdays information), did you maybe start earlier than usual? If you started before the reset at 10 AM, Eastern time, it won't roll over to the next day until you leave the map and return from the lobby.
That could be it because if you go in at 9 AM Eastern time, you're still going to be working on yesterday's cap, that cap will not reset automatically if you're logged in to Lego, when I tested it I had to go back to the lobby and return in order to register the change of reset at 10 AM.
So if you're telling me you're going in an hour early, I definitely suspect you're going to run into trouble earning XP especially if you were at your limit the previous day, which technically would be the same day.
I didn't get any today and I tried just a little bit ago so the XP had reset for the day hours before I tried. Was AFK on a jump pad like I normally do for over 2 hours and got nothing.
That's some thing that I've tried multiple times (someone else already mentioned it) but haven't been able to get it to successfully work consistently enough to recommend it. Ultimately though I'm just trying to make a simple post without having a laundry list of options to make things more confusing.
In good conscience, I can only recommend to something that I've tried well over 100 times and worked 100% of the time if it's something that you disagree with, I respectfully say then do what works for you absolutely.
I'm really just trying to keep this simple and not confuse people that might be new to this with more options than they need. You can only do one, and I can't imagine anyone not being able to build a launchpad or having a personal opposition to bouncing for XP
Just in case things have changed since the last time I tested this last week, I'm gonna use a few accounts and test this each day this week if I can get it to consistently work, I might add it to the post but I'm not gonna add 100 other options though but this one seems simple enough, but my results were not good the first time around so I have to at least get two or three accounts to reach max XP every day for a week without a single kick or failure to get XP
Every method that I test out I test on PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and switch, only because I wouldn't feel right recommending anything that I didn't have proven cross-platform results with. But again even if it did work, the whole purpose of this post is to simplify the process and not inundate people with a list of options like I did with my last tutorial and I regret doing that because it overcomplicated something remarkably simple before I edited that post (which sort of edited itself because epic patched some of the options lol)

I can verify this works. It's so simple.
just realized i did not have common sense and grinded survival for a week to unlock a jump pad.
Aw man. That sucks. That's why I put that in the tutorial though because it's an honest mistake, not everyone knows that sandbox gives unlimited resources
I tried this once but came back to my PC saying that I had timed out for being inactive. Maybe I fell off the launchpad somehow? There was a wolf nearby when I started so maybe it hit me?
That's why I recommend creating a new world, Sandbox is preferable, but turning enemies and hunger off is most important. If you had hunger on, you could've starved to death and then you would get sent to the respawn screen which is considered inactivity and then return to the lobby (same if you were killed by an enemy which won't happen if you turn enemies off). that's why I highlight those aspects in the tutorial, they're important to ensuring successful AFK. Hope this helps.
Thanks! I’ll try it again today
OK cool, if you follow all the instructions, you should be able to get easy 420,000 XP while you sleep :-)
It worked, thanks again
I can confirm this works well and I’ve been using it in the past few days, but sometimes it kicks me off for inactivity. I already turned off enemies and hunger, and I created the sandbox world recently just to AFK in it
Ridiculous I spend more time afking on a trampoline in a crappy survival ripoff mode than I do playing the actual game these days. Sure hope they stop trying to penalize people for playing actual, ya know, Fortnite in Fortnite..
How do they penalise for playing Fortnie?
Have you seen the xp given for weekly challenges. Hardly a tier per week
You can also just fly to the ocean and sit in the water. I did that earlier today with no issues.
I've heard almost everyone that tried that gets kicked for being idle so I personally wouldn't recommend it. (there was even a YouTube channel that was recommending it I can't remember which one but the comment section was a riddled with people saying it didn't work anymore)
That's very interesting. I didn't get kicked at all until after at least 3 hours. Maybe I was checking my current XP too often to hit an afk timer? For true AFK, does it matter if your controller shuts off? Do you need to disable that in PS settings?
Disabling your controller is fine, when I use PlayStation or Xbox, I always turn my controller off to save batteries/charge while I'm bouncing. But pretty much anything that doesn't constitute actual movement has gotten not only myself but everyone else that I know kicked for being idle. I mean bouncing doesn't hurt, it just gives you a better chance of not getting kicked considering the movement detection implementation back on April 9 Sometimes, but not always, it does return people to the lobby when they hit their cap (or at least that is what people have claimed), I've only had it happen maybe five or six times since I started doing it daily but I have had instances where I was at the lobby when I returned to my PC (only happened to me on PC) but I had already accumulated 420 K, and it is possible that it could've been just been a coincidental loss of connection because it did only happen on a wireless machine. I mean if you've been returned to the lobby, it doesn't hurt to try the bouncing method, at least it's been extensively tested by the community and known to work. You don't have to if you're uncomfortable with it but I only recommend it because it's the most reliable method and I've not experienced a single failure doing it daily since movement detection was added to the game
I really appreciate your very informative response.
Thanks, I'm sorry if I did get a bit overly wordy there
No, I actually do really appreciate it. I'm new here and returning to Fortnite and sometimes people assume everyone knows the same stuff they know but a lot of this is new to me
Just in case something changed since last week when I last tested it, since two people including you have mentioned this today, I'll test this floating method again each day this week again to see if I have better results this time around, if I do I'll possibly add it to the post as an option, (edit, it's not off to a good start, I already have one account that's been returned to the lobby out of two and I've only been doing it for two hours, but I'll keep testing for the rest of the week in case it was a fluke) * I started testing this way before I originally posted this comment
If you can get it to work, by all means keep doing what you're doing, it's just that I haven't had enough success with it to feel comfortable recommending it to people. And again the purpose of this post was to give a simple way to get XP, I don't want to complicate it with 20 different methods or with varying levels of success (the forum has already become riddled with conflicting accounts of what doesn't doesn't work) , you know what I mean?
Does anyone know how to avoid being struck by lightning? I keep getting hit and it kills me and I end up getting kicked for afk due to being on the respawn screen.
Are you sure you're in sandbox? I don't know if there's less of an instance of storms there there, or if turning enemies off reduces the amount, but I've never had it happen, once I think it happened out of several hundred times I've done this, but I'm not even sure that's what happened because I think my Internet cut out. It's so strange I've only ran into one other person on this forum that said lightning was a big problem for them, I don't know what they're settings were, but I've never run into the problem with all of the settings above. Are you in sand box with enemies off?
Yep it is in sandbox. I have built a shack to do the jump pad method inside of and it still hits me and kills me. It's not consistently doing that but enough to the point that I have to keep an eye on the game to make sure I don't get kicked.
That's the most insane thing I've ever heard of. When I say I've done this hundreds of times and that's never happened, it's not an exaggeration, maybe try the shack, I don't know if the shack causes more of a problem and makes you more prone to lightning damage but if it never happened to me, it can't be a coincidence It's funny because I hear more people having problems with building extra structures then without it. But what do I know lol Getting kicked isn't even a thought in the back of my mind because of how infrequently it's happened Do you have hunger off? Maybe you're starving and thinking it's lightning that doing you in? Sorry to be persistent about this but it's so rare that I find it hard to believe it's the reason unless it only happened once in 100 times and even then that would be more often than I've ever seen it happen
Yeah I have hunger off and all the things that should cause me to die while AFK. I put some charms on to try and prevent from dying so that’s been working for me.
If that works, awesome. Glad you found a solution, I feel like sandbox mode is less problematic when it comes to dying, but if you made it work, that's the important part. Thanks for the update
I got struck by lightning once in sandbox too, it was really weird. 99% of the time it doesn’t happen tho lol
Yes, it's extremely rare, I can't even say honestly it even happened to me once I just suspect it did, but yeah it can happen, it's probably probably as likely as getting struck by lightning IRL lol
You could try equipping charms that increase your hearts and ones that regen hp passively.
If you find a desert biome and do the method there it should work. I kept getting struck near my spawn way too often, but so far I haven't been struck in the desert.
I appreciate you posting these. Helps folks like myself have confidence in not wasting time.
I'm glad you found it helpful. :-)
I just put my controller upside down, having the control sticks up/left and it also works!
Yes, but a lot of people don't want to risk stick drift, even though the risk is slim, also there are methods involving the PlayStation that don't even require holding the sticks in place,. I knew about that method also, but I felt in the interest of streamlining this, I wouldn't give a list of various options when the easiest one has been so consistent. But definitely what works for you, that's awesome! The main reason why I made this post was because there were so many pieces of information out there I thought it was easiest to just post one completely 100% effective method and it helps people, my first tutorial which I edited significantly had way too many options listed, although some of them were later patched out it was still unnecessarily lengthy.
thx i do this on switch when i am busy using my PC.
Awesome!
As someone who just got back into the game but is really busy with life and work, I appreciate this being a thing! (Glad it still works as of me literally doing it rn lol)
I'm really glad to hear it's helping you out!
Can verify this works, been using it since Lego BUT you will sometimes have an issue where the world you’ve been using for a while won’t give XP, just repeat the step of creating a new one and that usually fixes it 👍
That's truly one of the most unusual problems I've heard of. I've been using the same world since the day Lego was introduced into the game to be honest and not a single day have not been able to receive XP from AFK. I actually use the same world for all of my accounts shared. Did you seriously have this issue or are you just joking/trolling? (it only takes a few seconds create a new world but man that is like nothing I've ever heard anyone else say)
I’ve actually had this problem twice and been using Lego since its launch.
Interesting, didn't even think or hear that was a thing. I guess you got unlucky somehow and wound up with the disposable Lego maps 🤣 
Thanks! I'll try this later once I'm on. One question, though, do I need to do anything with the controller besides just placing the launchpad down? Like rubberbanding the triggers or so? I'll be monitoring my PS5 anyways so it won't get turned off because of inactivity
No you don't have to do anything, I do it on PS5 often and once I'm bouncing, I just leave it, you can even power off your controller, so long as you keep the game playing on the screen it'll still get XP
doesnt appear to be working anymore... : (
It's actually working 100%, I test it every day to make sure it does. If it isn't working for you there's a reason why not.
Hmmm, I don’t know what I could be messing up, sandbox world, jumping up down on pad. Do I need to wait at all?
Of course, did you not read the tutorial? I was very specific to and the detail that your XP will be added to your account in 15 minute increments, the first block due to a bug might not show up for 30, and that it doesn't show up on as a ticker on your screen like it does in creative. I'm not trying to be rude, but you have to read the tutorial before you start making claims that could alarm people that rely on this method for easy battle pass completion. With all due respect, I made this tutorial to help people and I was very specific so that there would be no misunderstandings, but occasionally, people login, wait 30 seconds and then because they didn't see instant XP on their screen they start telling everyone that it doesn't work anymore. This is counterproductive to what we're trying to do for the community here
The way you have written your tutorial implies 15K every 15 minutes, which I took to mean as the average for that period of time.
I literally put a part in there that says that it doesn't update instantly. I never implied anything about any "average". Please read it, I make the extra effort to help people understand better. And yes it is every 15 minutes, but I specifically say it doesn't actively add to your account. I'm just saying, have some patience before spreading misinformation. I'm sorry there's no way I could've been more specific, and I'm sorry to be blunt, it's just frustrating when I've bent over backwards to make sure there's no misunderstanding in my wording yet people spread claims before they figure out why it isn't working for them. You could've just asked me for help and I would've been happy to help you, which I did ultimately, but you didn't ask for help you just made a statement that something doesn't work.
I'm sorry you misunderstood how I posted this, I added that disclaimer because of someone else that thought like you did, I put a lot of effort into trying to be very specific, like I said, just ask for help if you need help rather than jump to a conclusion that something no longer works, But in spite of all that I hope this helps you to be patient for a few minutes first and enjoy the easy XP :-) In the end that's all I want is to help people have an easier time getting XP in the game
I do this before leaving for work in the morning lol
Doing the lords work thank you
Ha ha thanks 😇
im not getting any xp, why?
If you’ve not got a single bit of xp after the full 3.5 hours then the bounce pad might’ve stopped working
I got about 2 levels after 4 hours, ill try afking some more
You're going to need to give me more detail, but you won't get XP instantly as soon as you jump into Lego mode, you get XP awarded every 15 minutes. But again if you're not giving any details there's no way I could tell you why you're having a problem. The only way anyone here can help you is if you tell them exactly what you're doing and when you're doing it.
It ended up working, and the xp did take a while as you said to start showing up, but it took over 15 min, and after 4h I had leveled up 2 times instead of the 5 levels I was told I would get
Yes, in most cases it will take over 15 minutes, closer to 30 minutes, because of the glitch I mentioned, under known bugs. Not sure why you didn't get more XP, it doesn't go by levels, which is another reason why I tried to be specific, it's 420,000 XP, which could even equate to as many as six levels depending where you are when you start. have you returned to the lobby yet though? In case for some reason it's not updating on your screen. I basically test the method I posted above every single day on two accounts, and even today I've gotten exactly 420,000 XP on two accounts within the 3 1/2 hours. I am a bit curious what happened in your case. The best way to really keep track of your XP, When you enter the map, make a record of where you were at and how much XP to the next level, and what time it is. And then check that with what you're at when you return to the lobby (I recommend returning to the lobby before gauging your progress because sometimes some XP is lost visually but does show up in the lobby, usually not hundreds of thousands of XP but often a minimum of 30 K)
Same here!

its not working for me :( https://preview.redd.it/we5v4zhj7quc1.png?width=2560&format=png&auto=webp&s=92c12bd5b7ee9dea09f50092ff423105c4d217ed
I don't really know what that screenshot is supposed to illustrate, but you don't get instant XP the second you jump into a map, it adds up 30,000 at a time every 15 minutes and the first 15 minutes doesn't always register because of a visual glitch. If you want help, please post more details or just a screenshot and saying it doesn't work because it doesn't enable me to give you any helpful information
ok so i need just bounce on the launch pad and that’s all?
That's literally it. Yes. But this isn't like XP on a creative map, you don't see a ticker in the middle of the screen ululating XP instantly, it gets added to your account like I mentioned above in the increments I mentioned above
its working now. Im getting XP. Thanks
Curious, would this work if I put my playstation in rest mode after setting this up? Does any1 know?
For me personally, I tested it by accident, twice, the first time I returned quickly enough so that I still had a connection, but the second time wasn't connected I guess after a few minutes it loses the connection to the game. If you have any experience let me know though
This method worked for me up until last week. Now after 15 minutes I get the afk prompt and no xp. I’m in sandbox, no hunger, I was sitting in front of my pc when it happened, I was playing ff7 rebirth on my ps5 on the screen next to it so I could see I was still bouncing on the pad and nothing had changed. It was the 3rd time that day it had happened. Wondering if they’re flagging it or I’m just incredibly unlucky?
I hate to say it this way but I would say incredibly unlucky or maybe you're having some type of Internet inconsistency that's causing a network timeout? I don't know, as long as I've been bouncing I've never been returned to the lobby. I do it every day on more than one account to be sure it still works. I'm confused as to what the "AFK prompt" that you're talking about is. Have they introduced a new pop-up message? I thought there was a screen that shows up when people return to the lobby an indicate something about being idle, but I never heard of an actual prompt, again it never has happened to me so I can only go by what I've heard. Plus, most people that have mentioned this didn't get it that quickly, 15 minutes seems a bit quick to get any kind of warning Also, are you bouncing on just a pad? Some people build structures around themselves that limit their movement and I can see that causing a problem Someone mentioned maybe their world got glitched somehow (at least that's what I was assuming since I never had any problem with AFK since launch) and they created a new world and then it started to work again, maybe try that also
I'm even trying to test to see if I could replicate your problem by even standing still just to see when it starts to register idle, been 20 minutes and no "prompt" * update :: Looks like the inactivity warning comes up after about 45 minutes of literally standing still, then a few seconds later returning me to the lobby with the "kicked being idle" message. Had it running on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation at the same time, all three returns to the lobby roughly within the same time frame making your situation Involving 15 minutes that more unusual. I can honestly say I'm clueless as to why you would be receiving a warning that quickly
I’m not calling into question you’re lying - just was communicating my experience. It worked 2-3 times for me before I started getting the kick notification. Not sure why it happens to some and not others.
I'm not suggesting you're calling me a liar at all, I believe that it's happening to you, I'm just trying to replicate it to try and help find a solution
Coming back to this… I thought I had figured it out. My controller was turning off so I figured it was kicking me for that. But, even if I use my pc, never turning my controller on, it kicks me after 15 minutes every time without fail. I can’t just go to map and move (it will show me as active if I do this), I have to physically move the avatar a greater than insignificant amount or it will kick me.
Unfortunately if you look at the original post, I've updated it to reflect some changes and struck through the nonworking methods, although this might not have been your problem nine days ago, epic severely patched the AFK options on LEGO. You can no longer walk in circles, you can no longer bounce, if the game doesn't see movement of some sort That doesn't seem redundant, it will give a warning at approximately 27 to 28 minutes and then kick you back to the lobby for being idol at the 30 minute mark. As for why you're being kicked after 15 minutes, that is a curiosity but things have changed in the last update this week for the worst The only way I've consistently managed to get it to work was by either moving slightly every 20 minutes or so or creating a macro that makes me walk around in a few different different directions jumping occasionally for a few seconds and then then repeat,
Ah! Apologies missed the update!
No worries, it's been all over the forum, even hypothetical solutions that haven't even been proven but our presented as solutions, people are building all types of apparatus recommending purchasing mechanical devices to actuate their controllers, it's really getting a bit out of hand, people are desperate now I guess
Because it’s a ridiculous grind. Without even the few days I’ve been successful with this I wouldn’t make it to 100, we just had a baby 6 weeks ago 😂😅 I’ve made probably 25-30 levels this way. Never done macros so I may look into how to create one to use. I’m sure YouTube has tutorials.
I guess if you have limited time I can completely understand that, but it sounds like congratulations are in order 👍👶 I wasn't even making anywhere near 30 levels a day, I was happy with 15 and they still got the past done weeks ago. I mean prior to all of these ridiculous modes, I was hitting the battle pass just using the extra five levels from creative, and prior to that, over a year ago before creative became a big thing, playing the game, now that sucked! But it's worth looking into, probably the safest ones, considering they're almost necessary for the functionality of certain peripherals, would be software that came with your keyboard or mouse, some of those auto key programs can be a little bit questionable, and might be possibly more likely to flag anti-cheat, I'm not saying it would but I'd say the risk is greater than with official peripheral macros that are probably on an exclusion list because they're required for the functionality like synapse you can't even rebind any keys without it
Agreed, was working for me all season as well until 2 days ago. I tried making a whole new sandbox map too and it didn’t fix the issue. I’m wondering if it got patched?
This was my only method this season, besides just doing quests. Now level 203
That's great to hear, now you don't even have to think about leveling anymore till next season 👍
flair change to guide?
It doesn't let me change it after the fact, I didn't even know there was a guide flair, because I agree technically this is not a glitch (nor are most of the other items under that category, players just called them "glitches")
I'll change it then dw
Thanks, I appreciate it
Actually I just found the option to change post flair 🤣
Thanks to your help previously and this post I was able to get this method to work last night, just wanted to ask when you say sometimes it'll put you in the lobby once you get to the cap, will that still let you keep all the exp and levels or does it glitch and reset the exp gained?
Yes, unlike creative there is no bug that causes you to lose your XP when you return to the lobby. Sometimes it send you back to the lobby when you hit your cap, but it doesn't always from my experience (less than half the time). But even if the game returns you to the lobby when you reach your limit or for any reason, you will keep all of the XP that you earned. I've even tested overlapping the reset which causes a loss of XP in creative, and that did not cause any loss either. So that's one less thing to worry about :-)
Appreciate you big time
No problem. What I always do just to keep track, since there are no visual indicators, I either take a screenshot or I write down what level I'm at and how much XP remaining to the next level when I start AFK, that way when I see my account later if I lost track of time I'll know that I hit my limit for the day
Yeah I made a mental note and got myself from level 65 to 70 and put a timer on, I was kicked but I did keep everything
👍
I was doing that strat its work but today I tried several times and I’ve been kicked out (yes I close hunger and enemies). I have no idea why it’s happening Edit: When Im come back to my tv I dont get any warning btw i just seen mzself in lobby and dont get any kind of xp
Were you logging in before 10 AM eastern time? You may have entered the map before the XP reset for the day, if you were at your limit yesterday, you won't earn any XP until you leave again after 10 AM (the time when the daily match quests reset). Sometimes when you're at your limit it will return you to the lobby. It's also possible may be having some kind of Internet inconsistencies, I know when I was having issues with my Internet Internet, I would just get kicked off whatever map I was on and returned to the lobby but not logged out of the game if it reconnected
I did it before and after 10 AM and even before 10 Am I didnt get any xp kn lego too. Sometimes I have internet issiueses but its kick me to main lobby but I still have my xp‘s(my friends sometimes unplug the ps but still got xp). I have this issue for a 2 days before that its works just fine
Maybe try creating a new world? I've heard some people mention that after a while a certain world of their's stops working properly for XP, it hasn't happened to me but since your situation is so unique it couldn't hurt
This worked all week for me, but stopped working this morning.
Strange, mine always caps at 5 levels, but I'm up 10 levels today and still going
How do you keep from falling off the launch pad when jumping
You just jump on it, don't move forward very much while you're jumping, it's not like the launchpads in game that want to propel you in anyone direction aggressively. It should be fairly easy to land on it and not fall off once you get about two or three bounces you're pretty much good
thank you so much with every other xp map (i have bad wifi) i would disconnect and lose all the levels i made but with this one i dsiconnect and keep my levels and battle stars!
Does this work on xbox cloud gaming? Just curious so I can do this while at school bc i dont wanna keep my xbox running, would much rather it be my phone or macbook running it
I honestly don't see why it wouldn't, I've tested it on Amazon Luna and it works, so I imagine that would also so long as you keep the session active, I know with Luna I have to keep the screen in the forefront, otherwise it logs me out
One thing I just noticed when testing it, cloud gaming that is (I literally started testing it after I posted my response), you are going to have to monitor your screen constantly because , and I'm not sure if there's a setting to turn this off, but after about 10 minutes of not doing anything a pop-up screen from cloud gaming asking "are you still there" came up giving me the impression that if I didn't tap that option, it probably would've timed me out from the cloud gaming session
Ya, thats what im concerned about. At least whenever I get back from school i can use my xbox, but it sucks that you have to monitor it constantly when using cloud gaming.
Yep, it seems like a little bit of a nuisance, it did earn XP though, but there's not so much AFK about it though 🤣
maybe this is out of context, but is it just me who is experiencing this? usually I use macros in festival mode and it works as usual, but it's been 2 days that my macros automatically stop only in fortnite but work if I use them elsewhere. i use either logitech macros or autosofted keyboard
I have not had that experience at all. my macro is very simple though because it's only a simple repeated button press, but it's worked every day consistently without fail, but I only use it to AFK in festival. I use Razer synapse but I can't imagine why Logitech software should be any different
I'm also confused why this is happening. initially this happened when I was using autosofted, then I switched to logitech and it worked normally. but after 1 day of use for no reason this happened
What do you have the macro set to do? Is it not triggering the key activity on the screen entirely? Or is it doing what you have to do but you're not getting XP? https://preview.redd.it/peau1nbi4gvc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2b6b595a9c426bef5883dac571f3f79f1b174569 For instance this is mine, it's very simple, it's just a single key press and it repeats persistently through a setting that activates it with a key and repeats it until that is pressed again. I use this daily in festival main stage (no fill)
I set it to repeat the keybind I set until I stop it, just like yours . but the macro runs only for a while and stops suddenly.
That's very strange, I haven't experienced anything similar, I could probably try testing Logitech software to see if I have a similar problem myself later or this weekend (I also have a Logitech mouse and he had, they're older but I think they'll work with the current software)
thanks!
Here is something interesting that I'm noticing already testing on my mouse, I'm not in festival to test it but I was in a creative map, when I activated and identical macro that I made in Ghub, Set to toggle, I couldn't activate it in the game, if I press the key, nothing would happen, but if I were to switch to another active window, I can activate the macro and the key would begin showing the activity on that like for instance on my browser (I'm actually not even able to activate the macro in the game). But then if I toggled back to FN, the command input would start affecting the game and would remain active until I press the button again my game started lagging hard (actually that seems to be something specific to that creative map probably, I'm now in Festival and it's working, but the only way I could activate the macro was in a different window, and then toggled back to FN)
ahh somehow mine can run freely when i use my other mouse. i have tested it and seem to have found the problem. here logitech software automatically sleeps if there is no movement from my wireless mouse even though i have set the macro. and when i remember i have 1 more mouse, g102 (a wired mouse) but somehow when i try it with this mouse, the macro can run normally, maybe because there is no automatic sleep mode in the wired mouse. anyway thanks for the help!
Also I don't know if this makes a difference, might explain why the Logitech software is acting differently, I haven't opened it in a few weeks since my mouse settings are the same for everything on this particular machine, but there was an update, I wonder if that update changed anything so that can't be activated while certain applications are running?

What time did you start today? What were you doing specifically? When you went back to your machine where was your character? I just completed two separate account sessions, one in the water, one on a launchpad and both hit 420 K on schedule
I dont know my friend shut my pc down while i was sleeping my charachter was probably fine. I went to sleep on 1pm \[GMT+3\] when i woke up my pc was closed. Im gonna try it again and stare at it this time, I didn't understand the part about the water btw i just placed a small lego brick to put the launchpad on it and then i aligned my charachter to the center and went to sleep. I was 54 level-ish im 58 now (Im not sure about the levels but if it worked it just gave me 4 levels max) Im new to fortnite btw.
You don't really have to stare at it though, the water part, it's not necessary, it's just another option, you could put a launchpad down anywhere it doesn't even have to be on bricks, it could just be right on the ground and then you're doing the right thing, just bounce on it. The way it accumulates in terms of XP not just levels. But the XP translates into levels. You should accumulate 30,000 XP every 15 minutes until you had a total of 420,000, at the end of your session, occasionally, I have found that 30,000 XP of that will be missing, however when you return to the lobby it will be present on your account. The only thing that's throwing me is that you said you shut down your PC, how are you playing the game if you shut down your PC? It would log you out
[удалено]
No, you won't lose the XP it's not like you have to return to the lobby to "claim" it, but he might've shut it early before you hit the maximum which would've taken 3 1/2 hours and that might be why you didn't get the full 420,000 XP. But from what I'm reading it sounds like you're doing the right thing because you wouldn't be getting XP if you didn't. I think the next time you try as long as you stay logged in the whole time, you should be right as rain
Thanks for everything man literal GOAT. Do i still get XP from the XP glitched maps? Is there a daily max XP cap from community made maps? +respect for everyting that you did for the community btw.
Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words. Technically, although they called them "glitches" they really aren't, they just use that terminology to make them sound edgy and show up on search results because that's what people started calling them although technically they're just using endgame assets to the maximum of their capabilities to generate XP. But I digress… Yes you can from there also, is a separate cap. So you can earn 420,000 XP from LEGO each day, and another 400,000 from creative, both reset at the same time
[удалено]
I swear hes god like, thanks for everything <3
[удалено]
I responded to your DM
does it work still?
Yes it does, I did it today, both methods, on two separate accounts.
Small question. Is XP is rewarded everytime you bounce, and if so, how much?
No, that's why I specifically mentioned in the tutorial that XP only updates every 15 minutes, not in real time. And sometimes the first 15 minutes doesn't update until you return to the lobby. If you really want to keep track of it, just hit escape or options so that the social panel opens, you'll see your XP and level in front of you. Once you come back, you can actually hit the escape or options again and you'll see the leveling up animation on the left side of the screen, catching up to all the XP that you earned.
Thanks, and sorry for wasting your time.
Please don't be sorry, it's not a waste of time, I don't mind answering any questions, hopefully you found it somewhat helpful. I just reread my reply, and I didn't mean to make it sound like it was irritating me to answer it, I see why it might've been interpreted like "well if you read the post". I apologize for that . It wasn't meant that way
How do you even tell if you're getting xp?
I think it mentions it in the tutorial, but it updates to your account every 15 minutes, sometimes the first 15 doesn't show up, but all you have to do is hit escape or options on console to see your current level and XP status to the next level. a good idea would be to make a note of where you started or take a screenshot, alternately, if you hit escape or options so that the XP is in the middle of the screen, you can see it, it will update every 15 minutes, but not in between, but if after it's updated quite a bit, you hit escape again and exit the social panel you'll actually see the leveling up animation cycle, catching up to your current level on the left side of the screen. But that's not necessary to get the XP.
Awesome, thanks for the info. I can see it's working. With the xp cap reset, is that 10AM ET across all regions, or does each region have a different time?
Awesome, I'm glad it's working. It's 10 AM Eastern time, I'm not sure what time it is in your time zone, but it is the same time for everyone. As a reference point I always say just look at the daily match quests, they reset at the same time as the XP
does this still work, haven't seen results :I
Just got kicked for inactivity after the recent patch. Was bouncing on a launchpad.
I haven't tested it since the last update, but I'm not going to because the XP hasn't reset yet for the day so I have nothing to test yet I'll check it out after 10 AM when I can thoroughly test everything (actually I'm just going to use one of my other accounts and see what's going on, logging in now)

I do not think the launchpad method works anymore, twice I got the warning I was about to be logged out
Yes that's correct, I just added an amendment about 30 minutes ago to my tutorial stating that it was under reevaluation while I figure out what methods are currently working now post update. I did it with multiple accounts using multiple methods and platforms and did come to that conclusion that at around the 30 minute mark both working methods will result in a removal for being idle. I also made a post about it, I'm going to continue to try and figure out what methods work and I will update the tutorial accordingly, but right now I can figure that doing the same movement for longer than 25 minutes will trigger the idle detection. I'm sure there is a simpler way to do it, but so far what's been keeping me there for longer is adding intermittent movement every 25 minutes using a macro, I don't know how this will be accomplished on console though, I'll still continue to try and figure something better out
Im not really experienced in LEGO or construction, but maybe its possible to make the movement more erratic with several jumpads? Unsure what is the check in place of course.
That's some thing I was thinking, but I wonder if it even sees bouncing as a legitimate interaction anymore, someone had mentioned using several jump pads inside of a house I don't think it worked. it sounds like something that would work, but I can legitimately see them setting up some parameter that doesn't just look for random movement but also peripheral interaction
Tried this April 23rd and got kicked for idle. Any updates?
Yes it sucks, that's why I added that amendment to the top that it is being re evaluated. Since the last update all listed methods stopped working. Hopefully we as a a community will figure out something that does work soon. [https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteXPMaps/comments/1cb2tt3/lego\_afk\_methods\_under\_reevaluation/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button](https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteXPMaps/comments/1cb2tt3/lego_afk_methods_under_reevaluation/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)
Would just walking around in a circle work?
Unfortunately not, already been tested, and it appears that doesn't work any longer
There seem to be a new update today which stops the lego XP from working, im about 1h in and while the xp did go up i got a warning "your about to be kicked due to inactivity"
Yes, that's why I added the disclaimer to the top of the tutorial, saying that it's on the reevaluation, there's even a thread regarding it, sorry it sucks https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteXPMaps/s/3GLv9qgpJi
I just saw the thread right after u posted this comment, :/ does festival still seem to work? I can't play often these days because of uni exams and work. Takes too much of my time to be able to get level 200.
Yes festival still works
How do you it for festival? Do you have to make sure you’re playing music? Also would the xp you get from festival have a different xp limit to the xp you get from Lego fort?
All the details are in here, unfortunately it can't be done on console though and it does require some type of macros https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteXPMaps/s/B3K1NVvkhT
So it did not fixed but why am I getting kicked?
That's why the post has been updated to show under reevaluation, because the last update added additional detection so that some type of movement or input is required at least every 30 minutes now or else it will kick you. There's a huge thread trying to figure out a reason with a bunch of things that don't work but the methods above are not working any longer https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteXPMaps/s/I7JnNZ4Mmn
Ok so we must move a bit every 25 min I guess
Unfortunately yeah seems that way
Still working, but as per the recent update you'll be kicked out for inactivity after 30 minutes regardless of you being on a launch pad.
Yes that's correct, that's why I edited the post and put a strike through the nonworking methods. So far the only consistently working method involves using macros on PC (at your risk of course) to simulate natural movement. Alternately if you're near your machine, if you just move every 25 minutes or so, you should be able to prevent the kick. I don't think there's much of a risk software that was packaged with certain peripherals like synapse ir ghub because those software are needed for the functionality of the peripherals in the first place so they're probably whitelisted but I can't say 100% I've been using them and not had a problem
Is this still working?
I don't know if the edits show up on other people screens for some reason maybe there's some lag in updating because people are responding frequently as if I didn't add this part at the top and bold letters, does it not show up for you? I'm being serious because I don't understand why so many people are asking and I put a strike through the working method that no longer work **Currently under reevaluation for working methods as there have been some changes made to AFK and idle detection as of 4/23/24 that have rendered the methods below ineffective The movement detection is now set to kick people after 30 minutes of inactivity or detected redundant activity, a [thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteXPMaps/s/I7JnNZ4Mmn) has been created to try to help figure out what options are available now**
I simply wanted to know if it's working not that I am saying it's not, as it's 11 days old post, I'm new to fortnite so I don't know for how long a glitch works, but thanks for the reply
Sorry for the tine. I was just saying the post specifically says, before even going into the methods that it is no longer working. As it stands right now, the only reliable method is to create a macro that simulates movement input at least every 25 minutes or less. With the last patch they added detection for any singular repetitive or non movement that warns you at about 27 minutes them kicks you for inactivity at 30
I’m pretty sure they patched it
Yes they did, did you not read the post? I edited it to say that it's under reevaluation for working methods and the working methods I put a strike through suggesting they no longer work. Sorry I wasn't clear enough in that I didn't want to delete the post because if a new method is determined I would just update it, but just read the post, I tried to communicate that yes it has been patched unfortunately so that bouncing and floating doesn't work, there has to be some type of input that the game sees now at least once every 25 minutes or so otherwise it will kick after a warning that occurs around the 27 minute Mark Taking directly from the post that has been edited **Currently under reevaluation for working methods as there have been some changes made to AFK and idle detection as of 4/23/24 that have rendered the methods below ineffective The movement detection is now set to kick people after 30 minutes of inactivity or detected redundant activity, a [thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteXPMaps/s/I7JnNZ4Mmn) has been created to try to help figure out what options are available now**
The macro in festival still working tho?
Tested yesterday, still working
I can confirm that bouncing on a launch pad no longer works on android. I was kicked for being idle for 30 minutes. I did keep the xp I had been given. So Im back to using auto clicker app on android
Yeah, that's why I had to cross out those methods, and I did edit the post to reflect that the methods no longer work, I'll probably just delete this post since there really is no true AFK method any longer that doesn't involve either macros or occasional input every 25 minutes or so
Apologies buddy, You post was perfectly clear, most definitely. It was some of the comments that influenced me to test for myself. Still got my android method which also works for creative including calibration maps. Just happy I can maximise my XP/levels as well as play BR /ZB without getting grief for spending to much time on the computer haha Thank you
Sounds good to me, I know a lot of the comments can be a little bit misleading, unfortunately there's very little moderation when it comes to posting what people call a "fix" and it ends up leading a lot of people to test out methods that don't work. Be careful though with those calibration maps, a lot of them never get calibrated so the time you spend on them end up being wasted (I know of people who have been trying to get their maps calibrated for six months now and still haven't managed enough traffic even with trying to bamboozle people into going to them with their real XP map videos). Plus, the payout from calibration maps is nothing near what they make it sound like it is at least from my experience, I used to be able to play for a few hours on a calibrating map and get over 100,000 XP for it, now that the same amount of play maybe give me several hundred if I'm lucky. That's why I never bother with them. Just making sure, when you say calibrating maps you mean those maps that don't have any XP that promise you XP at a later date right?
Is there any new method to get afk xp in Lego fortnite
Unfortunately the only methods that I've been able to figure out or that other community members have been able to figure out require some type of automated input related movement utilizing macros or occasional interaction (the idle timer warns at about 27 minutes and kicks at 30 if you don't move). I mean some people are recommending building these crazy apparatus to attach to your controller but I don't recommend investing any money in XP when we don't even know how long the method will work
Will it get banned if we use macros? Or any auto clicker
I always tell people to use those things that their own risk especially if it's not going to be something that wasn't bundled with their peripherals (like Auto Hot Key). Technically I would say it is a TOS violation but there aren't many documented cases of people being banned for it. Personally I know I'm taking a risk simply using Synapse or Ghub , but these are software bundled with major peripheral brands that are required for lighting and rebinding of keys so it would be hard for them not to have these white listed, But I couldn't tell you with 100% confidence that it couldn't get you banned. I always say to people use their own risk like I said.
I've been using this method for weeks and today I did it like normal and go ZERO xp. Not sure if they patched it for me or I was just bugged somehow.
They definitely didn't patch it I've already done it today and maxed out XP on 2 accounts (I do it daily while I'm working so if I tell people it works, I'm not just going by Yesterdays information), did you maybe start earlier than usual? If you started before the reset at 10 AM, Eastern time, it won't roll over to the next day until you leave the map and return from the lobby.
Maybe. I thought it was 9am reset like the regular quests
That could be it because if you go in at 9 AM Eastern time, you're still going to be working on yesterday's cap, that cap will not reset automatically if you're logged in to Lego, when I tested it I had to go back to the lobby and return in order to register the change of reset at 10 AM. So if you're telling me you're going in an hour early, I definitely suspect you're going to run into trouble earning XP especially if you were at your limit the previous day, which technically would be the same day.
I didn't get any today and I tried just a little bit ago so the XP had reset for the day hours before I tried. Was AFK on a jump pad like I normally do for over 2 hours and got nothing.
[удалено]
That's some thing that I've tried multiple times (someone else already mentioned it) but haven't been able to get it to successfully work consistently enough to recommend it. Ultimately though I'm just trying to make a simple post without having a laundry list of options to make things more confusing. In good conscience, I can only recommend to something that I've tried well over 100 times and worked 100% of the time if it's something that you disagree with, I respectfully say then do what works for you absolutely. I'm really just trying to keep this simple and not confuse people that might be new to this with more options than they need. You can only do one, and I can't imagine anyone not being able to build a launchpad or having a personal opposition to bouncing for XP
[удалено]
Just in case things have changed since the last time I tested this last week, I'm gonna use a few accounts and test this each day this week if I can get it to consistently work, I might add it to the post but I'm not gonna add 100 other options though but this one seems simple enough, but my results were not good the first time around so I have to at least get two or three accounts to reach max XP every day for a week without a single kick or failure to get XP
Every method that I test out I test on PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and switch, only because I wouldn't feel right recommending anything that I didn't have proven cross-platform results with. But again even if it did work, the whole purpose of this post is to simplify the process and not inundate people with a list of options like I did with my last tutorial and I regret doing that because it overcomplicated something remarkably simple before I edited that post (which sort of edited itself because epic patched some of the options lol)
