When it occurs, the bug prevents you from knowing where you have to be next. This is a major bug, as you won’t know where you have to be despite knowing the actual tasks. This guide will solve the problem with a simple solution that will make your life easier.

Skate map bug fix

The map bug can happen when you’re about to start a new challenge. Ideally, the challenge will begin, and a spot on the map will be highlighted. You’ll have to be physically present at the place to start and complete your tasks. But the bug prevents that from happening, which means that you’ll have to guess the spot randomly. This is simply impossible to do, and here’s what you can do instead.

  • Go to the Social tab from the main menu.
  • The Social tab allows you to invite and play with your friends.
  • You can also choose to spectate someone else who is currently live.
  • You can also teleport to that player’s location.
  • The Teleport option will make you spawn to where your chosen player is present, and fix the map. If you open the map, you’ll find the highlighted area. While the area might be far from where you’re situated, it’s still a piece of mind to know where you need to be.

Once done, you’ll have to travel to the spot and continue with your missions. There’s another bug that can happen and interrupt your mission progression. There’s a fix for that as well that you can try out. The map bug fix mentioned here also doesn’t require you to restart the game, saving more time in the process.
