[Apex Legends][Arena] each time a round start in arena respawn event is triggered

Related Games: Apex Legends (Arena Mode only)
Issue Description:
Each time a round start in arena respawn event is triggered.
this will also generate highlights for said users

Can you reproduce it (exact steps to reproduce): yes

  1. Open apex legends.
  2. Wait for GEP to register (e.g using Outplayed)
  3. Queue for Arena mode.
  4. Play a whole match of Arena
  5. Inspect the logs
    Result:
    Each time a round starts we are getting reports for respawn
Got Game Event: {"events":[{"name":"respawn","data":""}]}

Expected:
Do not trigger respawn events between rounds

Impact for my app: medium (~11K DAU)
Do you currently have a workaround? No

We will check it anyway, but for now, it should not be a show stopper as you can “ignore” the respawn if it is coming after the round ends.

As far as I know, there’s no event for roundStart/roundEnd in Apex.
Do you have a ny suggestion on how to determine that?

Hey @shir.brass,

Currently arena mode doesn’t have support for the round start/ends and numbers etc.

Regarding respawn - it is fired since the game itself considers the player as respawned when the round starts.
You and all of your team members are spawning into the map / game, so it fires that event.

I can confirm that the Issue is resolved.
