No matter what realm I am in, since the patch today (06/04/2024), using the Travel to Respite button on the map causes the game to crash. I have submitted the bug reports generated by UE5 and told the game to restart. Apparently it's broken no matter what realm you are in as well as stated. Please fix ASAP as that's a major thing used in game to go "home". Thanks a lot Inflexion!
Did you have multiple realm portals open? See my bug report: https://playnightingale.ideas.aha.io/ideas/BUG-I-399
For me the issue started occurring after I built three portals and all of them were open as of travelling to a realm and then returning before any of them are closed.
After 5ish minutes, the portals autoclose (you can re-open them) and then I can travel to respite as normal.
Confirmed; the only way to get back is at launch choose travel to respite, otherwise it crashes every time.
