During rides with robopacer it has happened that I have lost the guide (maria or other) and the multiplier bar goes to zero. But in reality I am still in the group with everyone else. Then the Robopacer reappear and my multiplier count is back to zero!!!
I am using the latest upgrade but I have heard other riders had the same issue.
Using Companion combined with Apple TV.

I had the same issue last week and created a post as linked below. A few others have also said they have had the issue. No word from anyone at zwift though

For some reason I cannot link other forum posts, the original post was titled Robopacer Multiplier Ended

Thanks for the reports everyone! We’ve got this flagged up to fix in an upcoming update.

I noticed this morning and again this afternoon that the drops counter is fluctuating. If riding close to the bot the drop count accelerates far beyond multiplier then returns to normal. If following multiplier for drops is normal. This seems to be triggered by dropping behind the bot by a meter or three. I took video and can share with troubleshooting team, just email me. I am getting 100 drops in time I should get 10

Same problems, it no longer marks the distance from Maria and then disappears

Just done a Pace Partner ride that even though I was close to the bot, kept sending me back to zero as though I was outside the range. Happened on different zones, so once at x1.4, twice at x1.6.

Still happening for me. Multiplier keeps resetting because RP disappear for a bit.

Most of my rides are based on working through the various Robopacers. When I teleport to the next, I keep getting messages saying the route is no longer available.It still joins the partner but then they keep disappearing intermittently and resetting the multiplier. I did 40k with Coco today and she disappeared at least a dozen times whilst still in the group. I don’t think I got past the 1.6 multiplier.
My setup is iPadOS on a wattbike which I have used for years.

Happening to me too. Distracting more than anything.

We see the pacer disappears quite often. Result, 10km on watopia waistband, Bernie gone 5 times already and the bonus stays at x1.0. Chat with other zwifters lot reporting same issue.

November 27, 2024. I am also experiencing this issue. I am using the latest version of Zwift, 1.78.0, running on Android 13. I always ride with Maria, last week she was in Tempus Fugit all week, and Sunday was the only day last week that she did not disappear during my ride. Yesterday I joined a ride with Maria on the Triple Flat Loops route and the problem was back. Maria disappeared and reappeared multiple times, then about a half hour into my ride she disappeared completely and did not return.

I am experiencing the same problem, not getting past 1.2. This was obviously not fixed with 1.78. When can we expect it to be fixed?

The ride where I experienced this isn’t counting towards my weekly total. Mentioning it in case it’s not part of the known issue.


I too am experiencing continually the Robopacer dropouts. Extremely annoying, how can you have a pacer group ride without a pacer?! When is the fix coming?
I’m on v1.78, iPad Pro.

Still having this issue. ETA on fix?

Hey all - this should be fixed in game version 1.79, which rolls out in phases this week.
