Island Radar

prototype

Paste a Fortnite island code to read its public figures for the day: concurrent players, plays, minutes per player, D1 and D7 retention.

Twelve digits, with or without dashes. The code sits under the island thumbnail in Fortnite and in the URL of its public page.

A handful of days, not one more

Epic advertises seven days of history per island. In practice the Ecosystem API often returns only two, and today's reading is always incomplete. Past that window the data is gone for good, for you as for everyone else.

That is the reason the Archive tool exists: capture those readings continuously so your long curves still exist in six months.

Tool maturity

What this tool does

  • Queries Epic's public Ecosystem API live, with no key and no account.
  • Tells an unknown code, a private island, an island with no data and an API outage apart.
  • Shows the seven daily metrics plus D1 and D7 retention, with the reading date.
  • Marks today's reading as incomplete and derives no variation from it: otherwise every island looks like it collapses each morning.

What is still missing

  • No history beyond the window Epic exposes, most often two days: exactly what the Archive tool is meant to solve.
  • No comparison between islands, and no median by genre (the Benchmarks tool).
  • No alerting: you have to open the page to see a drop (the Alerts tool).

The figures shown come from Epic Games' public Ecosystem API, with no key and no authentication. Epic advertises seven days of history and often returns two.
