Hi,

I’m not sure whether this is related to a W&B connection issue, but since yesterday my runs have stopped updating metrics correctly. For example in this run [Weights & Biases](https://wandb.ai/khoi-eindhoven-university-of-technology/marl_vizdoom/runs/doom_pitfall_DQN_20260130_001746_20260130_001746_778640), `global_step` stops at around 1.5M steps, even though the training actually runs until 75M steps, as confirmed by the logs.

The code has not changed. A few days ago, the same setup worked as expected, for example: [Weights & Biases](https://wandb.ai/khoi-eindhoven-university-of-technology/marl_vizdoom/runs/doom_pitfall_DQN_20260128_183111_20260128_183111_253728) . Since yesterday, it consistently stops updating after around 1.5M steps. The only thing I did was updating wandb from 0.22.x to 0.24.0

I’ve looked through related issues but haven’t found a solution that applies to this case. My wandb version is 0.24.0.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Update: This is fixed after downgrading to wandb 0.22.1 (and use python 3.11)
