Reproduction steps:
1. Open the attached “IN-130587” project
2. Switch to the iOS Build Platform
3. Build and Run the Xcode 26 project
4. Run it on an iOS device

Actual results: A “Can’t connect to the server” pop-up message keeps popping-up in the Player and it does not connect to the server
Expected results: The Player connects to the server and no such pop up appears

Reproducible with: 2022.3.62f2
Couldn’t test with: 6000.0.66f1, 6000.3.5f1, 6000.4.0b5, 6000.5.0a5 (Project dependencies prevent version upgrade)

Reproducible on: macOS 15.7.3 (by reporter), macOS 26.2
Not reproducible on: No other environments tested

Reproducible with these devices:
VLNQA00634 - iPhone 15 Plus (MU0Y3QN/A), CPU: t8120, OS: 18.2.1

Workaround: Turn off all code optimizations

Note: Issue reproduces when the project is built with Xcode 26, but not with Xcode 16
