Greetings, Robloxians! So, there have been some lag issues for our studio team. Let it be know that the game currently is very high quality which natural does bring in some lag. It’s a a huge lag problem that result it being uncomfortable to play the game due to constant lag and the FPS occasionally drops to an extremely low level. It could be shown right here Lag Showcase.
We did tried a couple of approaches to fix these issues. Them being,
Turning off StarterCharacter
Turning off FirstPerson
Avoiding “While true do” loops
Removing unnecessary blocks
Your advice, help, and tips are incredibly valuable and greatly appreciated, Robloxians!
If you have light poles in your game, and they have individual scripts that detect lighting changes, create a module or a core script to run a single loop to affect all light poles.
Run ‘Script Performance’ in studio on both Client and Server. Find scripts that are killing your game and re-work them as needed.
Avoid loops (While,for,repeat, etc) in loops and so on.
My game utilizes 45 player slots. I’ve found it useful for the UI NOT to be stored in the StarterGui as the server clones & tracks the UI for all clients. I’ve personally found, placing my UI in ReplicatedStorage. Then the client pulls the UI when needed. If the UI requires Server intervention, the Server can also clone it into the PlayerGui.
Removing unnecessary blocks is useful; however, find blocks that contribute lag elsewhere, for example, I have roadways in my game. The ‘CastShadow’ property for such items are disabled because they don’t need shadows.
Rock on brother
