Animator.EvaluationThrottled error shows up when unrelated code gets run

I have been working on a script obfuscator for the last few weeks, and as I was testing the namecall obfuscation (The : in game:GetChildren() for example) these errors would show up:

For reference, the test input is:
print(workspace:GetChildren(1, 2, 3))

So the code does not:

  • Access animation
  • Play animation
  • even do tweens!

But it still shows up!

Here are some samples I made so that others can replicate it:

Also for some reason you need to be in RunTime (Press Play button) to see the errors. When you run the samples in Studio they will function as expected.

still happens till this date, its probaly a studio bug. I dont know the solution but this deserves a bump. Also if u have found a solution already then kindly tell me because i really need to fix this problem.

Well, I’ve discovered over a year that this is caused by Roblox engineers forgetting to comment out breakpoints.

“Solution” btw: "Property "Animator.EvaluationThrottled" is not currently enabled" when printing a Model - #3 by JoyfulFlowerMary
