Assorted Studio Crashes

I’m going to post here whenever I do something that causes studio to crash. I’ll do my best to explain the steps leading up to the crash so Studio engineers can spot any patterns that are occurring. You guys are welcome to post your crashes here as well.

I ran a script and realized it errored because of a backslash at the end of a line, so I reopened the script and left clicked after the backslash. Then studio crashed. I was unable to reproduce again.

Yeah I normally crash when I’m scripting, gets really annoying when I don’t save.

It could be auto-completer, because it started happening more often after that update.

Yeah, I’m going to agree with Dork on this one - the crashes seem to be related to the intellisense feature that was added a while back.

A common one I run into is when I try to type something into the command bar and it crashes.

I’m so scared of the command bar at this point that I write my scripts in Notepad and copy paste them into the command bar.

I take it slow and steady while trying not to anger it. It has quite a bit of a temper.

I want to be able to turn off intellisense I don’t like it
(if possible tell me how)

This is a very useful post! If you guys have anything to add, feel free!

It seems I’m still able to reproduce this one Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub

Yikes, your second repro works.

I have a very large amount of items in explorer, and after running studio for a while the program would freeze for a while when I copied something. Not really related but I thought I’d mention it.

I just crashed from the command bar. About the 3rd time today… I was going to make a thread about it, but I found this one.

EDIT: Studio just crashed once more (I was using the command bar)

I set FilteringEnabled to true and tried to publish to the web, but the publish dialog didn’t load. I realized I had Fiddler open, which often interferes with Studio, so I closed Fiddler and went back to File → Publish, then I got this error.

Was typing in command bar and it crashed as soon as I typed “game.”

Another crash, this time after I typed “or”

Not sure whether what was outputted has to do with the studio crash but I think it does.
This is what happened when I was using a for loop(with the commandbar) to remove certain children from the Workspace.

EDIT: I should’ve known it had to do with the crash since StartProcessException came right after it and when I looked in the memory I saw “Pure Call Error” tied with the exception.

This issue with intellisense crashes has been happening to me FOR MONTHS :open_mouth:

Its gotten so bad that I had to set my Auto Save interval to 1 minute in order to prevent me from losing anything important. I work fast, so 5 minutes of work for me is usually pretty crucial not to lose, especially when it happens so intermittently.

Im too scared to even try writing something into the command bar because of how often it crashes. I’ve ended up using Anaminus’ command bar plugin more often than the built in one. It drives me crazy.

There’s no definite way to replicate this issue. It can happen at anytime, but its not uncommon for me to see it. The one thing I do know, is that its called by the Intellisense feature. Can you guys PLEASE add an option to turn it off? I don’t even need it as I know the roblox API inside and out.

Here are my specs if it helps narrow down an issue.

CPU: Intel(R) Core™ i5-4670K CPU @3.40 GHz
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
RAM: 8192 MB

A toggle for Intellisense is on its way and also some bug fixes for it.

That is cool to hear. Is a bug fix sometimes the Inellisense does not work for things like game.Workspace? :stuck_out_tongue:

Can it also store variables so if I do

w = workspace

w.Pa will autocomplete w.Part?
