Automatic Text Capture does not pick up any strings

Reproduction Steps

I don’t think this happens for every game, but for my game, Hospital Tycoon (Hospital Tycoon - Roblox), after clearing all captured strings because of it picking up some strings that shouldn’t be translated, no new strings are captured.

It has been a few days since this happened and the game is active with a few thousand players online at all times. All texts I’m trying to capture have their relevant UI items’ AutoLocalize property enabled. This has happened before, where some strings were not picked up, but others were. Now, no string is captured.

Expected Behavior

I expect automatic text capture to pick up all strings that are displayed for users.

Actual Behavior

The game still has only the strings that I entered manually:

Workaround

A workaround would be to manually add every single string in game, but this is not ideal since there are 100’s of them.

Hello!

We took a look at your table, and saw that strings are gradually re-populating your table again. Our text scraping functionality can be slow at times, and we are actively working on improving the speed of our scraping system so that the wait time between flushing and re-scraping can be shortened. Please reach out if you’re running into any further issues with text scraping!
