When selecting a part, at some point whether it is duplicated or a new place is launched, selection ceases to work for certain parts within a model or the workspace, treating them like “Locked” Objects
We haven’t quite found a reliable way for this to occur but it happens in:
Higher Part count places more reliably.
Duplicating or copying large amount of objects/dense models
Moving large models in Team Create, then undo-ing
Once it starts occurring, newly duplicated parts stop selecting, regardless of the place’s state
This occurs in:
QoL dragger beta and without. In both Team Create and without.
Just the Default CollsionGroup, or setting objects to other CollisionGroups
Newly created places, with items duplicated/copied over.
Note: I have the new Dragger Beta ON and a few other build plugins (visible orbs on gif) though, turning these on or off still has the bug occuring
One workaround we found was to simply turn off CanQuery off of the parts, this enables selection again for the sake of building
This has happened to me too! I haven’t been able to find out what causes it myself, I thought I was going crazy and had to select the part through the explorer to check if it was locked or not, and it was not. But the oddest part was I couldn’t click select the part, I had to drag and select and that would work. Restarting studio fixed it for me, but it has happened twice now total starting 2 days ago.
There is no output, it’s persistent in the place once it starts happening. There could be a output when it starts occurring but without a reliable way to start it up, I have no notes on that
It is both CTRL D and Copy Paste
New parts with insert part in the top bar also produces new blocks with this behaviour, they cannot be selected
Do you have SBS or F3X installed? Could you try selecting the objects with a different 3rd party editing tool the next time it happens? (I suspect this may not actually be a problem in the dragger code and a third party tool also not working would confirm that)
In that case this must be a physics broad-phase issue, so it may take some time to get to the bottom of, I’ve passed it along to the right people to investigate.
Yes, setting CanQuery to False makes it work, and setting it back will break it again. It’s part specific so once a part is ‘broken’ it doesn’t fix itself
To follow up, I can confirm that SBS or other selection based plugins also do not function correctly (And I also presume Raycast based plugins also) These plugins also do not work Resize Align, Gap Fill, Part Picker, Rope Tool)
all parts in the gif have CanQuery On, (and CanCollide, CanTouch, Unlocked)
Turning CanQuery to false does not fix this issues with stravant’s Reflect plugin, or any other plugins that require selecting surfaces, any ETA on a fix for this? It makes a lot of tasks basically impossible with the default Roblox tools.
