Camera not going to player on run of studio

Mashmello_06 · August 4, 2022, 10:47am

Hello! So basically when I press the “run” button, this bug occurs.

I’m just trying to playtest my game, and I can’t since its broken.
Basically after clicking the “run” button in studio, my custom loading screen kicks in (Works as intended) then after it disappears it should be the camera of the player. But its a random view of the world, then after a couple of seconds the camera goes to the player, and all GUI that is meant to run when a client joins the game just voids and doesn’t function.
I’ve tried restarting studio multiple times, restarting my computer, disabling scripts, and removing the loading screen. Nothing I’ve tried is working. I haven’t inserted any malware, I’ve written all scripts by me.

Here are some photos:
Photo 1

Photo 2

In Photo 1, that is what is seen as soon as the loading screen goes. Then photo 2, is the player. (The character takes forever to load, idk why)

Honestly it’s pretty hard to diagnose the problem here since you provided us with absolutely 0 code, but I assume it’s because your game has too many parts and it takes an extremely long amount of time to load them all.

As ramdoma said, please provide us with some code so we can assist you further with your problem.

It may be an issue of you not spawning the player.

Minhseu123 · August 4, 2022, 4:17pm

No need to put player on first parameter when firing a remote event. When .OnServerEvent fired, the first parameter will always be the player who fire the remote event.

Sorry I didnt mean to reply to you

Make sure the CharacterAutoLoads property is enabled in the Players service.

Thanks for your help, for storing a lot of the big structures that are useless in the game, it all works now! Plus it probs didn’t help since there is roughly 200+ mesh/decal trees.
