Character rotates with mouse in-game but not in studio

Whoa that’s a smooth like butter camera
Did you check your game settings?

#3

As i already said, i checked every game setting and tried turning off shiftlock and etc. Even after disabling the custom camera the issue persists.

#4

Do you mind sharing the lines of code in the localscript where the input begins? If the server gives the player that localscript using the PlayerAdded event, a lot of times, starting a test in studio will load you in before that can fire!

#5

Ok i dont really understand, you want to see the UIS input began function or?

#6

If you could do that, and also explain either how the script gets parented to the player, or if it’s a Starter script!

#7

Alright, so basically i use a module for my camera: Over-The-Shoulder Camera System
I also use a custom character loading function (so i can easily swap characters)
On loading a character, i do a loop, to clone everything from StarterCharacterScript to this new character.

#8

When you load the character the first time, are you relying on

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect()
#9

Yes, it basically goes like this:

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
  LoadChar(player, newCharacter)
end)
#10

What happens to the studio glitch if you try this?

local players = {} -- master table, our count of all players

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
  table.insert(players,player.Name) -- player joined, add to accountability table
  LoadChar(player, newCharacter)
end)

Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player) -- this removes accounted for players
  local finds = table.find(players,player.Name) or nil
  if finds then
    table.remove(players,finds)
  end
end)

while #Players:GetChildren() ~= #players and #players == 0 do -- this adds player to master table if they load in early or there's an error
  task.wait()
  local ready = next(Players:GetChildren()) or nil
  if ready then 
    for x, player in ipairs(Players:GetChildren()) do
      table.insert(players,player.Name)
      LoadChar(player, newCharacter)
    end
  end
end

This might help!

Hey, the issue still persists in-game.
I really dont know whats causing it, since yesterday when i playtested, it was fine.
Also, the camera module is in StarterPlayerScripts since i need to load the player settings, when they get teleported from the main place.

#12

do you mind printing when the cameramodule starts user input? You could keep moving the print() up each block until it outputs to find out what’s going on that way!

#13

The camera module starts user input as soon, as i enable it on the client side with the :Enable() function.

#14

I’m assuming the Enable function is called within the LoadChar function? edit woops that was server side lol

#15

The LoadChar function is on the serverside. While the enable function is on the clientside. It fires as soon as the script runs.

#16

Its a bug I believe

#17

That talks about studio permanent shiftlock, while that doesnt happen to me in studio. Instead it happens in the game itself.

#18

Oops sorry, didnt read it fully. I’ll try to fix it and see if it works.

#19

TBH I misread too I was working the opposite trying to fix studio and not in-game… aaaaaaa

#20

Ok so, either im dumb or not.
Locking the camera setting at Classic fixes the bug now.
When i tried it earlier today it didnt work.
Thanks to everyone trying to help!! :grinning:

Ok, after getting this bug again i researched and found out about UserGameSettings.RotationType.
Setting that to Enum.RotationType.MovementRelative fixed it.
