Probier mal oben auf test zu gehen local server und 5 player oder so und dann bei wie vielen es geht

#22

Keinem einzigen.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎

I dont think that the head is the issue here. Also he said he needs to support every head. If the head is the issue he could also just make a fake invisible default head to hold the ui

Good idea.

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)	
	plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
		local oh = ServerStorage.Overhead
		local overheadClone = oh:Clone()
		local regionCode = LocalizationService:GetCountryRegionForPlayerAsync(plr)
local placeholder = Instance.new("Part")
placeholder.canCollide = false
placeholder.Name = "fakeHead"
placeholder.Parent = plr.Character
local weld = Instance.new("Weld")		
weld.Parent = placeholder
weld.Part0 = plr.Character.Head
weld.Part1 = placeholder



		overheadClone.Parent = placeholder
		overheadClone.Frame.Value.Text = "Avatar Value: \u{E002} "..getAvatarValue(plr.UserId)
		overheadClone.Frame.Location.Text = "Location: "..countryEmojiTable[regionCode].." "..countryTable[regionCode]
		-- it errors above this line
	end)
end)

just wrote the extra part in. check for bugs

#26

an even better idea is to put the ui into the HumanoidRootPart and just up its y position so it appears above the head. Doing it this way reduces the ammount of new instances being made and at the end parts having to be loaded

#27

certain player packages could break that. The effect to performance that two instances has is negligible.

Same error happening.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎

#29

Really weird error have you tried reopening roblox studio?

#30

Yes, multiple times.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎

#31

Thats really weird ask your friend to try and do the test with 5 players

#32

He did, and it works for him.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎

#33

This bug is really weird. I just loaded in with the same setup and avatar item and it worked for me

#35

Including the “Cheeky” head?‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎

#36

Yes, and it still functioned without any errors

#37

That’s weird…‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎

#38

can you make a screenshot of the cloned overhead inside your character?

#39

That’s the thing, it isn’t there, even though it’s parented to the head. Neither does the placeholder part show up.

Try setting the parent last
