Game randomly crashing. No Idea why

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Recently my game has been randomly crashing and I can’t figure out why. Everyone’s playing the game as normal and then boom, lost connection. I don’t know how to trace where this is happening nor how to fix it. Does anyone know what could be happening here?

#2

Could be either ROBLOX or the player’s wifi or a script looping something that crashes the game…?

It could be plenty of things

#3

I know. This is such a broad question but I just can’t pinpoint what’s causing it. I’ve tried multiple tests, and there are no infinite loops. It’s just gameplay and then boom crash. Is there any tools I could use to diagnose it?

#4

I don’t know any sorry, this never really happened to me well yes but most of the time it was my wifi cutting out for some odd reason but other than that it was not on the game’s side.

I will try to investigate it more

#5

This was happening for everyone simultaneously btw

I came up with something :

  • Insufficient resources: If your game is experiencing high levels of traffic or if you have a lot of complex scripts running, it could be causing your game to crash due to a lack of resources.

  • Network issues: If your game is crashing due to lost connection, it could be caused by network issues such as high latency or packet loss.

  • Bugs or errors in your code: Check your code for any bugs or errors that could be causing your game to crash.

To troubleshoot the issue, you can try the following:

  • Monitor your game’s performance using tools like Roblox Studio’s performance profiler or the Roblox Server Monitor.

  • Check your network connection and try running a network diagnostic to see if there are any issues with your internet connection.

  • Review your code for any errors or bugs that could be causing the crash.

Note i didn’t write all of this, the troubleshoot part comes from my friend shoutout to him :smiley:

What do you mean by “lost connection?”
Assuming you just mean the Server crashes and remains on a Singular Frame, it is likely due to a poorly setup loop.

Example:

while true do
end

repeat
until Something

for i = 1,100 do
end

If you notice, these loops don’t have wait or task.wait in them, without them, they will crash the Server!

If its your connection, Its likely your PC or the Server sending a lot of Data.
