This is a support category for asking questions about how to get something done on the Roblox websites or how to do something on Roblox applications such as Roblox Studio.
You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:
What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
I want gears to work while play testing
What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
While playtesting, gears in roblox studio just dont work like they should, for example, from the toolbox, i placed a Pistol inside the starter gear, but when i tried playtesting and shooting, it doesnt shoot, nor isnt responsive to my actions. But when i test it in-game, it works fine. What is going on?
What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
I tried reinstalling roblox studio, resetting roblox studio settings, looked for solutions on developer hub and reddit, but all of those didnt work.
After that, you should include more details if you have any. Try to make your topic as descriptive as possible, so that it’s easier for people to help you!
I hope there is a solution to this, because this affects my development severely.
It is most likely because of how the gear was scripted.
The way scripts are executed in a local test environment can differ from how they run in a live server. Some scripts may rely on server-specific conditions or player interactions that aren’t fully replicated in local tests.
hello im back after 11 days, im here to inform you that when i did a test script that will print out “hi” when activated gear, when i clicked left mouse button, or should i say activate it, nothing happened, it didnt print out anything.
So how do i make the gears replicate to local tests? because i dont want to create a whole different testing game to see if my gears work or not.
