How to start ROJO server without having some unnecessary objects

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

When I connect the Roblox Studio to ROJO, it creates a baseplate for me, how can I connect to ROJO without getting these things?

#2

Without more information and perhaps some screen shots of the explorers it is hard to provide detailed help.

How did you create the Rojo project?

  1. I go to vscode.
  2. I type the command Rojo - Initialize.
  3. I start server with project file.
  4. I go to Roblox and connect to the server then I see a new baseplate

The Rojo Initialize command sets up a defalt project for you and includes a BasePlate part in the project definition so every time you connect Studio to the project it is going to recreate anything that is missing. Try these steps:

  1. Make sure studio is not connected to Rojo
  2. Delete anything you don’t want from the studio project
  3. In VS Code open default.project.json

It will look something like this:

{
  "name": "rojo-test",
  "tree": {
    "$className": "DataModel",

    "ReplicatedStorage": {
      "Common": {
        "$path": "src/shared"
      }
    },

    "ServerScriptService": {
      "Server": {
        "$path": "src/server"
      }
    },

    "StarterPlayer": {
      "StarterPlayerScripts": {
        "Client": {
          "$path": "src/client"
        }
      }
    },

    "Workspace": {
      "$properties": {
        "FilteringEnabled": true
      },
      "Baseplate": {
        "$className": "Part",
        "$properties": {
          "Anchored": true,
          "Color": [
            0.38823,
            0.37254,
            0.38823
          ],
          "Locked": true,
          "Position": [
            0,
            -10,
            0
          ],
          "Size": [
            512,
            20,
            512
          ]
        }
      }
    },
    "Lighting": {
      "$properties": {
        "Ambient": [
          0,
          0,
          0
        ],
        "Brightness": 2,
        "GlobalShadows": true,
        "Outlines": false,
        "Technology": "Voxel"
      }
    },
    "SoundService": {
      "$properties": {
        "RespectFilteringEnabled": true
      }
    }
  }
}
  1. Replace the Workspace block that looks like this:
 "Workspace": {
      "$properties": {
        "FilteringEnabled": true
      },
      "Baseplate": {
        "$className": "Part",
        "$properties": {
          "Anchored": true,
          "Color": [
            0.38823,
            0.37254,
            0.38823
          ],
          "Locked": true,
          "Position": [
            0,
            -10,
            0
          ],
          "Size": [
            512,
            20,
            512
          ]
        }
      }
    },

with this:

 "Workspace": {
      "$properties": {
        "FilteringEnabled": true
      }
    },
  1. Save the file
  2. Connect studio to Rojo and the BasePlate should be no more
