-This is a duplicate of my former bug report because it got closed when I was no longer having this issue, so no longer tracked-
There continues to be an issue on Roblox, although rare, where you can experience the playerlist going away due to a corescript error. You have no way to reopen the playerlist unless you actually re-open Roblox, which disrupts my experience.
This issue does happen multiple times, I feel like it may be as a result of API instability due to the isBlocked possibly being about fetching if the player is blocked, but I would wish there to be handling of this on the Lua side as Roblox’s API services have never been fully stable with a 100% successful response state ever since the introduction of apis.roblox.com. There is always a chance of a random 504 uptime error or just a 500 internal error.
It is more common that it happens when you open dropdowns often, but it can still happen when I don’t, so I am not sure if it is caused by people joining or just cursor being active on the playerlist.
The error above is what happens when the Playerlist dies and gets no longer accessible.
Expected behavior
- I would expect the playerlist to remain usable at all times for when it is needed
