To reproduce, set your studio emulator to any phone and run play solo.
The mobile UI elements (jump button, thumbstick, dynamic thumbstick) are way too large on phones. They’re being sized as if the device was a tablet. This started happening maybe a day ago? Maybe after the last release. I went inside the TouchJump module and added some prints to see what’s going on
local minAxis = math.min(self.parentUIFrame.AbsoluteSize.x, self.parentUIFrame.AbsoluteSize.y)
local isSmallScreen = minAxis <= 500
local jumpButtonSize = isSmallScreen and 70 or 120
-- roblox code ^^
-- my debug code vv
local parent = self.parentUIFrame
print(parent.AbsoluteSize.x, parent.AbsoluteSize.y, isSmallScreen)
parent:GetPropertyChangedSignal("AbsoluteSize"):Connect(function()
print("changed to", parent.AbsoluteSize)
end)
and what appears to be happening is that when the PlayerModule scripts are running, the TouchControlFrame is one size, but then changes size immediately after the mobile elements are created.
So this phenomenon happens on every emulated device, not just phones, but it’s noticeably a problem with phones because the mobile UI elements get sized way bigger than they should be for that device size.
Beta features I have enabled:
Aerodynamics
Assistant Preview
EditableImage and EditableMesh
Faster Play Solo
Grass Length Customization
In-experience CSG Improvements
Luau Native Code
New Audio API
Notched Screen Support
Notification Overhaul
Terrain Editor
UIListLayout Flex Features
Updated Roblox Controls
Upgrade Shorelines
Video Uploads
Reproduction file isn’t needed since this happens in an empty baseplate, and the code that handles creating the jump button & thumbstick is inside roblox’s PlayerModules
Expected behavior
The mobile UI elements (jump button, thumbstick, dynamic thumbstick) would be the correct size for phones, such as jump button being 70px instead of 120px
Thanks for the report! Are you still able to reproduce this issue? I tried this on a Mac and I could not get the emulator to show large buttons. If it is still happening, can you post the specs for your computer and the monitor? Thanks!
I can confirm this is happening. I have tried this on different places and i get this behavior in all of them.
As i was filling this out i was goint to say this this happens in every place, but now im experiencing behavior that sometimes it works as intended in certain places where it used to be bugged but is now consistently working as intended in this place only.
Thank you for the report. Based on our testing, this appears to be related to the faster play solo beta. Does disabling that beta mitigate the issue for you?
I can’t reproduce this in my own testing, could you post what beta features you have enabled when you see the bug?
Another possibility is: the fix was implemented in the PlayerScripts (specifically the ControlModule, see the code guarded by FFlagUserResizeAwareTouchControls). If your game overrides these scripts, you will need to incorporate the fix into your forked version.
