I have a issue with my game.
Its laggy.
Im not sure whats causing the lagg… is there any way we can find out what makes it laggy?
Is it possible to see if it is a script that makes it laggy?
I really have no idea how to understand scripts. I can read a little of it, but I cant make my own.
Is it possible that my game is just too big and thats causing the lagg?
My games name is: CrazyTown- Thief and Poilce (tag edition)
This is in my output… i have no idea how to find all sounds

The developer console allows you to inspect the script activity, memory usage, and more.

I just hopped in and didn’t experience any significant frame loss, so I assume you’re talking about server-side lag, which in this case is very likely to be caused by a script, or possibly even multiple.
I can’t do this myself, but as you’re the developer, you should be able to access server-side logs in-game. If you press F9, you’ll open the Developer Console.
Proceed to the Scripts tab, which will show something like this. If any of the scripts are causing lag, you should be able to see a high activity/rate beside them.

It seems more like the ToolPickupHandler is the issue.
In the Studio Explorer, just type ToolPickupHandler into the search bar, and send whatever code is inside.
local pps = game:GetService("ProximityPromptService")
local distance = 10
local timeToHold = 0.5
pps.PromptTriggered:Connect(function(pp, plr)
local tool = pp.Parent.Parent
if tool:IsA("Tool") then
tool.Parent = plr.Backpack
pp:Destroy()
end
end)
while wait() do
for i, descendant in pairs(workspace:GetDescendants()) do
if descendant:IsA("Tool") and descendant:FindFirstChild("Handle") and not game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(descendant.Parent) then
if descendant.Handle:FindFirstChild("TouchInterest") then descendant.Handle.TouchInterest:Destroy() end
local pp = descendant.Handle:FindFirstChild("ProximityPrompt")
if not pp then
pp = Instance.new("ProximityPrompt")
pp.MaxActivationDistance = distance
pp.HoldDuration = timeToHold
pp.ObjectText = "Tool"
pp.ActionText = "Pick Up"
pp.Parent = descendant.Handle
end
end
end
end
idk what it does… its under nothing… just under workspace
That’s a very big performance tank, lol.
Every server tick, it gets and loops through every descendant of the workspace, which is very expensive.
For now, I’d just change the while wait() do to while task.wait(5) do.
It seems to handle creating proximity prompts for tools so you can pick them up with the prompt, but that was a dumb way to write it.
Make sure your game uses StreamingEnabled, was a huge saver for me.

idk what that is… can u explain pls?
ohh… u made it go back to 0 from time to time… thank you <3
should i just delete the dog? it just walks and barks 
I mean… I don’t exactly know what your game is going for, so I can’t say for myself.
It feels like a hangout game that I’d make back in the day, so you could try replacing it with something else.
its a hangout place if u choose adventurer… if u choose police or thief its a tag game… but i cant fix all script hahahahaha… I will delete the dog it doesnt affect the game
i will tell my kids to test the game if its still laggy
StreamingEnabled is a feature you can enable under the Workspace, which essentially unloads things (on the client) that are outside of a certain range. But it’s generally used for improved client performance, since the server still has to load everything in (unless no clients have it loaded I think).
haha i have been looking for that! so it loads just a little at a time… since the map is kinda big… I will read about it now that i know the name of it
