Mouse icon changes back?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I have a local script inside starter player scripts which changes the mouse. Although it works for a second after you join it goes back to normal after not very long. Here is the script:

local mouse = game:GetService('Players').LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local icon_id = 'rbxassetid://12325392941'

mouse.Icon = icon_id

mouse:GetPropertyChangedSignal('Icon'):Connect(function()
	if mouse.Icon ~= icon_id  then
		mouse.Icon = icon_id 
	end
end)

how long does it take for it to suddenly change back? It seems to be working fine for me.

edit: I’ve been in-game for around 10 minutes and it hasn’t changed, something might be happening that is also changing it.

I have the same problem, I change the ID and the icon doesn’t actually change.

#4

are you using the source id or whatever it’s called? I’m pretty sure that Roblox changes the ID from what is shown in the browser. But using a script won’t make the change for you.

i tried using it and it worked normally?

I tried both. http and the rbxassetid.

yeah, but roblox has at two ids for images, unless that’s what you’re talking about.

A second or two. Is yours in starter player scripts?

There is no other script influencing this.

#9

It’s inside StarterPlayerScripts, I have nothing else that could affect the script in any way either. Add some print statements maybe and see if it actually changes anything?

#10

it works when I put a 5 second delay, but I’m not sure if this will be good for a laggy device.

#11

I don’t know what could be wrong with the script to be honest? maybe it’s a loading issue or something.

#12

Maybe try putting the script inside ReplicatedFirst?

#13

Could you show a video of your mouse ingame?

#14

what would the video show? it just changed back to the original one after a few seconds

#15

It helps to see it, for me at least.

well my computer has a bit of a glitch right now where my computer restarts when I play a video so unfortunately I can’t.
