My game works perfectly in Studio, but it breaks in game?

[Axmos]

Hello! My game is basically finished, I’ve made game passes, products, several maps and game modes, all that is left are a few touch-ups here and there. However, the main game script, which I have heavily tested, works perfectly in Studio, but when I play it in-game it just stops at the ‘(insert player name) blew up!’ No error in the console. I have recorded some proof to show you.

(Sorry in advance for lag!)

In Studio:

In-game:

Here is the part of the game script I notice it stops at, if that helps:

    assets.ParentChanged.Event:Connect(function(parent)
		potatoHolder = parent
		ReplicatedStorage.Status.Value = potatoHolder.Name .. " has the potato!"
	end)
	
	assets.Exploded.Event:Connect(function(player)
		if player then
			ReplicatedStorage.Status.Value = player.Name .. " blew up!"
		end
	end)
	
	while #getPlaying:Invoke() > 1 do
		local randomPlayer = getPlaying:Invoke()[math.random(1, #getPlaying:Invoke())]

		local potatoHolder = randomPlayer
		
		ReplicatedStorage.Status.Value = potatoHolder.Name .. " has the potato!"
		
		local potato = assets.Potato:Clone()
		potato.Parent = randomPlayer.Character

		while potato.Parent do task.wait() end
		task.wait(1)
	end

	table.insert(module.Winners, getPlaying:Invoke()[1])
	ReplicatedStorage.Status.Value = getPlaying:Invoke()[1].Name .. " didn't blow up!"

	module.RunTime = tick() - gameStartTime

	task.wait(1)

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Edit:
Okay so turns out my problems originate from this line, but every time I remove it or try to replace it with something else, it clones the potato every second.

while potato.Parent do task.wait() end

My guess is that you didn’t stop the while #getPlaying:Invoke() > 1 do function after it’s blew up so it’s a infinite loop

try this

 assets.ParentChanged.Event:Connect(function(parent)
		potatoHolder = parent
		ReplicatedStorage.Status.Value = potatoHolder.Name .. " has the potato!"
	end)
	
	assets.Exploded.Event:Connect(function(player)
		if player then
			ReplicatedStorage.Status.Value = player.Name .. " blew up!"
		end
	end)
	
	while #getPlaying:Invoke() > 1 do
		local randomPlayer = getPlaying:Invoke()[math.random(1, #getPlaying:Invoke())]

		local potatoHolder = randomPlayer
		
		ReplicatedStorage.Status.Value = potatoHolder.Name .. " has the potato!"
		
		local potato = assets.Potato:Clone()
		potato.Parent = randomPlayer.Character

		while potato.Parent do task.wait() end
		task.wait(1)
        break
	end

	table.insert(module.Winners, getPlaying:Invoke()[1])
	ReplicatedStorage.Status.Value = getPlaying:Invoke()[1].Name .. " didn't blow up!"

	module.RunTime = tick() - gameStartTime

	task.wait(1)

Thank you, I will try that now!

Nothing happened, although it makes sense because while loops break automatically according to Roblox, not sure what’s causing it.

[RealingZeeKung (gamer)]

okay from what I understand, the game continues until there is 1 player left?
and the problem is the script stops at while potato.Parent do task.wait() end ?
sorry i’m confused lol

[Axmos]

Yeah, that’s the problem and that is where the script stops.

okay so i think this gonna work now
so basically it wait until the exploded event is fired instead of potato.Parent

assets.ParentChanged.Event:Connect(function(parent)
    potatoHolder = parent
    ReplicatedStorage.Status.Value = potatoHolder.Name .. " has the potato!"
end)

assets.Exploded.Event:Connect(function(player)
    if player then
        ReplicatedStorage.Status.Value = player.Name .. " blew up!"
    end
end)


while #getPlaying:Invoke() > 1 do
    local randomPlayer = getPlaying:Invoke()[math.random(1, #getPlaying:Invoke())]

    local potatoHolder = randomPlayer
    
    ReplicatedStorage.Status.Value = potatoHolder.Name .. " has the potato!"
    
    local potato = assets.Potato:Clone()
    potato.Parent = randomPlayer.Character

    assets.Exploded.Event:Wait()
    
    task.wait(1)
end

table.insert(module.Winners, getPlaying:Invoke()[1])
ReplicatedStorage.Status.Value = getPlaying:Invoke()[1].Name .. " didn't blow up!"

module.RunTime = tick() - gameStartTime

task.wait(1)

Thank you so much, it worked amazingly!
