after sitting on a vehicleseat which is connected to another vehicle and then pulling a tool out, the entire vehicles network gets set to the client, any idea on how i can fix this ( without setting the network again )
set network owner to nil once, it will prevent clients from obtaining ownership
was already set to nil before as i said it happens when a player sits on a vehicleseat and pulls out a tool
odd, does every part in the vehicle have net owner set to nil
yeah im checking the networkos through “Are Owners Shown”
for _, descendant in ipairs(vehicle_1:GetDescendants()) do
if descendant:IsA(“BasePart”) then
descendant:SetNetworkOwner(nil)
end
end
add this too
part:SetNetworkOwnershipAuto(false)
also ipairs and pairs are useless now
nah that didn’t fix it neither its weird
I don’t have a repro place but I would try messing with RootPriority, if this is due to the Tool taking precedence over your vehicles then this could be worth looking into.
If anyone’s curious, here’s what I ended up doing to make it work:
Once a player sits on the chair, I temporarily move their tools from their Backpack into a folder inside Workspace (since network ownership can only be controlled on parts that are descendants of Workspace). Then, I set the network ownership of all the tool parts to the server, and finally, I move the tools back into the player’s Backpack.
If anyone has a better solution, please share it — I’m not marking this as the final solution yet.
Occupant Code :
seat:GetPropertyChangedSignal('Occupant'):Connect(function()
local player = players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(seat['Occupant']['Parent'])
if not player or not player['Character'] then return end
--// here we move all the parts to temp_storage folder
for _, v in ipairs(player['Backpack']:GetChildren()) do
if v:IsA("Tool") then
v['Parent'] = work_space['temp_storage']
end
end
--// here we search through temp_storage folder and do the rest
for _, v in ipairs(work_space['temp_storage']:GetChildren()) do
if v:IsA("Tool") then
for _, part in ipairs(v:GetDescendants()) do
if part:IsA("BasePart") then
part:SetNetworkOwnershipAuto(false)
part:SetNetworkOwner(nil)
end
end
v['Parent'] = player['Backpack']
end
end
end)
You also need to do this for any new parts added to the player’s character or Backpack while they’re seated by just doing work_space.DescendantAdded:Connect(function() . No need to worry about resetting network ownership after the player leaves the seat because it will automatically revert to the player once they get off.
