This issue is also occurring to my custom chat system. I use task.defer to capture focus of the TextBox on the next resumption cycle to avoid capturing the “/”. This trick worked as expected up until today.
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(...)
...
task.defer(textBox.CaptureFocus, textBox)
end)
I thought this behavior may have been caused by the SignalBehavior flag, however it persists regardless of whether it’s Deferred or Immediate.
Edit: I realize this has been reported above, but I’ll leave it here in case it’s useful.
It seems like this issue is related to this change regarding user input frame ordering. It seems like the textbox is getting input and capturing focus before the additional input capture is called after the heartbeat step.
It would also explain why this works because the input isn’t being captured next frame.

Also getting very annoyed players at my experience. Parts of my experience depends on TextChatService and I cannot revert back to the classic chat without redoing these portions. Hoping for an update on this soon.

I presume the team will take a look after the weekend is over? A bit weird it’s taken so long for a seemingly major communication bug.

Hi everyone, we’ve identified a fix which should be included in our release next week. The team is also taking steps to ensure this regression doesn’t happen again in the future.

Why was it not already made with the option to turn it off when it was added?

TextChatService is currently opt-in. It is optional.

This can be done using a more suitable method by simply using InputEnded instead. This will not trigger input into the text box.

the / is part of my message too when i send it, so instead use LegacyChatService.

Any updates? Been ~ a week and still doesn’t seem to be resolved.
I’ve also encountered this issue before in studio and in game.
I found the bug earlier and thought a fix would be deployed it is still happening, When can we expect a bug fix.

Studio/Client releases happen regularly on Wednesday, so you can expect the fix to roll out then. I will update in this thread here once the fix is out or if there’s any unexpected delays.

why did it take so long for what should be a simple fix
