Phone players are jumping out of cars against their will

  • Getting reports of this in Jailbreak since last night. Only on phones do players appear to randomly jump while walking around in games. This has only started happening since Roblox went down for 10 minutes last night. It’s causing players to be unable to drive vehicles, since they’re being forced to hop out.

It might not be all phones which I’m finding odd. I personally didn’t have trouble but I’m getting enough reports [ x.com ] that it must be somewhat serious.

Maybe some of the behaviour changed with the mobile auto jump? You could try turning off StarterPlayer.AutoJumpEnabled and seeing does this resolve the issue. I will ask around to see if anyone knows if the behaviour of auto jump has been changed recently.

Can you ask some of them if they’re using DynamicThumbstick in the settings menu? You can tell if there are no joysticks on-screen until you touch+drag.

This is probably due to a bug where the dynamic thumbstick’s jump functionality is active throughout all control schemes.

The previous version of the DynamicThumbstick doesn’t have this issue. If this is an urgent problem I’d recommend replacing the current version of the script with this one.

I just posted this tweet. x.com

Seeing a majority say yes, but not all of them. People are confirming it’s every game not just us.

This is the bug @Garnold mentioned where the DynamicThumbstick jump functionality is always active even when DynamicThumbstick is not the selected input type. I have submitted a fix for this issue, but it will not be released for around 2 weeks. Here is a fixed version of the control scripts you can use in your game until then: ControlScript.rbxm (25.2 KB)
