Portions of a map not loading in (stream issue)

[LightningLion58]

I suggest you try loading the map piece by piece.
It would give the clients more time to load and causes less lag spikes than cloning the whole.

It seems that some.portions of your map aren’t loaded at all, so perhaps handling the map piece by piece can solve it.

How should I handle loading maps?

I would store the map in ServerStorage if it is big, if the player needs data like a image of the map, map name, etc I would send it to the client with a remote or have the map image and name display on a surface gui on the server. To load a map I would simply using a ipairs loop, cycle through all models (if the map is split in seperate models) and clone each model one by one with a 1/4 second delay between each clone to the workspace (or where you want the map). Kinda like this. local maps…

(In the thread they use wait(), I assume task.wait() would work as well)
