This is a rather silly project of mine that I have done in my free time. It’s also my first ever Roblox Studio plugin that I have released out in the public.
But yeah, you read that right. This (objectively awesome) plugin allows you to spawn in the viewport right here and now without playtesting, in the middle of Roblox Studio, while your team create crew members are probably being busy bees or something. You can now give them a little spook, confuse them, fly around, maybe wave to them or emote on them; it’s completely up to you.
The character, the animations, the emotes, it’s all replicated to other team create members. They don’t need the plugin to see it, it’s all transmitted directly over the network. And if multiple people get the plugin, you can turn your development session into a hangout or a playground and completely ruin your productivity for the rest of the day (speaking from experience! :')
Just a few notes:
-
The controller is really raw. I’ve never really done anything like that from scratch before so it’s far from perfect. The most prominent bugs are related to climbing, terrain, swimming. You might occasionally get stuck or noclip through the floor.
-
FPS could theoretically slow down with a lot of characters at the same time because we’re transmitting a lot of data. Not significantly, but you should keep that in mind when trying this plugin in heavy places.
Credits:
- First and foremost, this project is a direct recreation of @Chrythm’s Play in Studio plugin. The idea entirely belongs to them and I claim no credit for it.
- Chickynoid - Took some code related to kinematic swept collision and stair stepping logic.
- Vide - UI library used.
