Icons? Sweet!

So, how exactly will Might not hurt to tell game developers that it might be a good idea to set the network ownership of any kill brick or similar object. work out? Will it act like the warning prompts you get when using WaitForChild without a timeout parameter for over 5 seconds? And if so, how often will the warning appear?

Normally in games, developers just puts a brick down and uses a server-side Script to break the joints or affect the health of the characters that touches it. Even the kill bricks in the Obby template place works like that - so just to be sure, I don’t hope the abovementioned behavior is what’s being planned.

nice, glad to see AllowThirdPartySales getting support

[Maximum_ADHD]

Oof, that description shouldn’t have shown up. Sorry for the confusion. Without elaborating on the specifics, there was a bug that allowed exploiters to intentionally move kill bricks into other players.

If there is a part that should never be directly manipulated by a player (beyond physical interaction), it’s in your best interest to call Part:SetNetworkOwner(nil) on the part in question so that clients can never gain ownership of the part under malicious circumstances.

I assume only for non-anchored parts?

[devSparkle]

You can’t set NetworkOwnership on an anchored part.

[Maximum_ADHD]

Correct.

Plugin sounds™ back without using SoundService:PlayLocalSound()?

Oh boy, will I finally no longer need hacky workarounds?

[Asleum]

Really excited about these, however they don’t seem to be enabled yet. I’m getting this error when attempting to use any of them :

Simple repro : save this short script as a local plugin

local s = Instance.new("Sound")
s.SoundId = "rbxassetid://1839547655"
s.Parent = game:GetService("SoundService")
plugin:PlaySound(s)

Just wanted to let you know. Will this get looked into, or is it just that this feature is not yet ready for release ? Thank you !
