Weirdly enough, this is for FFlagEnableControlsEmulator

I would assume so, considering that it “clones” the instance, but doesn’t include the children.

As of this update, replication (StreamingEnabled) has apparently just broken, at times completely stopping from streaming-in an area.

Yes, as with :Clone, UniqueId and some other internal properties are not copied where appropriate. It also cannot copy protected Instances like Players and Instances which have to be created in a specific way like DataStorePages.

It’s appropriate to simply think of it as “clone but without the children”.

Note: This has to ship on all platforms before becoming available so it’ll be a few weeks.

Cannot wait for ‘This will not be released to users at this stage.’

never seen in my life a meme in a official devforum post.

If you keep an eye out for the more subtle ones there’s actually quite a few of them out there.

Would there be a brand new service or new methods for the Banning players system?

I mean the astronaut guy is still alive so I guess they might not be

Good question, if it was a service, that would probably be included in the notes but I don’t know, hopefully it’s something as simple as player:Ban() and you’re done with it ngl. The first person to make a ban manager plugin with this is also gonna be mega rich

Right now they are methods for the Players service:

This of course might change though

EDIT: Fixed typo

Oh it’s a method of Players (and not Player?). It wouldn’t make any sense for it to be a method of Player because, how do you unban a player if the player can’t join the game…?

Expected it to be a service though

This looks good, but It doesn’t seem specific within the config parameter, as I assumed it would contain Reason: string and Player: player, I don’t think the Duration: number is necessary since you can just do UnbanAsync when a certain duration ends, however, I thought UnbanAsync would just have Player: player

I remember just a few years ago, Roblox was completely opposed to developers banning. I’m glad that they finally came to their senses!

Engineers get to enter public release notes for the changes they make. Sometimes they enter something like that and the person compiling the release notes misses removing it as not relevant.

Holy shoot. Is this tied to Players or separate service?


This fix was specified earlier in Release Notes 617, word for word.
Does this imply that it’s being delayed?

Yes, it is indeed tied to the Players service.

As for the banning API, how exactly does it work and what results can we expect?

Right now, to “ban” a player we use :Kick() and datastores.

With this API, what’s exactly is going to be different? Can the player still enter the game through the app/website page? Are they informed of the ban only until they join the game?
