Hello.
In the sea of roblox games, there lies a niche for obby games. Specifically difficult obby games. In these obbies, you must use roblox physics and skill to your advantage to beat them. However, there has been a recurring issue that stems from the Roblox physics engine, for ball related parts, that completely screws everything up and makes them wonky. (all games by the way). This has been happening for approximately 1 year and 2 months according to people I’ve talked to. This physics bug affects all platforms, if I recall correctly, other than Windows. That includes:
- Chromebooks (ChromeOS)
- iPads/iPhones (iPadOS/iOS)
- Xbox
- macBooks (macOS)
This physics bug has been hindering the ability for “obbyists” that use different operating systems to successfully progress. Usually, when you try to go around a ball on any OS other than Windows, the physics will bug and it will just fling/launch you. This has been reducing obby performance to physics bugs that are not even their fault, and it is honestly surprising it has lasted this long without somebody reporting it. This has been a huge issue hindering players from performing in obbies stemming from a physics related issue and they cannot do anything about it. Thus, I am making this report. Below, I have gathered a compilation of this specific bug happening on other operating systems, and I will show you an example of how it is supposed to act (on a windows computer) and how it acts on various different operating systems.
(before, how to do it?)
Just go forward on any ball on any device other than Windows.
Here is a video of it on action (this is confirmed to be macOS)
Here is a video of it on action on an iPhone (this is MY IPHONE by the way, when I tried the SAME obby on my computer, the physics were different. This is also the SAME obby right above this post:

Here is a video of it on action on ANOTHER mobile device (iPad):
Here is a video of it on action on ANOTHER macOS device (streamable because the file is too large):

Expected behavior
What is expected to happen
Now, watch when I do the same obby on my Windows computer:
Normal, right? Reminder, this has been happening for 1 year and 2 months.
I want this fixed because this has been hindering the performance for obbyists on other platforms for that long. Again, this has been happening for a while now, and it has been hindering the performance of obbyists for THAT long. I just want it fixed because it has ruined a lot of runs/attempts for obbyists on different platforms. Any feedback on this post is appreciated and thank you very much for taking the time to read this.
(sorry for not following the correct etiquette for bug posting, if I didnt)
