Hey,

Thank you for the report. We have looked into it and have some fixes ready.

No guarantees on the timeline, but these changes should be rolling out in around 2 weeks.

Cheers,

Thanks JadedMacroorganism,

Do we know what the cause of this issue is?

I’m sorry, but we usually don’t disclose details about anti-cheat related issues. All I can say is that it was an incompatibility between their anti-cheat and our anti-cheat systems.

The fixes for this issue have been released with the latest Roblox update (version 0.657).

Please let us know if the issue still persists for you.
