Roblox silently loses connection without notice or rejoin option

For those who are still able to reproduce, what system are you playing on?

Are most/all of you on a windows machine? :eyes:

Recently, this issue changed from indefinite freezing to massive constant ping. It became good ping + silent kick OR big ping + no kicks.
IDK if this issues are related in any way though.

@GamEditoPro @LegsOmega could you please send me and @PlumJar logs from when you guys had this happen? You can find them in the location specified on this page: https://en.help.roblox.com/hc/en-us/articles/360016022492-How-to-Retrieve-Roblox-Studio-Logs

It says Studio, but Client should be in the same place.

new bug where instead of disconnecting i will have massive ping spikes that will make it look like its disconnecting before the ping spikes, lasts upwards of 30 seconds and goes up to 3k ping slowly, happens every once in a while when playing.

as of yesterday and today my longest playtime has been 20 minutes, my average? about 6 minutes. this is especially egregious in games like rise of nations, which are slower paced and require you to play a longer time. disconnections in games like these essentially just waste your time pointlessly unlike other games where you can rejoin and get back into them quickly.

Hey guys - would you mind please messaging me and/or @PlumJar the country of the impacted user(s), as well as the ISP? We’re wondering if there’s some pattern with impacted users and connectivity to specific datacenters.

After some researching, I believe the issue might be related to my internet connection. I usually connect via Ethernet, but I also have access to Wi-Fi. Unfortunately, the problem occurs with both connections.

As an experiment, I tried sharing my mobile data through a hotspot, and surprisingly, the issue didn’t occur at all. However, using mobile data isn’t a viable long-term solution for me due to the high cost of maintaining it.

I’m not sure why the problem persists with my normal internet connections but not with mobile data. If anyone has insights into why this might be happening or how to resolve it, I would greatly appreciate your help.

I have actually had this happen to a player in my game it seems, I have been getting mass reports of a supposed memory leak in my code, however when looking into the microprofiler I find that it’s actually code on roblox’s end

things like setting the C0 of a joint taking WAY to long

and this happens every frame not just a one off hitch.

Sound as well taking 4ms randomly, as well as music skipping like a scratched CD or something

I know this isn’t related directly to this issue, however these 2 events started happening at the same time which could have some kind of connection. However, these could be 2 totally separate issues.

In the bug report I got the user was frozen like they were disconnected however they were still able to “play” the game
Here is a video they sent in the bug reports channel for my game

Hey there! Is it possible to have this fix attempted on my game, Oaklands? I have been receiving reports from a few players about this in our experience, however I cannot repro this myself. I’m going to attempt to see if I can get a log from a user who was experiencing this issue. Would you be the appropriate person to PM this log to?

Hey @HooferBevelops ,

Apologies – we don’t have any confirmed fix yet. We are hard at work on this issue, though. Thanks to all the contributors of this thread and for those who have shared logs.

Please DM me and/or @asdfiji123 with any logs you are able to gather from yourself/users who experience this issue.

Thank you,
PlumJar
