This is probably common knowledge, even tho I have like 5 year experience in Roblox Studio, I never realized that you could use
RunService.Heartbeat:Wait()
as a way to wait for workspace to load properly inside StarterPlayerScripts. Atleast from my testing on my end this is true, I want to ask, is it a proper way to wait for workspace to load or is there like an official way I cannot discover for some reason?
Does Game:IsLoaded() exist for this exactly purpose.
Also in what scenario will you need to wait for workspace to load
its a client sided script, so probably a loading screen
game:IsLoaded() does not work for me for some reason, and the RunService way is the only way it does it for me, i dont know why.
Its a scenario where i use CollectionService with for loops and it just doesnt seem to load the assets inside workspace for me.
You are essentially doing task.wait() when you run that code. It’s function is not exactly to wait for workspace to load.
nope this doesnt work at all. It works more often with RunService but not all the time, so i might have to resort to task.wait() and figure something else out
Alright nvm, I figured out a way to do it. I just put every single instance that hasnt loaded inside ReplicatedFirst, connected functions and then set the parent to workspace. Such a simple solution.
Basically game:IsLoaded() doesnt wait for workspace so its useless for stuff like this.
Thanks everyone for your replies. <3
