this module doesn’t work with meshparts?

 local zoneModule = require(game:GetService("ServerStorage"):WaitForChild("SimpleZone"))
local zone = zoneModule.new(script.Parent)

zone:ListenTo("Player", "Entered", function(player)
	player:RemoveTag("StikeableByLightning")
	print(("%s entered the zone!"):format(player.Name))
end)

This print snothing when i enter the zone.

Hi, you forgot to call zone:BindToHeartbeat()

if i use bindtoheartbeat, how will it be more performant than zone plus?

#288

BindToHeartbeat actually just registers the Zone into a RunService.PostSimulation loop which all other zones use, it’s the same system ZonePlus uses

I decided not to change the name since:

  1. It’s pretty clear what it functionally does
  2. Backwards compatibility :V

Your zone module seems to be inaccurate for meshparts. zoneplus is much more accurate… is less simple zone more accurate for meshparts?

yeah but it cost lil bit more perf and took alot of memory (zoneplus had some memory leaks there) over simplezone/lesssimplezone

Hi, SimpleZone and ZonePlus both use getpartsinpart for meshparts… can you share a video of the issue? I’ll see if i can replicate it

Here is a place file showing what I am talking about. You might need to go to different parts of the dome to see the difference clearly which is why I’ve added in a magic carpet.

Hello, I can replicate the issue. I’ll see whats causing it and will be pushing an update if I can fix it

I have been able to work around the issue by using a smaller dome within that dome as it seems your module just makes a slightly larger zone than zoneplus. EDIT: i had to use maths because neither zoneplus nor simple zone was sufficient.

Hi, it seems that this is because ZonePlus uses .Touched, via this chain of function calls:

Create .playerEntered in constructor → Calls ZoneController:_registerConnection → Calls Zone:_formTouchedConnection → Calls Zone:_updateTouchedConnection → Connects to zonePart.Touched

Honestly I don’t really know how I’d fix this other than also using .Touched, but I don’t really know if that is ideal

Hi, this is an issue with SimpleSignal version 68 and below, please make sure the SimpleSignal dependency is at version 69 by updating it or downloading the latest SimpleZone release

I dunno if I’m gonna put it on Wally since because I do all development on Studio it’d require me to port the module to typescript (iirc) for current and all future updates, which I honestly can’t be bothered to do :skull:
