Same here, it seems to have started happening 3 days ago for me.
Did it work before that?
Maybe it’s a new update that made it stop working?
I’m having the same issue as well
For those currently having this issue and are looking for a solution, I’ve wound up using Quenty’s shutdown system. It is working well for what I need currently, if anyone needs help setting it up until this system can get fixed, let me know.
It’s not too big of an issue, for now i’m just using TeleportToPrivateServer instead of TeleportAsync until this is updated again.
Oh Ok great glad to hear it’s working
This may be a change on roblox end, but teleporting after shutdown no longer works.,

This sounds like a bug. Can someone file a bug report? Please include the placeIds and rough timestamps of when you tried to update
Hi SuperPat,
I’m unable to make a bug report as I’m not a regular. I’ve been using this softshutdown script on Punch Simulator ([UGC] Punch Simulator 👊 - Roblox) since it’s release. I believe 3 days ago it stopped working as intended.
I’ve updated all servers 3 times and all of the times it’s failed to rejoin the players

I’ll make a bug report later today.
I’m able to consistently reproduce this issue, but I can’t get any errors on my end except for losing connection. Here’s a bug report with a place file & placeId.

I’ve improved this code to encompass the following functionalities:
- Players will seamlessly revert to their previous positions after a shutdown, ensuring a smooth transition.
- Players will automatically resume their previous activities and tool selections upon rejoining, maintaining their prior orientation, whether they were sitting, punching, doing pushups, or using any other selected tool.
- For the group of players on VIP servers, they will be redirected to a reserved server (not publicly accessible) during shutdowns to shield them from potential attacks while they are afk.
If you have any comments or questions regarding this script let me know, I’m happy to help.
Create a script within ServerScriptService and copy this into it:
Please be aware that a 3-second pause before teleporting back to the previous location is normal and serves to guarantee the complete loading of all assets.
Note: After you add this script to your game you will need to restart your server twice before you notice this script working. Once to load the script (everyone will be disconnected), second time to test (script should be working, everyone will be teleported back to their previous spots).

This Is A HelpFul Script And It Can Be Good 
It Is A Good Way To Not Lose Players, As You Said. It Is Also Easy To Implement And Easy To SetUp.
This script doesn’t work very well, when I’m alone in the place it works normally, now when there are more people the server simply stops.
This is an issue on Roblox’s end that differs from when this resource was created.
If you rely on SoftShutdown2, please support this report so it may increase the priority of a fix:
