Something within the base chat scripts causes a freeze

This is from the base ROBLOX chat scripts in studio, it freezes it randomly idk why.

Does it still makes the error when you use ROBLOX Player?

I do not actually know what causes this, it rarely happens once in about 100 playtests, It’s a bit confusing…

Actually, i’m pretty sure it happens once I click on “Script Performance”. (testing rn)

Edit:
Yes, seems like resizing the Script Performance tab causes it to do this, weird.

That is really interesting. You may want to move this into studio bugs

hmm… if resizing the script performance tab freezes STUDIO, then it’s probably a studio bug.

Also, is the script stopping other scripts from compiling?

#8

Going to post it in the studio bugs section, and no after about 30-40 seconds it returns to run the game normally.

#9

it could just be a STUDIO bug… but I wouldn’t be too sure about it

#10

This is’nt really that big of a problem anymore, but have you checked your plugins/used any toolbox models? it is unlikely, but possible, that you may have a stray piece of malware somewhere (again, really unlikely, definitely more likely that this is a studio bug)

#11

I know, I reckon it is a studio but, I don’t really know what else it could be since the error throws something about Instance.AbsoluteContentSizeChanged

Tested it on baseplate, try it out for yourself in your free time and tell me if it happens to you.

What conditions are necessary to repro this again?

#14

I did it on a normal baseplate… Nothing happened… could be a malware on the plugin…

#15

It could also be a corrupted studio file. Have you tried repairing/reinstalling studio?

#16

Weird, i’ll just reinstall ROBLOX studio and my plugins don’t seem to have anything wrong I suppose (or maybe they might)

Does it still brings the error?

#18

Sorry, I haven’t done it yet I am busy working on something right now. I will update you guys, oh I also just realized that somehow in my baseplate/game I cloned the base scripts to my ChatService (to edit the default settings for different font), maybe that could be the cause of it?

#19

i doubt it, but it is possible

I believe in resizing script performance it crashes the studio making every script fail as you can see it says line 0 failed but scripts start on line 1.
