Tool Welding Causing Teleporting and other Weird Behavior

Bug Reports Engine Bugs

#1

When equipping a Tool that welds parts to your character (such as a second Handle), or you change the welding in some way (such as connecting a Motor6D and removing the default Weld so the Tool is animated), the Tool bugs out completely.

Started getting reports of this today! It wasn’t happening yesterday!

Update: Earliest report so far is 21:00 UTC.

Expected behavior

I expect there to be no behavioral changes when this occurs, with the Tool continuing to function as normal.

Same issue happening in my game too. Just started happening around an hour ago.

Happening on all our tools and players are falling through the map

Yes this started happening at 21:00 UTC. The client-side update was enough to cause this on servers which have yet to restart. Surprised it took this long for someone to post it. But I don’t have permissions to. Thank you for that.

I’m having this issue too! It made my game completely unplayable & I’m losing on CCU :broken_heart:

I really hope this is a mistake and gets reverted quickly

Same here, its very not happy with all the teleport and noclip hackers popping up haha, thank goodness it doesn’t hand out permanent bans on its own! (Roblox should take notes…)

Same thing happening here. I hope this gets fixed, I don’t want to try and fix every tool in my games because of this when there wasn’t even a warning that something would change.

A flag is being reverted now that may or may not be the cause of this issue:

It was turned on in an attempt to fix another issue and may have caused this one. I’m assuming the engineer will post here soon, but doing so on their behalf until they do.

My game is suffering heavily from this issue! The combat is almost borderline unplayable. Roblox please fix this asap!

I am getting the same thing in-game.
Interestingly enough, it seems to make my studio crash whenever I spawn with those tools in my backpack lol. Just completely closes.

We’re having this issue in ‘Da Hood’ too-- Roblox confirmed the issue and said they are working on the fix guys!
