Only errors I get involve plugins, and I get occasional infinite yield possible warnings for the gamepass scripts
It doesn’t crash when you play test in studio?
id have to try that, ill let you know the results
After going AFK for 40 minutes in studio, nothing happened. Only notable thing was my chat script timed out after 20 minutes
That is very likely the culprit. As I mentioned. This error happens when there is an infinite loop in a script, and roblox studio will catch that if it freezes for 10 seconds. However, I am not sure that protection is in live games, meaning that this error will instead freeze your game forever
I assume that chat script is custom? Could you show it, well the error seems to be around line 162
Here you go:

end
end
end
Here is the issue
This while loop runs forever since the only possible index is 1 (the length of tipmessages is 1). Since lastMessageIndex2 will be 1 after it ran once, it will try to get an index different than 1, but will never succeed, because the only possible index is 1
The reason why it happens after about 20 minutes is because:
MessageDisplay.Value is possibly false, wait 5 minutes
It prints a sysmessage, wait 5 minutes
It prints a tipmessage, wait 5 minutes
It prints a systemmessage, wait 5 minutes
Tries to print a tipmessage, but gets stuck in that infinite loop

what can I do to fix this? I didn’t make this script, so I don’t really understand
An easy solution is to add another tipmessage, otherwise, you can improve the code like this:
while wait(300) do
if MessageDisplay.Value == true then
if deb then
deb = false
local _sysmessages = table.clone(sysmessages)
if #_sysmessages > 1 then table.remove(_sysmessages,lastMessageIndex1) end
local randomIndex = math.random(1, #_sysmessages)
lastMessageIndex1 = randomIndex
local randomMessage = _sysmessages[randomIndex]
TextChatService.TextChannels.RBXGeneral:DisplaySystemMessage("<font color='#00FFEE'>" .. prefix1 .. randomMessage .. "</font>")
else
deb = true
local _tipmessages = table.clone(tipmessages)
if #_tipmessages > 1 then table.remove(_tipmessages,lastMessageIndex2) end
local randomIndex = math.random(1, #_tipmessages)
lastMessageIndex2 = randomIndex
local randomMessage = _tipmessages[randomIndex]
TextChatService.TextChannels.RBXGeneral:DisplaySystemMessage("<font color='#FFFFFF'>" .. prefix2 .. randomMessage .. "</font>")
end
end
end
Replace the loop with the one above
Ohhh so the issue was there was only 1 tip message?
Well, in part, but I’d say mainly the code having a while loop that is vulnerable to infinite execution (which was triggered by having only 1 tip message)
