Why do I keep having loads of random errors? I'm scared I may have a Lua virus

I currently don’t have that much added at the moment, to be safe, would it be a good idea to just move it all to a new place on studio?

Your game is backdoored, but the backdoor is trying to require a module that has been deleted so it errors.

Can you show us the free models u got and if you find a script in them?

I already deleted them when I realised they aren’t what I wanted.

It seems as though you’re getting erroring instances you should be able to browse. I’d begin by using play solo and taking a peek behind the scenes in the following paths:

  • Workspace.Camera.Folder.Main
  • Workspace.DonationButtons.Donate.ClickDetector. (The scripts name appears to be a blankspace)
  • Workspace.MidnightMeerkat.Head.face.Fix

If you find anything suspicious there, see if you can find them outside of play solo. If you do find something, delete it if possible. If not, it’s most likely one of your plugins at fault. You can try deactivating them one by one, and then playtesting to see if the issues still occur. When the issue doesn’t occur, you found your source!

Are that 3 plugins all your plugins? And again, please show us the plugins’s creators from the Manage Plugins things.

I will edit my first post with the new screenshot of the plugin manager.

The errors with functions seems to me like obfuscated lines of code, loading module scripts also seems suspicious.

Even after disabling all plugins at once, the same error is still happening.

None of the plugin creators are suspicious as they are all known community members. Try checking the paths in your game that are erroring, there might be a malicious model that is loading code.

You can easily browse all of your scripts be searching for “Script” in the workspace search bar, that should do the trick if you’re having trouble tracking your scripts down.

When clicking on one of the errors, it loads me to an empty script with no name and over 400 lines of lines but nothing in the lines.

I’ve seen the same - blank named script but it has an virus in it

Check the bottom scrollbar. If it’s really small, there might be code hidden far to the right of what you’re able to see. Scroll to the right and see if you can find anything.

Guessing this would be it?

Would I simply just delete this?

The most suspicious plugin is that Build v4 plugin. Also, can you show us the scripts from these locations: Workspace.DonationButtons.Donate.ClickDetector,
Workspace.Camera.Folder.Main,
Workspace.MidnightMeerkat.Head.face.Fix,
Model.MainModule

Yes, that’s loading an module script

That should be it, yes. Just delete it.

Consider checking more scripts, there may be more scripts like this in your game.

That is requiring a module, please delete that script.

That’s solved it, it was parented in one of my own parts that I hadn’t created. Thanks everyone for the help, I can’t exactly accept an answer as they all were helpful.
