Has this ever happened to you?

I made a tool that works fine in Solo (Play Solo option of Roblox Studio) but NOT in normal Play mode D:.

What may have affected the script's functionability between the two :[?

That happens when local script gets ran earlyer than character is loaded. To prevent that you can put wait(1) at begining of script, and if that doesnt work, use my method:

Disable local script.
Make regular script and put it in local script.
Write this in regular script:

wait(1)
script.Parent.Disabled = false

Was _just_ about to make a thread asking for help... Same problem here. I test it in Solo, works perfectly. Then, (don't even try online, did once and it didn't work) if I just test it with Start Server and Start Player, it won't register _any_ event. I tried a simple script, where when you click it prints player clicked. Doesn't work. I have no idea what is wrong with this... Did Roblox try and mess with how the scripts are serverside or not again?

I think it depends on how fast you connect to the game.

I'm not even doing that... I'm cloning a tool from Lighting and forcing the player to equip it. It takes a full 15-30 seconds. I think that's enough time.

Good sir, Play Solo is actually a very useful tool for quickly diagnosing tool scripts ^_^

And then they complain on the forum... FIX MY SCRIPT WUSH WRONG WITH ETT!?!??! IT NO WORKS IN PLAY MODE BUT IT WORKS IN SOLO!!! Choices to try to fix that:

1)USE EDIT INSTEAD.
2)Use BUILD NOT SOLO (Unless build is solo)
3)Reinstall ROBLOX
4)If all else fails, use the forum THEN. Don't scream at us to fix it.


And you little missy, don't doubt others.

Wait... Let's see, first, narb is not a word. I can tolerate noob, but narb is just wrong. Second, last time I checked, edit will not give you an actual player... It will just open up the game in Studio. Why would you rather do that than PlaySolo? With Play Solo, you can actually test scripts that interact with players...

The output only says errors when you are actually using the tool (for me anyway)

1)USE EDIT INSTEAD. --Doesn't make it online.
2)Use BUILD NOT SOLO (Unless build is solo) --You don't even know the difference between Build and Solo and you're raging at us for using Solo?
3)Reinstall ROBLOX --Rediculous and pointless
4)If all else fails, use the forum THEN. Don't scream at us to fix it. --You're the only one screaming.

@Hilarious Put this everywhere in the script: print("WHATEVER")

If one of them doesn't show, you have a little slot to find where it went wrong.

No, that is not how it works.

The script does not run AT ALL, I need to use Play Solo and the Output at the same time to test it.

By the way, Solo doesn't make it online either. You had no right to use --Doesn't make it online. e.e

I COULD FIX ANY SCRIPT YOU THROW AT ME BROSKI. -3-

Did that before even posting here. And nothing comes out. What now? And no I am not reinstalling Roblox, I doubt it's that big of an issue.

Yes that is how it works. e.e'

If one o the prints doesn't show up you know you made a mistake the output didn't pick up because it is correct scripting language, but doesn't fix your script. >3<
