need help with a timestop.

Most Simple (to me)

get all players- For Each- If local player should run (Ran by Middle Output)- Add Role- Delay(ANY SECONDS)- Remove Role

[shell kestrel]

get all players- For Each- If local player should run (Ran by Middle Output)

this literally does nothing

this is the exact same as if you had just used Get Local Player

The easiest way to give everyone a role is via a synced event, this has been explained in several help posts, just search something like Role or All

[buoyant quiver]

that method uses more NET, mine basically "Seperates It" for each player.

[shell kestrel]

no, no it doesnt

[buoyant quiver]

yours runs for all, mine runs for each individual player.

[shell kestrel]

Circuits are local, nothing about circuits is synced

If I locally trigger a circuit, you wont see anything happen or change (unless it triggers something synced, like a synced variable, or synced component, or synced event)

[buoyant quiver]

event senders (partically)
event recievers (Also Partially)

[shell kestrel]

You do not understand circuits as well as I do

[buoyant quiver]

i was about to say that i started circuiteering 4 months after my first time playing (0-0)

[shell kestrel]

For Each (Get All Players) running directly into a If Local Player Should Run(Item) does nothing, it is identical to just using Get Local Player
If you have access to the local player anyways when using an Player Add Role chip, that means the input signal is already being executed by everyone (Meaning everyone is already locally adding the role to themselves)

If you do not have a synced signal, and instead are trying to have the local player add a role to everyone, you use a synced event, the easiest and most reliable method

[buoyant quiver]

i've used it my whole rrc (rec room circuiteering) life and my net barely goes up

im self taught

mostly

[shell kestrel]

If Local Player Should Run does not "Change" an execution from local to the input player, it changes the execution based off the input player

If the input player is valid, it will fire Should Run if you are equal to the input player, and Should Not Run if you are not equal to the input player
If the input player is invalid, it will fire Shoul Run if you are equal to the authority under context, and Should Not Run if you are not equal to the authority under context

(Typing took so long because I was writing something and decided I had a better way to explain it)

[shell kestrel]

I've been doing circuits for ~2 years
I'm self taught, I have never used a tutorial or circuit class

[buoyant quiver]

idk, to me its more simple

no more arguing

but

yeah

to me

its easier for get all players --> for each --> etc

[shell kestrel]

Its not "more simple"
It doesnt work, its only going to add/remove a role from the local player in a very ineffcient manor

Doing:

     Loop > If Local Player Should Run (Item)
          Should Run > Player Add Role (Item, [RoleName])```
Is functionally identical to
```Player Add Role (Get Local Player, [RoleName])```

bro tried challenging cryptic

[snow jacinth]

@shell kestrel I’m going to trust you. you sound way more smart

[daring grail]

he is

[snow jacinth]

now I just need someone to test it on

i have nobody 😭

[snow jacinth]

It didn’t work. Maybe I did something wrong, but it says I’m out of network heat

[shell kestrel]

send a photo

[snow jacinth]

ok

i have to get back on rr

there @shell kestrel

[shell kestrel]

i have no idea what is going on there

[snow jacinth]

after the 3 second delay it goes into the event sender

then into the player add role

better?

@shell kestrel ?

[shell kestrel]

your event is recursive, thats why

[snow jacinth]

what

[shell kestrel]

when the event is received, you are sending the event

do you not see a problem with this?

[snow jacinth]

so what do I do instead

[shell kestrel]

after delay > send event

on event receive > add role to local

[snow jacinth]

now I just gotta wait for someone to test it
