help with dragdetectors locally

[modern phoenix]

I want to make that dragdetectors are handled on client side for optimization. what i know is that i need to check the RunLocally value and i need to update the position in a local script based on mouse position but how can i make the drag smoother like how it is on server, cause there u can change the dragstyle making it appear smoother.

make the player as the network owner when they start dragging the part

local part = script.Parent.Parent
local dragDetector = part.DragDetector

dragDetector.DragStart:Connect(function(plr)
  -- !!!
    part:SetNetworkOwner(plr)
end)

what? didnt know this was a thing, what does it do?

[rustic oasis]

it makes the players handle the physics for the parts they own .. in other words they will have 0 ping while moving the part.

yo its me on my other account. So basically when i pick up a part with drag detector, it has 0 delay because it happens on client but it gets replicated on server too with this method right?

[rustic oasis]

Yeah

[rustic oasis]

just try the script and you'll see the difference.

yea i just tried u goated

is it good for performance too?

or should i try to make that the part gets replicated on server every like 15 frames

I don't think you can control when the parts get replicated ( easily* )
it's good for performance, even roblox use this method automatically when you touch unanchored parts
