Nem's Backpack Module (BackpackManager)

[pastel stream]

Use parameters for the return in :Wait

[visual shore]

return is needed because params func is only used to assign a variable name to the params

[pastel stream]

No the params is literally the callback function, which contains the parameter names and types.

I got it working perfectly without any kind of return parameter

[visual shore]

show me

[pastel stream]

Well here's Signal+'s updated Signal type:

export type Signal<Parameters = (...any) -> ()> = {
    Connect: typeof(
        -- Connects the given function.
        function(signal: Signal<Parameters>, callback: Parameters): Connection end
    ),
    Once: typeof(
        -- Connects the given function, but disconnects after first fire.
        function(signal: Signal<Parameters>, callback: Parameters): Connection end
    ),
    Wait: typeof(
        -- Yields the current thread until the next fire.
        function(signal: Signal<Parameters>): Parameters end
    ),
    
    Fire: typeof(
        -- Fires all callbacks and resumes all waiting threads.
        function(signal: Signal<Parameters>, ...: Parameters) end
    ),
    
    DisconnectAll: typeof(
        -- Disconnects all connections.
        function(signal: Signal<Parameters>) end
    ),
    Destroy: typeof(
        -- Disconnects all connections, and makes the signal unusable.
        function(signal: Signal<Parameters>) end
    ),
}

It does contain a few typeof, which is just a little trick to get comments/documentation for the functions.

Oh wait nvm

It's right that for Wait and Fire you can't just put in the function, and you have to use a seperate parameter.

That's frustrating

I really want there to be a better solution.

[visual shore]

I hope in the new type solver there will be some sort of things like that, the actual is really limited for example for this, Idk how their signals are internally type annotated but we'll see how it goes 👍

[pastel stream]

Yea it's very weird how their internal typing works. It seems weird that they have to complicate things with 2 different methods of typing. Their internal one has also supported way more features for a while and still does... weird.

[visual shore]

The day you can comment typed properties, methods.. they will cook

[violet comet]

OP

FIRE

[worn mirage]

how do i show tool tips

[violet comet]

hover your mouse over the tool

[worn mirage]

doesnt work

[violet comet]

does the tool have a tooltip??

like in the properties

[worn mirage]

oh how do i do that

oh wait

i thought tooltip meant it just showed the name

[bronze arrow]

well its a "tool tip"

[violet comet]

Just go in the properties of the tool and change the tooltip

[worn mirage]

im so stupid sorry guys

[worn mirage]

how do i destroy a tool without it breaking the module

[woeful rose]

Destroying a tool shouldn’t break the module

[worn mirage]

nvm im pretty sure i know why

[woeful rose]

is it something on your end?

[worn mirage]

yea i started the backpack in a script in the tool i was destroying

im so smart 💔

[woeful rose]

I was considering adding a warning if you start the backpack in a script that is not in playerscripts or replicated first

[pastel stream]

When DevForum post? This could do well.

[worn mirage]

devforumn full of haters

[pastel stream]

Yea that's true.

You can get a few helpful replies though.

[woeful rose]

I was planning some time in the summer because the thing is with a devforum post is people might have issues sortly after a resource has been published or even discover some bugs and I don't want to be working on this while I'm busy with school work

[lucid charm]

this is amazing

[fallow ivy]

this is really really awesome

one suggestion is auto expanding tool tip box, which supports new lines. would be cool!

[woeful rose]

new lines arent really supported for tooltips

[fallow ivy]

https://gyazo.com/0847a14b127f441d0ea47e48403fe647
Cool!

[worn mirage]

you can just do automaticsize tho right?

[unique moss]

"Tool is not in locaplayer's control"

what does this mean?

[woeful rose]

You attempted to pass a tool into a function that is not parented to the backpack or character

An example of this is if you try calling BackpackManager:Equip() on a tool that is in the workspace

The backpack cannot act on these tools because it would cause replication issues.

[rugged bobcat]

whats a tooltip gng and how do I use it 🙏

[worn mirage]

go to ur tools actual properties and you can set it at the top

[inner moth]

What was updated on the March 29 update?

[woeful rose]

#1311159199148933150 message

It was last updated March 30th

[woeful rose]

That's probably localized for your timezone

[inner moth]

Does it have stackable tools in the same slot

[woeful rose]

no backpackmanager doesnt natively support that you would have to program that yourself using the api

#1311159199148933150 message

I've mentioned how you could do it in the past.

[inner moth]

how can I disable the back pack icon, and have no way for the user to open the overflow backpack ?

so only the hotbar is seen,

[woeful rose]

Backpack:DisableInventory()

Next update I was planning to add a function to disable the backpack icon

[inner moth]

also does drag and drop a tool into the workspace work? when I drag it , the slot icon moves , but then it goes back into the slot,.. the tool has drop enabled

[woeful rose]

but still allow the inventory to be opened

[woeful rose]

you need to program that in using the .DragEnded signal

I believe I had an example from a few months ago

[inner moth]

ok..

also why do you recommend putting it in RS , instead of StarterGui?

[woeful rose]

because scripts may potentially reset in startergui

which any type of reset may break the module

[inner moth]

how are your requiring it, and getting it into StarterGui... I am using this but then ur code errors out

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local LocalPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer

-- Get the BackpackGui (ScreenGui) from ReplicatedStorage
local backpackScreenGui = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("BackpackGui")

-- Find the BackpackManager ModuleScript inside the BackpackGui
local backpackManagerModule = backpackScreenGui:WaitForChild("BackpackManager")

-- Require the BackpackManager module
local backpackSystem = require(backpackManagerModule)

-- Based on the user's example context (BackpackScript.StartBackpack()),
-- attempt to call a StartBackpack function if the module provides one.
if backpackSystem and type(backpackSystem.StartBackpack) == "function" then
    backpackSystem.StartBackpack()
    print("InitializeBackpack: Backpack system started via StartBackpack().")
else
    print("InitializeBackpack: BackpackManager module required, but StartBackpack() function not found or is not a function.")
end

[woeful rose]

Make a script in StarterPlayerScripts then require the backpack and call .StartBackpack()

[inner moth]

[woeful rose]

The backpackmanager gui isnt in playergui

[inner moth]

that is your code

[woeful rose]

Where is the BackpackGui screengui

because that is supposed to be in startergui

but the actual localscript that calls startbackpack is supposed to be in StarterPlayerScripts

And also if your character doesn't load then you may get that warning

[woeful rose]

that is supposed to be in startergui not in replicatedstorage

[inner moth]

you said put it in R S....

[woeful rose]

I said you can put the module there

but not the actual screengui

ill add clarifications

[inner moth]

oh

DOH

Maybe an example place that is editable would cut down on my silly config questions... just bare bones ..

[woeful rose]

There is an example place

Which is uncopylocked

It’s posted at the top of this resource

[inner moth]

ah.. way down below the api...

thanks again, I am going to play around with it more

[inner moth]

when do you think ur next update is coming?

... drag and drop would be sweet... 🙂

[woeful rose]

It won’t add much but probably in a month or a week

Right now I’m busy with finals so I don’t have too much time

[inner moth]

ah ok.. focus on school

[rotund saddle]

I get this error when an item is repeatedly being dropped and picked up quickly

[woeful rose]

That’s weird, it may be caused by a race condition. It will be fixed next update

[rotund saddle]

:D

Its just when you forcibly try to break something really lol

[woeful rose]

I wonder what else you can break

[rotund saddle]

Not really sure what I did

[woeful rose]

oh I see

[rotund saddle]

for some reason this can show even after you close the inventory

For only about a second tho

When you close inv and then hover to item

[woeful rose]

Oh I see why this happens

I think? lol

Most of those bugs can be easily fixed but I hope non of them caused the module to fully break or become unusable

[rotund saddle]

Something is really messed up for me rn I think

But idk what it is

Will have to record ig

Cuz no errors but its acting weird

[woeful rose]

Ye record it

[rotund saddle]

https://medal.tv/games/roblox-studio/clips/khz7iMpHRkHqM43Eb?invite=cr-MSxMdkosMzg5MDM2ODA

All I am doing is clicking (NOT HOLDING CTRL)

And idk why its acting like that

Some of them work fine but others are being moved and snapped around weird

[woeful rose]

I wonder if it thinks you’re dragging for long enough

[rotund saddle]

I am just clicking idk

And its consistent cuz I can't recreate it with the 2nd slot

[woeful rose]

Are you able to recreate it in-game at all

[rotund saddle]

Is your demo game up to date?

Or should I just upload to mine

[woeful rose]

Yea it is

[rotund saddle]

Alr then I will try it there

How am I switching the spots of 2 slots?

Is that a feature?

[woeful rose]

Swapping?

[rotund saddle]

yes

[woeful rose]

yes that is a feature

[rotund saddle]

Hows it work

[woeful rose]

You take one slot and drag and drop it over another slot and they will swap places

[rotund saddle]

Great I recorded bug and it wasn't even recording roblox

[woeful rose]

yummy bugs

[rotund saddle]

Can't seem to recreate the swapping issue I was talking about

But I think its the same related thing

https://medal.tv/games/roblox/clips/khzhu4jaHNZZ1g5V4?invite=cr-MSxxSk0sMzg5MDM2ODA

And I think its due to what I am doing here

Dropping the item while dragging it and such

I am just clicking in this too btw

Aye got it now

[woeful rose]

Alrighty if you can post more videos of any more bugs you find I’ll fix them when I have the time

[rotund saddle]

https://medal.tv/games/roblox/clips/khzkMruLJ7n9pAZco?invite=cr-MSxUeDYsMzg5MDM2ODA

Same as other just more lol

[woeful rose]

But I think most of those bugs are caused by the animate feature

[rotund saddle]

I mean their changing spots when they shouldn't be so idk

Actually I think I see wym

[woeful rose]

Ye so there’s a small delay with executing code in some cases when the animate feature is on

So when swapping tools, moving them or anything when the animation is finished I usually check if the tool still exists

[rotund saddle]

Should be able to connect to ToolDropped and end the dragging ?

[woeful rose]

No so if the tool is deleted from the tool slot while dragging the “slot” just gets deleted

But it’s not the actual slot it’s just a clone of it

The real one is unaffected and is just invisible

[rotund saddle]

Ah

[woeful rose]

Though thankfully most of those bugs do not break the entire module and are just animation based bugs

[rotund saddle]

Epic

Yeah couldn't get anymore issues

[woeful rose]

I really wish I could figure out what causes this but it seems to like only happen in studio sometimes

[rotund saddle]

Its same thing in the demo game tho?

[woeful rose]

It is?

[rotund saddle]

Seems like it?

[woeful rose]

You replicated it by clicking once right?

[rotund saddle]

Yeah these are all single clicks

And without holding ctrl

Looks the same as that Studio one

[woeful rose]

Okay I’ll investigate when I have time

[rotund saddle]

There does seem to be a scaling issue with the inventory

On small devices it can be pretty bleh

like this

It looks like this on my phone but not as bad lol

[bronze arrow]

pairs?

[rotund saddle]

https://tenor.com/view/pears-gif-1955784132095701629

pears

pairs and ipairs are not needed anymore

But doesn't make difference if you have them

[bronze arrow]

you save 2 seconds of time by not typing them

[bronze arrow]

ipairs might make a difference

since it stops at nil and some other behavior

but ye GI ftw

[woeful rose]

That’s the only device where that can happen so I’m not too worried

[woeful rose]

And you could always make it a tad bit smaller on smaller devices

[pastel stream]

It does

Generalized iteration is faster.

[pastel stream]

These are my benchmark results:

local array = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}

return {
    Runs = 10000,
    
    Functions = {
        ["ipairs"] = function()
            for index, value in ipairs(array) do
                
            end
        end,
        ["pairs"] = function()
            for index, value in pairs(array) do
                
            end
        end,
        ["next"] = function()
            for value in next, array do
                
            end
        end,
        ["Numeric"] = function()
            for index = 1, #array, 1 do
                local value = array[index]
            end
        end,
        ["Custom numeric (while)"] = function()
            local length = #array
            local index = 1
            while true do
                local value = array[index]
                
                if index == length then break end
                index += 1
            end
        end,
        ["Generalized"] = function()
            for index, value in array do
                
            end
        end,
    },
}

Generalized is the most clean and the 2nd fastest. If you really want optimization, then next is slightly faster.

[rotund saddle]

Does this not work?

[fallow ivy]

measure it with real work under each array

[rotund saddle]

Anyways use whatever you want

[pastel stream]

Oh lol I didn't know. I don't know how I got to that conclusion then.

[pastel stream]

Shouldn't make a difference.

It would only make it less reliable

I should only measure the loop itself.

Not any logic inside

[pastel stream]

Not true.

ipairs has its uses.

pairs is absolutely useless though indeed.

[woeful rose]

Isn’t pairs just a bit faster?

[rotund saddle]

depends on what you doing

[pastel stream]

No it's slower

[woeful rose]

Most of my expensive iteration just does i = 1, number

[pastel stream]

next is the fastest, but I recommend generalized.

[pastel stream]

Oh noes

Look at my benchmark

That is one of the slowest options

[woeful rose]

I heard that was one of the fastest iteration methods

[pastel stream]

Yea it's not

It's only used for counting

For iteration it is slow.

Just do

for index, value in someTable do
    
end

[woeful rose]

I’ll change that up next update

[bronze arrow]

interesting seeing next at the top

[rotund saddle]

Because test was unfair

[bronze arrow]

?

[rotund saddle]

this

Would be correct

[bronze arrow]

index missing?

[rotund saddle]

Was just index vs index and value yea

[opaque plover]

this is so sigma

saved

[pastel stream]

Here's a new test where next includes index and value:

[bronze arrow]

why is next cooking tho

[violet comet]

When i die the inventory stops working

cant equip tools

[woeful rose]

Where are you calling .StartBackpack() from

[violet comet]

starter gui

[woeful rose]

Does your gui have reset on spawn on by any chance?

[violet comet]

idk

[violet comet]

no its off

[woeful rose]

So my assumption to what’s going on is that whatever script you are calling startbackpack from is being reset or deleted

Which is why I recommend creating a script in starterplayerscripts and starting it from there instead

[violet comet]

okay i will try that

[last dirge]

is this a plugin? wat is that

[bronze arrow]

boambomber benchmarker I think, he also modified it cuz it was a bit buggy

[pastel stream]

Yessir 😎

[frank wolf]

is there any way to make the UI scale instead of Offset? On PC it looks great, but on Mobile it is wayyy too big

@woeful rose is this possible with some setting by any chance or will we have to manually change everything to scale ourselves

[woeful rose]

Apologizes, the next update should hopefully address this. For now you could try changing the inventory’s size if on mobile to be smaller

I will say though typically modern mobile devices do not have screens that are that small

[frank wolf]

thank you!! 🙏

[frank wolf]

that was using the iphone 14 device, this is what it looks like on an actual phone for ref

[frank wolf]

i took this screenshot on my phone (iphone 15 pro)

[woeful rose]

Mmm okay I’ll add code to manually shrink the inventory UI in cases like this.

Apologies again

[woeful rose]

Version 2.1

• Bug fixes
• Update documentation to add documentation on settings
• Adds new settings: ShowBackpackIcon, ShowInactiveHotbarSlots
• Adds LocalScript that starts BackpackManager

Documentation: https://nem999.github.io/BackpackManager/home/

[frank wolf]

@woeful rose is Version 2.1 the one where the backpack's UI is fixed for mobile since this is the next update, all good if not just wondering

[woeful rose]

Yes, if you import the latest screen gui into your game you should notice there is a new LocalScript.

This new LocalScript changes the size of the UI to be bigger on TV screens and smaller on small mobile screens

It also starts the backpack for you

[frank wolf]

I see that now many thanks!! 🙏

[woeful rose]

@rotund saddle If you have the time could you see if you're still having dragging issues on the latest version?

I think I found what was causing it

[rotund saddle]

Errm I gues

I can't cause anything

not working anymore

[woeful rose]

What's not working anymore?

[rotund saddle]

the bug

https://tenor.com/view/happy-catto-cats-gif-2693509101423175460

[woeful rose]

Oh thats good

If you come across anything else be sure to let me know

[violet comet]

can we make stacked items in this? @woeful rose like a mining system and we can have multiple ores inside one slot.

[woeful rose]

[acoustic cave]

good module

[maiden tulip]

Hey whats this testing software used just curious, I want to try some of my own code on this

[pastel stream]

Boatbomber's benchmarker plugin

It's paid.

[pastel stream]

Have you made a DevForum topic about this yet?

[austere pendant]

Rarity displays and tooltips please 😮

[woeful rose]

wdym?

[rotund saddle]

rarity displays 😭

[austere pendant]

Uncommon, Common, Rarities like grow a garden or other games possible mutations of items

[rotund saddle]

That’s your job to add 😃

This is just a reskin / remaster of Roblox’s backpack system

[trail linden]

Fr

Thats not what this module is for

[woeful rose]

^ This

The module has all the tools necessary for you to add custom features like that

[pastel stream]

when are we getting this level of smoothness? https://www.roblox.com/games/14042191576/Inventory-UI

[visual shore]

easy to do when you don't give mobile and console support

[pastel stream]

do it then 👀

[visual shore]

smoothness is not more than just know how to animate

[pastel stream]

But yes of course mobile and console support adds complexity.

[pastel stream]

There's a lot of things going on there. More than it might just seem like at first glance.

[visual shore]

ngl didn't see it, I'll look at it when I can

[pastel stream]

Here's the guy's showcase video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-MSuSDVEIg&ab_channel=Dino

[woeful rose]

My inventory UI was designed to be flexible, modifiable, intuitive and feature all of the features of a normal backpack system. Which means full controller, mobile and VR support. While I agree people definitely have better skills than me at UI design I also made the choice to design a UI that fits into most games so I didn’t go overboard with the animations and whatnot. The biggest advantage backpackmanager has over others is that if you don’t like something you can likely change it

[pastel stream]

Yea it was kind of a joke. Not really an easy task nor the goal of your resource obviously.

[frank wolf]

Bug: The first time you force an item into a Player's Character (so in their hand) with a full hotbar, and their backpack is closed, it'll show the "Equip" Frame on it. However, every time after this happens (Until the player resets) this won't happen. Video attached shows what I mean and is explained with my voice as well

[rotund saddle]

Def a bug lol

There was a bug similar to that in the past

Highlight should not appear on tools that are in the backpack if the backpack is closed of course lol

Seems like it should be an easy fix

[bronze arrow]

yea cuz it fixes itself after the first time

[rotund saddle]

Exactly

[woeful rose]

Yeah thats a bug I'll look into it later today

[woeful rose]

revolutionary fix

Version 2.2

• Fix visual bug

[rotund saddle]

This is huge update

[woeful rose]

@frank wolf if you can confirm that the bug is fixed that would be nice

[frank wolf]

has the roblox model been updated since that's how i normally got it (idk how to do from github)

wait nvm found it on github

ok ill check mb

[woeful rose]

yes the model always gets updated

so you can go to that or to the github for the latest release

[frank wolf]

from my testing the issue is fixed thank you for the help!! 🙏

goat furret

[woeful rose]

[woeful rose]

Version 2.2.1

• Fixed random error
• Fixed some drag offsetting issue
• Changed how large and small screens are detected (before only mobile screens could get the small inventory layout now small VGA monitors can get the layout)
• Created devfourm resource: https://devforum.roblox.com/t/backpackmanager-a-customizable-plug-and-play-backpack-system/3957165

Do you have a game that is using BackpackManager? Let me know!

Special thanks to @pastel stream for making the icon (he really cooked with it)
And @rotund saddle for doing a lot of early testing

[rotund saddle]

o oke

😎

[frank wolf]

my games use BackpackManager
https://www.roblox.com/games/78699621133325/Meet-People-Across-The-World
https://www.roblox.com/games/110570058234582/Meet-People-Across-The-World

mb the links look similiar but its cause theres a normal + 18+ version of the game (its a social game)

[woeful rose]

Oh that’s awesome has it been working well with your players?

[frank wolf]

yes it works perfect, the only issues being what's i've previously reported (mobile size issue, selected icon still showing) but you've fixed all of them so it's perfect

[frank wolf]

super minor but noticed this in the .rbxm for Version 2.2.1, but you have PlayersService.LocalPlayer twice in the BackpackScript Local Script

[woeful rose]

Yep, that is intentional

The line checks if the LocalPlayer exist if not then it waits for one to be created then it will go to the next or which will be the LocalPlayer

[frank wolf]

o ok, may I ask why add the :Wait()? I've always just done local LocalPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer, I've never had to to use :Wait() for that. Has it errored for you sometimes without the :Wait()?

[woeful rose]

:Wait() yields until the LocalPlayer property in the Players Service changes but GetPropertyChangedSignal doesn’t return anything which is why we need the extra or

[frank wolf]

o sorry i meant like why add the entire line PlayersService:GetPropertyChangedSignal("LocalPlayer"):Wait() at all not just the :Wait()

like I would just use
local LocalPlayer: Player = PlayersService.LocalPlayer
instead of
local LocalPlayer: Player = PlayersService.LocalPlayer or PlayersService:GetPropertyChangedSignal("LocalPlayer"):Wait() or PlayersService.LocalPlayer

[woeful rose]

ohhhh that’s because if the script is ran in ReplicatedFirst there is a slight chance the script will run before Roblox has created a LocalPlayer

[frank wolf]

oo ok that makes sense thanks

[inner moth]

IS THE ABOVE ADDED TO THE LATEST OR NEXT RELEASE, TO WAIT A BIT TO GET THE LOCALPLAYER GOING.. i HAVE SEEN THAT A FEW TIMES IT IS GOOD TO PAUSE A BIT TO LET THE CLIENT GET GOING FIRST.

OR SHIZZLE CRAPS OUT.. SOMETIMES

[woeful rose]

It’s always been in the latest release

[visual shore]

@woeful rose localplayer is going to always be there

[woeful rose]

I believe a couple of years ago Roblox had in their documentation that scripts in replicated first could have a nil LocalPlayer but that does not to be the case anymore?

[visual shore]

I think that is not really a problem now and even if you try to run a localscript in replicatedFirst it is going to be there as a localScript cannot run for a player that does not exist yet

[woeful rose]

Yeah this was removed a little bit ago and I was not aware

This is what Roblox staff said about it recently

[woeful rose]

Local scripts don’t need a LocalPlayer to run

[ocean moat]

I love you!

[visual shore]

what a stupid thing to worry about ngl, why do they make this so hard to predict lol

[frank wolf]

a setting i recommend is "ShowToolNumber" which toggles whether or not the number for tool slots shows
its very easy to do without tho just need to set TextTranspenarcy on ToolNum to 1

also a setting that disables players being able to click/select backpack items entirely (but also can be done by turning off Interactable on Button)

also Perform is misspelt (It says Preform)

[woeful rose]

I believe the function :SetSlotEquipable does this

[woeful rose]

Yeah, I was thinking of something to disable some internal behavior of the backpack but I'm just unsure how I should go about implementing it

[ocean moat]

is there a way i can reduce the size on phone? Maybe like 25% smalle, its huge @woeful rose

[woeful rose]

In the settings there should be a setting called icon scale you can set it to like 0.75 if you want it to be 25% smaller

[ocean moat]

where do i find this setting

is this a new version?

nevermind it seems i had the older version

[woeful rose]

Yeah it’s in the newer version

I like how this still gets updates

[frank wolf]

cause its goated

[haughty basalt]

Is it possible for other tools to use viewport only and others text only?

[woeful rose]

Yes, use the :SetViewportEnabled() function on your target tool

[undone rock]

h

[haughty basalt]

is there a way disable the tweening animation? nvm i found it

[violet comet]

does this system have a max inventory size

[woeful rose]

like max tools that can be in the inventory at once?

if so no

you could practically have infinite but i wouldnt recommend that for performance reasons

the module tries being very cautious with iterating through the entire tool list though

[violet comet]

yeah like you can only have 30 inventory slots or smth

[woeful rose]

no, you can have an infinite amount

[violet comet]

can i make it limited tho

Not infinite

[woeful rose]

yea you can

[violet comet]

what happens when i pick up something and i have reached max? will it not let me pick up

[woeful rose]

there is not artificial max set by the module

the only max there are is max hotbar slots and in that case they would just go to your inventory

[violet comet]

does that mean i get infinite tools in the inventory because i do not want that

[woeful rose]

yes, it would mean that

[violet comet]

i can just modify your system

[woeful rose]

and if you do not want that you simply just do not allow your player to pick up more than a certain amount of tools

theres not really any need to modify the system for that

[violet comet]

OG

OH

thanks

i understand this now

[haughty basalt]

Is it possible for the items to have amounts like this?

[haughty basalt]

I kinda added this

[haughty basalt]

found a bug

[woeful rose]

are you on the latest version

[haughty basalt]

I tried testing the one from toolbox

[woeful rose]

Did you make any changes like implementing custom behavior?

[haughty basalt]

Its straight from the toolbox, and setting viewports setting to true.

[woeful rose]

Oh the viewport setting? Hmmm I can test that out today

[woeful rose]

So turns out this is because line 1190 is grayed out

just remove the grayline and that should fix it

I forgot why I grayed that out i was probably tired or something

I'll release a fix prob later today

[fast solar]

is this still maintained?
