Physics Breaks Down When Player Approaches

[faint perch]

As seen in the video below, when I approach an assembly that is under the influence of physics and constant calculations, the assembly starts to glitch out. I tried setting the primary part's NetworkOwner to nil but that didn't seem to work. Any ideas?

is the ship anchored?

im guessing not

[faint perch]

No, it is all welded together

[split cobalt]

so youve got a couple options:

• simulate the ship and waves on the client, so they have near-full control over their own version of the physics, with the server only guiding them where they should be
• anchor the boat, which will make behaviors such as momentum difficult but it will maintain server-authority and not glitch out like that

Okay. Thank you! Will look into these.

If I can find a solution I will close the thread.

id recommend doing the first option, which may make it slightly out of sync across clients but will be easier in the long run to control with less latency

what do you use to adjust the ship to water waves.

network ownership issue

[faint perch]

Yes. Eventually reprogrammed it to be align position as opposed to CFrame, and that seemed to fix it.

alingpos/alignorientation

are nearly always better

than cframe

imo

theyre so good

ive found if u use cframe with renderstep or whatever

it looks jagged asf at lower fps

but if u use alignpos/alignorien
