After working on a game, I got an error. What on earth does this error mean?

Hello again!

I was working on a new game when I encountered this error:

Infinite yield possible on 'Players.Player1.PlayerScripts.ControlScript.MasterControl:WaitForChild("DynamicThumbstick")'

After this error popped up, I cannot move.

Does anyone know what this means?

Thanks for your help!

Normally, when you use a WaitForChild, if the object you're waiting for's name isn't correct or used anywhere else in the game, it will return an "Infinite yield possible" notice to let you know that the script will NEVER move on. This can sometimes cause errors.

Did you implement a custom control script into your game? Otherwise, this may be Roblox's error.

I've got this exact error. No custom scripts, just started studio as usual. Very weird...

Very unusual, probably a warning from ROBLOX, to make it stop. Make the script a localscript.

I know everyone says this, but reinstall it. I have just had the exact issue as you and a full reinstall seems to have fixed it.
