Roblox Studio running wait() loops much faster than Roblox Player?

Asked 496 views3 answers

This problem just appeared in Roblox Studio where all scripts with a wait() went much faster but stayed the same on Roblox Player and this problem came without an update or anything. So I'm pretty confused and after enough publishing and testing in Roblox Player I figured I should just ask about this.

Here are some video examples.

This was recorded with Roblox's ingame recorder since I'm too lazy to edit right now.

this has been asked countless times, short explanation cos im in a hurry.

wait() means the shortest wait amount possible, usually somewhere around 0.033 seconds, this can change and depends on the server/client's performance and delay.

That is rather interesting, are you sure you didnt change the code in between or there are more waits,

I just found the problem, the default wait time in lua settings was set to 0, so I reset all the settings.
