Question

META, WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO FIX DESKTOP EDITOR?

How long are creators supposed to put up with Desktop Editor crashing and making our Worlds inaccessible?

I can create a World, open it, and everything works fine. The minute I add larger TypeScript scripts, Desktop Editor crashes. After that, I can't even reopen the World.

And it's not just me. Multiple creators I know are experiencing the exact same problem on different computers.

We spend countless hours building Worlds, only to have updates and software problems prevent us from accessing our own work.

Instead of constantly pushing changes, how about fixing the problems that are preventing creators from creating?

Meta, are you aware of this specific scripting issue? Is anyone actually working on it? And when can we expect a fix?

Creators deserve answers, not silence.

    Hello!

    Have you tried any troubleshooting steps such as clearing your cache? Your %appdata% folder can have persistent files causing issues for example even with an uninstall/reinstall.
     

    Please make sure you’re reporting any issues you’re having through the developer dashboard and encourage others to submit reports as well.
