Props menu won't open

Last updated: April 15, 2026

Student can't open or use the props menu even after claiming a plot and selecting create mode.

Symptoms

  • Student has claimed a plot
  • They have the Create menu selected
  • Pressing Build doesn't open the props panel
  • Other build tools may also be unresponsive

Possible Causes

  • UI state is out of sync after a lag spike or reconnection
  • Build tools loaded before plot claim was confirmed
  • Client-side script error preventing UI interaction (check for ContextActionService errors)

Workaround

  1. Confirm the student has claimed a plot and is standing on it
  2. Make sure they're in Create tab, not Play
  3. Click Build button — props should appear
  4. If not working, rejoin the game
  5. If still broken, try Settings > Reset Character
  6. As last resort, join a different server
