Volt

isnetworkowner

Checks if the local player owns a part's physics simulation.

Syntax

isnetworkowner(part: BasePart) -> boolean

Parameters

ParameterTypeDescription
partBasePartThe part to check

Returns

TypeDescription
booleanTrue if local player is network owner

Description

isnetworkowner checks whether the local client has network ownership of a part, meaning they control its physics simulation.

Example

local part = workspace.Part

if isnetworkowner(part) then
    print("You own this part's physics")
    -- Can manipulate physics reliably
    part.Velocity = Vector3.new(0, 50, 0)
else
    print("Server or another player owns this part")
end

Notes

  • Network ownership affects physics simulation authority
  • Use setsimulationradius to expand ownership range
