To make it work correctly, you need a sourcemap.json file in the root of your folder with a mapping from Roblox paths to filesystem paths.

It is structured like below:

{
  "name": "Game",
  "className": "DataModel",
  "filePaths": [],
  "children": [
    {
      "name": "ReplicatedStorage",
      "className": "ReplicatedStorage",
      "filePaths": [],
      "children": [
        {
            "name": "Modules",
            "className": "Folder",
            "filePaths": [],
            "children": [
                {
                    "name": "Script",
                    "className": "ModuleScript",
                    "filePaths": ["src/shared/Script.luau"]
                },
                {
                    "name": "Script2",
                    "className": "ModuleScript",
                    "filePaths": ["src/shared/Script2.luau"]
                }
            ]
        },
        {
            "name": "OtherScript",
            "className": "ModuleScript",
            "filePaths": ["src/OtherScript.luau"],
            "children": []
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

You create a tree based off your Roblox structure, and then the filePaths map it to the local script path on the file system

If you're using Rojo, this should get autogenerated from rojo sourcemap --output sourcemap.json. If you're using Roblox's file sync beta feature, it currently does not generate a sourcemap so you need to make one manually.
