"MoveTo" lagging when another player gets close

I’m using the code below to render the movement of an NPC along a path X, as if it were a tower defense on the client. However, every time a player gets close, the nearest NPC stops moving.

local minion = tycoonModel.MinionsInWorld[minionName]

    if not minion then return end 

    local CurrencyPoint =  replicator.Spawner.SpawnerExit.WorldCFrame.Position
    local OldPoint
    local WaysLIST = {}
    local Path = 1

    for i,waypoint in pairs(tycoonModel.MainItens.ConveyorBelt.Path:GetChildren()) do
        WaysLIST[waypoint.Name] = waypoint.Position
    end

    local Animator = minion.Humanoid.Animator
	local Animation = Instance.new("Animation")
	Animation.Parent = Animator
	Animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://14777263766"
	local AnimationTrack = Animator:LoadAnimation(Animation)
	task.wait()

	AnimationTrack:Play()

    minion.Humanoid:MoveTo(CurrencyPoint)
    
    minion.Humanoid.MoveToFinished:Connect(function()
        if CurrencyPoint == WaysLIST["Goal"] then
            minion:Destroy()
        end

        CurrencyPoint = WaysLIST["WAY_POINT"..Path]

        if not CurrencyPoint then
            CurrencyPoint = WaysLIST["GOAL"]
        end

        minion.Humanoid:MoveTo(CurrencyPoint)
        Path += 1
    end)

Can someone tell me what to do to solve or fix this issue? The NPC simply stops, and when the player moves away, it starts moving normally again.

I’m not exactly sure of the issue, but try setting the network owner of the NPC to the player if you already haven’t.

OK, I’ll try, thanks

If I can, I’ll post the solution
