Anyone know why my ai is confused?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I have 2 moving ais using the same extract script and one of to me is confused which way point to go first to so it goes back and forth, maybe should I make them use separate way points?

#2

your video is not showing anything

Let me resend and I just created a 2nd waypoint named waypoint2 and changed the script and it’s still confused

#4

I still don’t see anything. Could I see the scripts?

#5

Well ima describe the video for you so the monster is in the middle of both waypoints and it keeps turning towards one way point then decides to go the other way point and over and over so it doesn’t get anywhere let me send the pic of the scripts Brb

#6

It won’t let me reply on pc I have no button to reply

You can copy and paste all your script then use ``` to enter script mode and paste it all in there
like this

print ("btw don't forget when putting the ``` it doesn't work unless you put it on a new line")

Also I can barely see your scripts. So could you copy and paste all your code?

Never knew that let me do it rn

if i did it wrong tell me i will redo

#15

what is destination?

path:ComputeAsync(teddy.HumanoidRootPart.Position, destination.Position)

maybe put:

path:ComputeAsync(teddy.HumanoidRootPart.Position, target.Head.Position)
#16

idk i dident make the script think it means waypoint

#17

maybe put:

path:ComputeAsync(teddy.HumanoidRootPart.Position, target.Head.Position)
#18

Instead of the destination part

#19

I wonder why the other ai moves fine with the same extract script tho

#20

You could get the zombie model in the toolbox and just switch what the body looks like.
