Character Sliding [NPC]

[Chaos_milo]

1. What do you want to achieve?
   An AI that doesn’t slide around the ground

2. What is the issue?
   The Character is Sliding and I don’t have any idea how to fix it.

3. What solutions have you tried so far?
   I did look on the DevHub but didn’t find anything,
   I tried changing the HipHeight
   Changing Platform Stand to true [Made it worse so I changed it back]
   Setting all the parts to CanCollide = false

Currently the HumanoidRootPart is not anchored like every other Part, Otherwise it wouldn’t move.

Also Here’s the AI Code:

local teddy = script.Parent
local humanoid = teddy.Humanoid

local waypoints
local nextWaypointIndex
local reachedConnection
local blockedConnection

humanoid:SetStateEnabled(Enum.HumanoidStateType.FallingDown, false)

for i, player in ipairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
	script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart:SetNetworkOwner(player)
end

local PathfindingService = game:GetService("PathfindingService")

local function getPath(destination)
	local pathParams = {
		["AgentHeight"] = 3,
		["AgentRadius"] = 1.5,
		["AgentCanJump"] = true,
		["AgentCanClimb"] = true,
	}


	local path = PathfindingService:CreatePath(pathParams)
	
	for _, part in pairs(script.Parent:GetChildren()) do 
		if part:IsA("BasePart") then 
			part:SetNetworkOwner(nil) 
		end
	end

	local waypointss = path:GetWaypoints()
	--
	path:ComputeAsync(teddy.HumanoidRootPart.Position, destination.Position)

	path.Blocked:Connect(function()
		print("Path is blocked, Generating new Path..")
		path:ComputeAsync(teddy.HumanoidRootPart.Position, destination.Position)
	end)



	--

	for _, part in pairs(script.Parent:GetChildren()) do 
		if part:IsA("BasePart") then 
			part:SetNetworkOwner(nil) 
		end
	end


	return path

end

local function walkTo(destination)
	local path = getPath(destination)

	for _, part in pairs(script.Parent:GetChildren()) do 
		if part:IsA("BasePart") then 
			part:SetNetworkOwner(nil) 
		end
	end


	for index, waypoint in pairs(path:GetWaypoints()) do
		humanoid:MoveTo(waypoint.Position)
		humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()
	end
end

local function patrol()
	for _, part in pairs(script.Parent:GetChildren()) do 
		if part:IsA("BasePart") then 
			part:SetNetworkOwner(nil) 
		end
	end

	local waypoints = workspace.IMPORTANTSCRIPTING.TrashRobotSpots:GetChildren()
	local randomNum = math.random(1, #waypoints)
	walkTo(waypoints[randomNum])
end

local Anims = script.Parent.Anims.Uploaded

Maybe you can Help

Could you tell me what the ‘Scale’ property of the NPC’s ‘Model’ is?

[Chaos_milo]

I Checked it says: It’s Scale is::

0.006

[Reditect]

Alright, could you put all of the contents/children of that ‘Model’ and put it into a new ‘Model’? You can re-name it back to the same thing, just everything needs to be grouped/put into a new ‘Model’.

I want to check if that’ll fix the issue. If what I explained doesn’t make sense, I could provide a video.

[Chaos_milo]

As long as my Rig Stays thats okay.
Im gonna try it now.

[Chaos_milo]

Haven’t thought it would be that easy!
Thanks It Worked!

[Reditect]

No problem. There’s currently an issue regarding the ‘Scale’ property for custom character models. Something about physics and whatnot. Roblox knows about it.

To anyone who stumbles upon this, make sure your Humanoid ‘HipHeight’ is high enough and that the ‘Scale’ property is 1 for your custom characters ‘Model’.
