Dummy Caught On Obstacles And Continuing To Jump

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Here’s the main issue of this script, the AI is supposed to navigate its way over car rubble and hills to the player, but very often, it gets to a point and continues jumping endlessly and doesn’t move forward.

I’ve tried moving the waypoint action and even debounce on the jumping itself, and while the debounce was active to continue normally pathfinding but it didnt work
heres what the code looked like:

--imagine code above this
if waypoint.Action == Enum.PathWaypointAction.Jump then
if debounce then findPath(destination) 
else 
humanoid.Jump == true 
wait(2)
debounce == true 
     end
end

And heres the actual code as it is currently:

local pathfindingService = game:GetService("PathfindingService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local character = script.Parent  

local humanoid = character.Humanoid
local path = pathfindingService:CreatePath({
	AgentHeight = 5; 
	AgentRadius = 3;
	AgentCanJump = true;
}) 
local runService = game:GetService("RunService") 

local waypoints = nil 
local nextwaypointIndex = nil 
local blockedConnection = nil 
character.PrimaryPart:SetNetworkOwner(nil)
local function findTarget() 
	local max_distance = math.huge 
	local nearestTarget = nil 

	for index, player in pairs(Players:GetPlayers())  do
		if player.Character then 
			local target = player.Character 
			local distance = (character.HumanoidRootPart.Position - target.HumanoidRootPart.Position).Magnitude 

			if distance < max_distance  then
				nearestTarget = target 
				max_distance = distance 
			end

			if distance < 5  then
				target.Humanoid:TakeDamage(5)
			end
		end
	end
	return nearestTarget
end 

local function followPath(destination)
	local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
		path:ComputeAsync(character.PrimaryPart.Position, destination)
	end)

	if success and path.Status == Enum.PathStatus.Success then
		waypoints = path:GetWaypoints() 

		blockedConnection = path.Blocked:Connect(function(blockedWaypointIndex)
			if blockedConnection >= nextwaypointIndex then 

				blockedConnection:Disconnect() 
				findTarget(destination)
			end
		end)

		nextwaypointIndex = 2
		humanoid:MoveTo(waypoints[nextwaypointIndex].Position)
		for index, waypoint in pairs(waypoints) do 
			if waypoint.Action == Enum.PathWaypointAction.Jump then
				humanoid.Jump = true
			end
		end 
	else 
		warn("no path", errorMessage)
	end
end 

while wait() do 
	local target = findTarget() 
	if target then
		print(target.Name) 
		followPath(target.HumanoidRootPart.Position)
	end
end
