I’ve been trying to create a customer system for the last few days and I thought I was getting it but after testing it with multiple players, it’s doesn’t work like I thought it was going too. Does anyone know what’s going wrong?

local CustomerManager = {}
CustomerManager.__index = CustomerManager

ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")

local pfs = game:GetService("PathfindingService")
local path = pfs:CreatePath({
	Costs = {
		RestrictedZone = math.huge
	}
})

function CustomerManager.StartSession(player)
	local Tycoons = game.Workspace.Tycoons
	if Tycoons:FindFirstChild(player.Name.."_Tycoon") then
		local Tycoon = Tycoons:FindFirstChild(player.Name.."_Tycoon")
		local CashoutQueue = {}
		createCustomers(Tycoon, CashoutQueue, 3)
	end
end

function followPath(npc, goal)
	path:ComputeAsync(npc.HumanoidRootPart.Position, goal.Position)
	wps = {}
	if path.Status == Enum.PathStatus.Success then
		wps = path:GetWaypoints()
		wpIdx = 1
		npc.Humanoid:MoveTo(wps[wpIdx].Position)
	end
end

function moveQueue(Tycoon, CashoutQueue)

	for i = 1, 3 do
		local npcID = CashoutQueue[i]
		if npcID then
		
			followPath(npcID, Tycoon.Customer_Waypoints.Queue[i])
			
		end
	end
end

function createCustomers(Tycoon, CashoutQueue, amount)
	for i = 1, amount do

		local npcClone = ServerStorage.NPC:Clone()
		npcClone:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(Tycoon.CustomerSpawn.CFrame)
		npcClone.Name = "NPC_"..i
		npcClone.Parent = Tycoon.Customers
		pathToBrowse(Tycoon, CashoutQueue, npcClone)
		wait(math.random(5,10))

	end
end

function pathToBrowse(Tycoon, CashoutQueue, npcClone)

	local npc_waypoints = {}

	for i, v in pairs(Tycoon.Customer_Waypoints:GetChildren()) do
		if v.Name == "Waypoint" then

			table.insert(npc_waypoints, v.CFrame)

		end
	end

	local readytoQueue = false
	local exited = false
	
	local selectWaypoint = npc_waypoints[math.random(1, #npc_waypoints)]
	followPath(npcClone, selectWaypoint)
	print(CashoutQueue)
	
	npcClone.Humanoid.MoveToFinished:Connect(function(reached)
		if reached and wpIdx < #wps then
			wpIdx += 1
			npcClone.Humanoid:MoveTo(wps[wpIdx].Position)
		else
			if reached and readytoQueue == false then
				readytoQueue = true
				table.insert(CashoutQueue, npcClone)  
				moveQueue(Tycoon, CashoutQueue)
			end
		end
	end)

	path.Blocked:Connect(function(blockedWpIdx)
		if blockedWpIdx > wpIdx then
			followPath(npc_waypoints[1])
		end
	end)
	
end


return CustomerManager

I don’t know if I’m taking the right route to achieve what I want, I simply want a customer to walk to a location, then walk to the queue and then after a few seconds leave. If you have any advice that would be appriciated
