Here you go

EntitySpawner 
local EnemyHandler = require(script.EnemyHandler)
local playerUnitHandler = require(script.PlayerUnitHandler)

local Map = game.Workspace["Tower Defense Map"]
local Bases = Map.Bases

local EnemyBase = game.Workspace["Tower Defense Map"].Bases.EnemyBase
local PlayerBase = game.Workspace["Tower Defense Map"].Bases.PlayerBase

local Enemies = Map.Enemies	

playerUnitHandler.createUnit({
	Damage = 1,
	Range = 15,
	AttackDelay = 2
})
for i = 1, 10 do
	EnemyHandler.createEnemy({
		Health = 1,
	})
	
	task.wait(2)
end
PlayerUnitHandler 
local PUnitHeandler = {List={}}

local ServerStorage = game.ServerStorage

local Map = game.Workspace["Tower Defense Map"]
local Units = Map.Units
local Enemies = Map.Enemies

local function getClosetEnemy(Range)
	local ClosestEnemy, Distance = nil, math.huge
	for _, Enemy in next, Enemies:GetChildren() do
		local Distance = (Unit.Position - Enemy.Position).Magnitude 
		if Distance <= Distance then
			ClosestEnemy = Enemy
			ClosestDistance = Distance 
			
		end 
	end
	return ClosestEnemy, Distance
end

PUnitHeandler.createUnit = function(Details)
	local Unit = ServerStorage.Unit:Clone()
	Unit.Parent = Units
	Unit.Radius.Size = Vector3.new(Details.Range, Details.Range, Details.Range)
	Unit.Radius.Position = Unit.Position
	Unit.Radius.Transparency = 1
	
	task.spawn(function()
		while Unit:IsDescendantOf(workspace) do
			local Enemy = getClosetEnemy(Unit, Details.Range)
			if not Enemy then continue end
			print(Enemy)
			task.wait()
		end
	end)
end 

return PUnitHeandler

I even made a whole new game to see whether or not it was the game and it still doesn’t work

#27

what about EnemyHandler ?
limit

#28

all the scripts were at the beginning of the post but here

local EHandler = {List={}}

local HttpService = game:GetService("HttpService")
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

local ServerStorage = game.ServerStorage

local Map = game.Workspace["Tower Defense Map"]
local WalkPoints = 	Map.Movement
local Enemies = Map.Enemies

local PlayerBase = Map.Bases.PlayerBase

local function OnFinish(Enemy)
	Enemy.Body:Destroy();
	PlayerBase.Health.Value -= Enemy.Details.Damage
end

local MoveEnemy
MoveEnemy = function(Enemy)
	if not(WalkPoints:FindFirstChild(Enemy.CurrentPoint)) then 
		return OnFinish()
	end 	
	local Info = TweenInfo.new(2);	
	TweenService:Create(Enemy.Body, TweenInfo.new(2,Enum.EasingStyle.Linear), {
		Position = WalkPoints[tostring(Enemy.CurrentPoint)].Position 
	}):Play()
	Enemy.CurrentPoint += 1
	task.delay(2, MoveEnemy, Enemy)
end

EHandler.doDamage = function(EntityGUID, Damage)
	local Entity = EHandler.List[EntityGUID]
	if not Entity then return warn('GUID not found in Entity List') end 
	Entity.Health -= Damage
	if Entity.Health <= 0 then
		Entity.Body:Destroy()
	end
end

EHandler.createEnemy = function(Details)
	-- Will later be used to determine health, type, and etc... 
	local GUID = HttpService:GenerateGUID(false) 

	local Enemy = ServerStorage.Enemy:Clone()

	Enemy.Parent = Enemies
	Enemy.Position = WalkPoints["1"].Position
	Enemy.Name = GUID

	local EnemyDetails = {
		Body = Enemy,
		CurrentPoint = 1,
		Details = Details,
		OnDamage = function(Damage)end,
	}

	--Future..
	EHandler.List[GUID] = EnemyDetails
	MoveEnemy(EnemyDetails)

	return EnemyDetails
end

return EHandler
#29

can you put a print under

playerUnitHandler.createUnit({
Damage = 1,
Range = 15,
AttackDelay = 2
})

and tell me if it runs

#30

it worked

18:23:39.510  this is a test  -  Server - EntitySpawner:12

I placed it everywhere and this is what it comes back to

Put a print statement under here and see if it prints, also check if Enemy is cancollide true
