That’s the reason why, it thinks you have left the safezone and it keeps chasing you thinking you’re still in the map

so what should i change it to region3 or raycast

Either works, or a combination of both to save server resources would be best.

ok i will do that so you think that will fix it?

Nothing else in this script would make it so it keeps chasing you, unless outside interference from a different script is changing the attribute to false

Give this a go: ZonePlus v3.2.0 | Construct dynamic zones and effectively determine players and parts within their boundaries

hi for some reason i did this and it still goes inside of the safe zone:


local PathfindingService = game:GetService("PathfindingService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local SAFE_ZONE_TAG = "InSafeZone"
local ENEMY = workspace["."]
local safeZone = workspace.Safezone
local DETECTION_RADIUS = 50
local maxDistance = 45

local function isPlayerVisible(enemy, target)
	local direction = (target.Position - enemy.HumanoidRootPart.Position).Unit
	local raycastParams = RaycastParams.new()
	raycastParams.FilterDescendantsInstances = {enemy}
	raycastParams.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude

	local raycastResult = workspace:Raycast(enemy.HumanoidRootPart.Position, direction * DETECTION_RADIUS, raycastParams)

	if raycastResult then
		local hitPart = raycastResult.Instance
		if hitPart and hitPart:IsDescendantOf(target.Parent) then
			return true
		end
	end

	return false
end

local function moveToTarget(enemy, target)
	local path = PathfindingService:CreatePath()

	path:ComputeAsync(enemy.HumanoidRootPart.Position, target.Position)
	if path.Status == Enum.PathStatus.Success then
		local waypoints = path:GetWaypoints()
		for _, waypoint in ipairs(waypoints) do
			enemy.Humanoid:MoveTo(waypoint.Position)
			local reached = enemy.Humanoid.MoveToFinished
			if not reached then
				print("Failed to reach waypoint")
				break
			end
		end
	else
		print("Path computation failed:", path.Status)
	end
end

local function detectAndChase(enemy)
	while task.wait() do
		local partsInRadius = workspace:GetPartBoundsInRadius(enemy.HumanoidRootPart.Position, DETECTION_RADIUS)

		for _, part in ipairs(partsInRadius) do
			local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
			if player and player.Character and not player.Character:GetAttribute(SAFE_ZONE_TAG) then
				if isPlayerVisible(enemy, part) then
					print("Chasing player:", player.Name)
					moveToTarget(enemy, part)
				end
			end
		end
	end
end

local function checkSafeZonePlayers()
	local region = Region3.new(
		safeZone.Position - (safeZone.Size / 2),
		safeZone.Position + (safeZone.Size / 2)
	)

	local overlappingParts = workspace:FindPartsInRegion3(region, nil, math.huge)
	local playersInSafeZone = {}

	for _, part in ipairs(overlappingParts) do
		local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
		if player then
			player.Character:SetAttribute(SAFE_ZONE_TAG, true)
			playersInSafeZone[player.Name] = true
		end
	end

	for _, player in ipairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
		if not playersInSafeZone[player.Name] and player.Character then
			player.Character:SetAttribute(SAFE_ZONE_TAG, false)
		end
	end
end


task.spawn(function()
	while task.wait(1) do
		checkSafeZonePlayers()
	end
end)

-- Start Detection
task.spawn(function()
	detectAndChase(ENEMY)
end)

Print

player.Character:GetAttribute(SAFE_ZONE_TAG)

before chasing the player, and also make a break condition on the pathfinding so that it stops if the player’s atrribute changes

#12

it says false??(30charrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr)

#13 
for _, part in ipairs(overlappingParts) do
		local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
		if player then
			player.Character:SetAttribute(SAFE_ZONE_TAG, true)
			playersInSafeZone[player.Name] = true
			break
		end
	end

	for _, player in ipairs(Players:GetPlayers()) do
		if not playersInSafeZone[player.Name] and player.Character then
			player.Character:SetAttribute(SAFE_ZONE_TAG, false)
			break
		end
#14

It checks it every one second, does it say true after a second or so?

#15

no (30 30charrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrracter)

#16

i don’t understand why it does this

#17

Have you tried checking if its even detecting the player in the safezone? Print a message to see if it sets it to true at all

#18

Once it enters the safe zone? (300000000000000000000)

#19

Yes__________________ (wordfill)

#20

once i enter the safe zone it said false then true

#21

Yes, that is because of the 1 second delay, have you added the break condition to the PathFinding so it stops tracking you?

#22 
if player then
			playersInSafeZone[player.Name] = true
			player.Character:SetAttribute(SAFE_ZONE_TAG, true)
			print(player.Character:GetAttribute(SAFE_ZONE_TAG))
		end
#23

where do i add the break at
