Maybe it’s because you’re attempting to use a range with a negative number and a positive number.
If this returned a negative number, it would go down on the y-axis leading it to be under the baseplate. It wouldn’t even intersect the baseplate.
Do you need it to be a negative number? Or are you just trying to get a range in between? If you’re not, you can simple use math.abs (get the absolute value of the number)
Trying to randomize the pathfinding. then making it so if they spot someone then they get cover.
My bad, I didn’t realize that the y spot was 0. You’re right
AHA issue:
-- its making it go in a really wierd position
local cast = Raycast(RayPos + Vector3.new(0,50,0),RayPos +Vector3.new(0,-50,0),{})
-- this is what it should have been
local cast = Raycast(RayPos + Vector3.new(0,50,0),Vector3.new(0,-50,0),{})
Is that all that’s wrong? Mark ya post as the solution
That wasn’t what I was trying to accomplish. I wanted to make a way for this guy to find cover.
Hm well from the way I’ve interpreted it, I’d probably just check if the enemy is in the line of sight of a nearby player (you’d either retrieve that from a raycast or using a Spatial Query or manually checking the distance of each player)
If they are, then find a nearby object.
If the guy can crouch, basically do the equation to get the height (in Vector3 form) and see if any nearby objects is less than or equal to that value (you can use math.clamp for this)
Oh, I know that part. but what would be the most effective way to find an object?
Hm maybe raycasting I feel but in terms of performance, prolly not
That’ll be up to you I guess
Also new problem.
With what you just said do you think I would have to put a point behind all hidable objects? then he would see which one is closest, provides best cover?
Npc
You could however store all the objects that they can hide behind in a Folder
You could then iterate thru that folder and compare positions with the guy (is it a NPC or a player?)
Get the closest one and move behind it
Maybe you could come up with a way to get the longest side of the part and add something depending on what you get from that. Is that even possible? I’m not sure
Or you could just get the LookVector or the part and determine what to do from there.
Yes, I agree with that. I was wondering if there is a more effective way of doing it.
Also why doesn’t he jump over the ledge? He has can jump to true.
I’m not really sure. Try scouring some posts ig
You need to manually handle that. Basically add an if statement and check if Path.Action is equal to Enum.PathWaypointAction.Jump
From there you just manually set Humanoid.Jump to true
Here’s a huge tutorial on all of this
By the way I’m not sure why AgentCanJump doesn’t automatically perform a jump but that’s just how it is 
But I rather have him walk up the stairs. He just ignores them and tries to jump up them. also path.action isn’t a thing.
alright well I’m going To take a break. its late and I’m tired. I’ll come back tomorrow and keep working on it.
I was just saying Path.Action like a placeholder, not something that corrolates with your actual variables
It should be for your code at least waypoint[i].Action
putting this as the solution to close the page
