Help with Finding the position of a R6 Character's Torso

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#21

for a long term solution with multiples players, maybe try and make it look at the player closest to it, if you want me to show you how I can

#22

That’ll work, Thanks.

Also, The game WILL have singleplayer and multiplayer.
(Multiplayer is gonna be recommended because its easier on the player.)

#23

This is what you might want to do (if finding the player closest)

function avoid()
	hum:MoveTo(Vector3.new(0,0,math.random(-10,10)))
	hum.MoveToFinished:Wait()
    local char = getClosestCharacter()
	myRoot.CFrame = CFrame.lookAt(Vector3.new(char.Torso.Position.X, char.Torso.Position.Y, char.Torso.Position.Z)) 
end
#24

So, We’re making progress.

I didnt get Any errors, but the Boss never looked at the Player.

#25

hmm maybe try

myRoot.CFrame = CFrame.new(myRoot.Position,Vector3.new(char.Torso.Position.X,myRoot.Position.Y,char.Torso.Position.Z))

Got this error: “Attempt to index nil with Torso”

#27

Actually, I just got it to work! I’ll send the script.

local Boss = game.Workspace.Boss
local hum = Boss:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local myRoot = Boss:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

local char
local players = game:GetService("Players")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
end)

function avoid()
	local dashDecide
	dashDecide = math.random(1,2)
	if dashDecide == 1 then
		hum:MoveTo(Vector3.new(10,0,0))
		hum.MoveToFinished:Wait() 
		dashDecide = false
	elseif dashDecide == 2 then
		hum:MoveTo(Vector3.new(-10,0,0))	
		hum.MoveToFinished:Wait() 
		dashDecide = false
	end
end


pcall(avoid)
while true do
	wait(0.1)
	myRoot.CFrame = CFrame.new(myRoot.Position,Vector3.new(char.Torso.Position.X,myRoot.Position.Y,char.Torso.Position.Z))
end

You have my gratitude.

Why does this thread have 29 replies? Now 30 including mine.

local players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = players.LocalPlayer or players.PlayerAdded:Wait()
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local torso = character:WaitForChild("Torso")
local torsoPos1 = torso.Position --vector3 value
local torsoPos2 = torso.CFrame --cframe value
