That’s because he is anchored.

#22

ah, okay

(textfillerrrrrrrrrrr)

#23

can i use wait() to add a cooldown when he teleports?
if not, how can i add a cooldown, and how do i remove collision?

#24

do you want the npc to go behind the player or do you want it to go through the player

#25

behind the player, like in Identity Fraud.

#26 
NPC:PivotTo(Character:GetPivot() - Vector3.new(0, 0, 2))

try this

havent tested it because im on mobile right now

#27

i had to swap the 0, 0, 2 to 5, 0, 0 and it works now.

#28

nevermind, screwed something up, -5 worked

#29

alright, though there might be problems when the player turns direction

#30

0, 0, -5 should work, im going to try it

#31

it always teleports to the side

#32

i think

-Character.Humanoid.MoveDirection * 5

should work

#33

now the end is red

do this

Stan:PivotTo(Character:GetPivot() - (-Character.Humanoid.MoveDirection * 5))

#36 
local CharacterPivot = PlayerCharacter:GetPivot()
NPC:PivotTo(CharacterPivot * CFrame.new(0, 0, 2.5))

This maniuplates the rotation matrix of the NPC so that the NPC is behind the character and looking at him.

#37

this could mess up on turns though
i think
im not sure

#38

How so?

#39

works, but now he always spawns behind me, so i cant look at him.

#40

But you asked to have him spawn specifically behind the character.

#41

world space and object space things
