How to find part in a certain range

[Deadlox85854868 (Mikeyy)]

I’m trying to make an AI that can walk around and auto collect objects.

However though, the game has separate sides and it wants to try to walk through a wall, which is impossible.

Is there a way to get the objects are in a certain position of x and z? I don’t really know how to explain it, but I want it to collect objects that are in range of a certain x and z.

Trying to calculate the shortest distance to a destination along a path?

Ive been working on a custom pathfinding system where basically there are breadcrumbs around the map along routes and NPCs will walk along these routes. I am having trouble trying to calculate the shortest distance to the destination along the path, I think I am close. local ChosenSpawnpoint = NPCSpawnpoints:GetChildren()[math.random(1, #NPCSpawnpoints:GetChildren())] local ChosenDestination = NPCDestinations:GetChildren()[math.random(1, #NPCDestinations:GetChildren())] local PathsToChoos…

You can loop through the object and see if the positions are in a range of your x and desired z

local objects = [..]:GetChildren()
local MIN_Z, MAX_Z = 5, 50
local MIN_X, MAX_X = 6, 60

for _, object in next, objects do
     local position = object.Position
     if position.X >= MIN_X and position.X <= MAX_X then
          if position.Z >= MIN_Z and position.Z <= MAX_Z then
            
          end
     end
end

Then you would’ve realized that he wasn’t talking about shortest distance (magnitude), but getting objects within a certain position range.
