I need help with CollectionService Npc

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hello, I need help with the collection service. I’m having a problem with NPC Ai and Scripts not working when NPC dies using Collection Service.

I’m Extremely new about this since I learned this yesterday. I used this to reduce most of the lag in my game because of a player reporting laggy gameplay.

Here’s the script I used.



local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")

for _, part in pairs(CollectionService:GetTagged("Employees")) do

game.workspace["PloppyPlaytime-Generators"]["Ploppy Playtime Generator 1"].Generator.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()

part.Parent.Torso.Alarm:Play()

wait(0.5)

part.Parent.Torso.Alarm:Play()

part.BillboardGui.TextLabel.Visible = true

wait(20)

part.BillboardGui.TextLabel.Visible = false-- basically alerts the employees to your presence

end)

end

I also used it with my Ai Script, here it is



local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")

for _, part in pairs(CollectionService:GetTagged("TEST")) do

local PathfindingService = game:GetService("PathfindingService")

local Humanoid = part.Humanoid

local Root = part:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")

local goal = game.Workspace.Goal.Position

local path = PathfindingService:CreatePath()

path:ComputeAsync(Root.Position, goal)

local waypoints = path:GetWaypoints()

wait(3)

for i, waypoint in ipairs(waypoints) do

Humanoid:MoveTo(waypoint.Position)

if waypoint.Action == Enum.PathWaypointAction.Jump then

Humanoid.Jump = true

end

Humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()

end

end

This Ai Script works but stops working after the humanoid dies.

Here’s a better script I tried using the collection service on.



local myHuman = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local myRoot = script.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

local Torso = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Torso")

function walkRandomly()

local xRand = math.random(-75,100)

local zRand = math.random(-75,100)

local goal = game.Workspace.Goal.Position

local path = game:GetService("PathfindingService"):CreatePath()

path:ComputeAsync(myRoot.Position, goal)

local waypoints = path:GetWaypoints()

if path.Status == Enum.PathStatus.Success then

for _, waypoint in ipairs(waypoints) do

if waypoint.Action == Enum.PathWaypointAction.Jump then

myHuman.Jump = true

end

myHuman:MoveTo(waypoint.Position)

local timeOut = myHuman.MoveToFinished:Wait(1)

if not timeOut then

myHuman.Jump = true

walkRandomly()

end

end

else

wait(1)

walkRandomly()

end

end

Torso.Touched:Connect(function(obj)

if not obj.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and math.random(1,24) == 24 then

myHuman.Jump = true

end

end)

function main()

myHuman.WalkSpeed = 16

walkRandomly()

end

while wait(0.1) do

if myHuman.Health < 1 then

break

end

main()

end

I tried making this script into the script that controls all Humanoids, but it failed. Even if it worked, it probably would still malfunction when humanoid dies.

Here is the respawn script I use:



name="Humanoid"

robo=script.Parent:clone()

script.Parent.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()

wait(2)

robot=robo:clone()

robot.Parent=script.Parent.Parent

robot:makeJoints()

script.Parent:remove()

end)

My GOALS are:

  1. create one script that controls all ai and makes them follow a part.

  2. Fix collection service malfunctioning due to humanoid dying. (basically keeping the script’s function on respawn)
