Thanks. Have A Good Day. Bye! I Will Reply This Again Tomorrow.
Your code (Modified works good). I ran into small lag, nothing major, must be the for loop or getTarget(), I’m not sure to be honest with you. This is what I got from your code (modified):
Edit: Could not Upload the Video(tried multiple times)
And this is the code:
modified code
local humanoid = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local humanoidrootpart = script.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local MoveAround = script.Parent:WaitForChild("movee") -- walk to Parts in Character(I did this as I every npc has their own, though there is a better way now)
function findNearestPlayer(Position)
task.wait(0.3)
local List = game.Workspace:GetChildren()
local Torso = nil
local Distance = 30 -- Range to search for Targets
local Temp = nil
local Human = nil
local Temp2 = nil
for x = 1, #List do
Temp2 = List[x]
if (Temp2.className == "Model") and (Temp2 ~= script.Parent) then
Temp = Temp2:findFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
Human = Temp2:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
if (Temp ~= nil) and (Human ~= nil) and (Human.Health > 0) then
if (Temp.Position - Position).magnitude < Distance then
Torso = Temp
Distance = (Temp.Position - Position).magnitude
end
end
end
end
return Torso
end
local function Attack(target)
local distance = (humanoidrootpart.Position - target.Position).Magnitude
if target.Parent.Humanoid.Health == 0 then return end
if distance > 2 then
humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
humanoid:MoveTo(target.Position, target)
else
--game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage').Events["JumpScare Events"]["Monster-K Event"]:FireClient(players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(target))
humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
humanoid.JumpPower = 0
--MonsterKAnimationLoad:Play()
target.Parent.Humanoid.Health = 0
--MonsterKAnimationLoad.Stopped:Wait()
task.wait(2)
humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
humanoid.JumpPower = 50
end
end
local function MoveTo()
--for index, waypoint in pairs(path:GetWaypoints()) do
local target = findNearestPlayer(humanoidrootpart.Position)
if target then
Attack(target)
else
if humanoid.WalkSpeed == 24 then humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16 end
local part = MoveAround:GetChildren()[math.random(1,#MoveAround:GetChildren())]
humanoid:MoveTo(part.Position)
humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()
end
--end
end
--[[local function patrol()
local waypoints = game:GetService('Workspace').Monster.Positions:GetChildren()
local random = math.random(1, #waypoints)
MoveTo(waypoints[random])
end]]
while wait(0.5) do
MoveTo()
end

I Used PathService because the A.I can stuck to the walls.
But in modified code it uses :MoveTo() which can get stuck by walls or something like these
I can only assume it’s the wait at 0.5 . Other than that, I found this YouTubeVideo with this Code:
Code
local pathfinding = game.PathfindingService
local players = game.Players
local runService = game["Run Service"]
local enemy = script.Parent
local humanoid = enemy:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
enemy.PrimaryPart:SetNetworkOwner(nil)
local waypoints
local nextWaypointIndex
local reachedConnection
local blockedConnection
local walkSpeed = 17
local sprintSpeed = 20
local damage = 0
local maxDistance = 100
local function getPath(destination)
local path = pathfinding:CreatePath({
AgentHeight = 6;
AgentRadius = 3;
AgentCanJump = false;
AgentCanClimb = false;
Costs = {
Water = 100;
DangerZone = math.huge
}
})
path:ComputeAsync(enemy.HumanoidRootPart.Position, destination.Position)
return path
end
local function findTarget()
local nearestTarget
maxDistance = enemy:GetAttribute("MaxDistance")
for index, player in pairs(players:GetPlayers()) do
if player.Character then
local target = player.Character
local distance = (enemy.HumanoidRootPart.Position - target.HumanoidRootPart.Position).Magnitude
if distance < maxDistance then
nearestTarget = target
maxDistance = distance
end
end
end
return nearestTarget
end
local function capture(target)
local distance = (enemy.HumanoidRootPart.Position - target.HumanoidRootPart.Position).Magnitude
if distance > 3 then
humanoid:MoveTo(target.HumanoidRootPart.Position)
else
-- Jumpscare Event
--target.Humanoid:TakeDamage(damage)
end
end
local function walkTo(destination)
local path = getPath(destination)
if path.Status == Enum.PathStatus.Success then
for index, waypoint in pairs(path:GetWaypoints()) do
local target = findTarget()
if target then
capture(target)
enemy.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = sprintSpeed
break
else
enemy.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = walkSpeed
humanoid:MoveTo(waypoint.Position)
humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()
end
end
else
humanoid:MoveTo(destination.Position - (enemy.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector * 10))
end
end
local function patrol()
local waypoints = workspace["AI Waypoints"]:GetChildren()
local randomWaypoint = math.random(1, #waypoints)
walkTo(waypoints[randomWaypoint])
end
while wait(0.01) do
patrol()
end
Try something like this …
snip
for i,waypoint in ipairs(waypoints)do
local distance=(waypoint.Position-PrimaryPart.Position).Magnitude
local duration=(distance/(Humanoid.WalkSpeed*1.033)) --⏳--adjust
humanoid:MoveTo(waypoint.Position)
Next Position has a heartbeat:Wait() to get to this again.
I Used :MoveTo() for attack and Used PathService For Patrolling. Here Is The Full Code :
local pathfindingservice = game:GetService('PathfindingService')
local players = game:GetService('Players')
local monsterchar = script.Parent.Parent
local humanoid = monsterchar.Humanoid
local humanoidrootpart = monsterchar.HumanoidRootPart
local MonsterKAnimation = script.Parent.Animations["Monster-K Animation"]
local MonsterKAnimationLoad = monsterchar.Humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(MonsterKAnimation)
monsterchar.PrimaryPart:SetNetworkOwner(nil)
local function getTarget()
local players = game:GetService('Players'):GetPlayers()
local bestTarget
local maxdistance = 40
for index, player in pairs(players) do
if player.Character then
local target = player.Character
local distance = (humanoidrootpart.Position - target.PrimaryPart.Position).Magnitude
if distance <= maxdistance then
bestTarget = target
maxdistance = distance
end
end
end
return bestTarget
end
local function getPath(destination)
local path = pathfindingservice:CreatePath({
AgentCanJump = false
})
path:ComputeAsync(humanoidrootpart.Position, destination.Position)
return path
end
local function Attack(target)
local distance = (humanoidrootpart.Position - target.PrimaryPart.Position).Magnitude
if target.Humanoid.Health == 0 then return end
if distance > 2 then
humanoid.WalkSpeed = 24
humanoid:MoveTo(target.PrimaryPart.Position, target.PrimaryPart)
else
game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage').Events["JumpScare Events"]["Monster-K Event"]:FireClient(players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(target))
humanoidrootpart.Anchored = true
MonsterKAnimationLoad:Play()
target.Humanoid.Health = 0
MonsterKAnimationLoad.Stopped:Wait()
humanoidrootpart.Anchored = false
humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
end
end
local function MoveTo(destination)
local path = getPath(destination)
for index, waypoint in pairs(path:GetWaypoints()) do
local target = getTarget()
if target then
Attack(target)
break
else
if humanoid.WalkSpeed == 24 then humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16 end
humanoid:MoveTo(waypoint.Position)
humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()
end
end
end
local function patrol()
local waypoints = game:GetService('Workspace').Monster.Positions:GetChildren()
local random = math.random(1, #waypoints)
MoveTo(waypoints[random])
end
while wait(0.5) do
patrol()
end
I think i am gonna do this tomorrow again because of my timezone (GMT+4). Maybe I Look At 01:00 or smth like that ( In My TimeZone ).
Back After 3 Days. I Had Other Things To Do. And No Fixes 
I did like this:
while wait() do
patrol()
end
Now it is so laggy
I really don’t wanna give up but i think i am gonna…
Well it’s because it reached it’s position?
Yeah that is the problem. When it reaches position because of patrolling it waits like 0.5 second and then it follows you back. But when i do it while true do it just doesn’t waits for it reaches the position. it just attacks repeatedly and not waiting for it to end and it makes it laggy. And i don’t know how to make it to waits for :MoveTo() finished while ATTACK is enabled. When i just do while true do MoveToFinished:Wait() it errors because when it doesn’t attack it doesn’t moveto somewhere and it stops. ( Sorry if grammar mistakes )
How to detect if humanoid moveto is moving. I used movedirection but i think i did use it wrong or it doesn’t work.
Tried this code :
local pathfindingservice = game:GetService('PathfindingService')
local players = game:GetService('Players')
local monsterchar = script.Parent.Parent
local humanoid = monsterchar.Humanoid
local humanoidrootpart = monsterchar.HumanoidRootPart
local MonsterKAnimation = script.Parent.Animations["Monster-K Animation"]
local MonsterKAnimationLoad = monsterchar.Humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(MonsterKAnimation)
monsterchar.PrimaryPart:SetNetworkOwner(nil)
local function getTarget()
local players = game:GetService('Players'):GetPlayers()
local bestTarget
local maxdistance = 40
for index, player in pairs(players) do
if player.Character then
local target = player.Character
local distance = (humanoidrootpart.Position - target.PrimaryPart.Position).Magnitude
if distance <= maxdistance then
bestTarget = target
maxdistance = distance
end
end
end
return bestTarget
end
local function getPath(destination)
local path = pathfindingservice:CreatePath({
AgentCanJump = false
})
path:ComputeAsync(humanoidrootpart.Position, destination.Position)
return path
end
local function Attack(target)
local distance = (humanoidrootpart.Position - target.PrimaryPart.Position).Magnitude
if distance > 2.5 then
humanoid.WalkSpeed = 24
humanoid:MoveTo(target.PrimaryPart.Position, target.PrimaryPart)
humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()
else
game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage').Events["JumpScare Events"]["Monster-K Event"]:FireClient(players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(target))
humanoidrootpart.Anchored = true
MonsterKAnimationLoad:Play()
target.Humanoid.Health = 0
MonsterKAnimationLoad.Stopped:Wait()
humanoidrootpart.Anchored = false
humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
end
end
local function MoveTo(destination)
local path = getPath(destination)
for index, waypoint in pairs(path:GetWaypoints()) do
local target = getTarget()
if target and target.Humanoid.Health > 0 then
Attack(target)
break
else
if humanoid.WalkSpeed == 24 then humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16 end
humanoid:MoveTo(waypoint.Position)
humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()
end
end
end
local function patrol()
local waypoints = game:GetService('Workspace').Monster.Positions:GetChildren()
local random = math.random(1, #waypoints)
MoveTo(waypoints[random])
end
while true do
patrol()
end
but at the end the studio crashed ( the client also crashes )
I’m not sure if this will help, but you can try adding a bit of forward distance so that the NPC runs past the player, thereby not stopping at the player’s last point. However, I must warn you that this approach might either help or make the NPC’s behavior a bit strange.
Position = HumanoidRootPart.Position + HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector * 2
It will increase the distance where the NPC needs to go by 2 units in the direction the player is facing
It works good now but it is so much laggy and crashes
If you wanna see how it acts i can add you to tester
Feel free to add it if you want; I’ll check it later. I haven’t fully grasped how to use PathfindingService yet.
