if anyone is willing to help me out ty bc im not sure what is the main cause of an npc not even moving.

#23

One silly mistake I’ve made is the NPC will attempt to follow itself sometimes. Maybe that’s the case with your script?

#24

possibly yeah but I dont know exactly. Though that could be the main problem.

#25

also if anyone else wanna help out I will appreciate it.

Use Humanoid:MoveTo() for moving the npc closer

The NPC is still stuck
heres my script so far

local humanoid = script.Parent.Humanoid

while wait() do
	local closestDist = math.huge
	local closestHumanoid = nil

	for _, child in pairs(workspace:GetChildren()) do
		if child:IsA('Model') and child:FindFirstChild('Humanoid') and child.Humanoid ~= humanoid and child.Humanoid.Health > 0 then
			local dist = (script.Parent.Torso.Position - child.Torso.Position).magnitude
			if dist < closestDist and dist < 30 then
				closestDist = dist
				closestHumanoid = child.Humanoid
			end
		end
	end

	if closestHumanoid then
		humanoid.WalkSpeed = 20
		humanoid:MoveTo()
		script.Parent.Torso.Touched:connect(function()
			humanoid.Jump = true
		end)
		if humanoid then
			script.Parent.HealArea.Script.Enabled = true
		end
	else
		humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
	end
end

Something or some part of the script might be breaking the movement of it. Recall that it is unanchored as well.

I also tried on the new game with the exact model and it worked but not on the game im working on
