ReplicatedStorage.NoobPath:172: attempt to index nil with 'Connect'
it says that the error is coming from NoobPath:Activate()

It seems like you are using constructor .new() without MoveFinished signal given, which is why it caused an error. If you are using Humanoid, try .Humanoid() constructor.

what about a testing place, where the npc have different capabilities⌠like some are fast and smart, some are slow and smart , some are fast and not so smartâŚ
can different NPCs have different things like above?
NoobPath is just Pathfinding service but simplified and improved. What you mentioned are specific behaviors that will require custom logic and has to be implemented by you.
mm ok⌠seems like it would be cool to have in noobpathâŚ
is there any kind of global debugging that can be turned off and on⌠like to see what it is doing when testing things out, but being able to toggle it off at other times?
you can turn visualize on, and add connection to the error, jumpfinished, movefinished, overide, trapped, reached, waypoint reached⌠events to detect what is happening
Do you know any way to make my npc stop spamming jump?, When i get close to him, he stops, but when i am far away, he starts spamming jump, i noticed this doesnât happens when i delete the function on âonTrappedâ that where itâs telling him to jump, but if i delete it , i wonât have a way to make him jump thru obstacles,and also it kinda takes long to jump, which is what i donât want , otherwise itâs actually kinda better than SimplePath, these are the only bugs iâve found
Using only the code given, I canât figure out whatâs the issue. As your monster behaves strange, which it seems like it still chases you even without path being generated (I donât see visual points appearing sometimes). Also I am unsure how you are implementing the loop. Generally, you shouldnât use path:Run() in a loop with signals(also calling path:Run()) together, because when using a loop, signals are pointless as you are calling path:Run() in a certain interval anyways. Also how Trapped work is if the monster failed to reach the destination after a certain time, it fires. By calling path:Run() again, the trapped detection for the previous run will be canceled, making it unviable in this case if you are looping the path:Run().
local pathfindPosition = Vector3.new()
local Pathfinding = require(workspace.NoobPath)
local rake = workspace.Rig
local path = Pathfinding.Humanoid(rake,
{
AgentHeight = 4, -- 3
AgentRadius = 2, -- 2
AgentCanJump = true,
AgentCanClimb = true,
Costs = {
PathfindAvoid = 9999,
Truss = 1,
},
PathSettings = {
SupportPartialPath = true,

WaypointSpacing = 5.5 -- 10
}
)
path.Reached:Connect(function(Waypoint, IsPartial)
task.wait(.1)
path:Run(pathfindPosition)
end)
path.WaypointReached:Connect(function(Waypoint, NextWaypoint)
task.wait(0.1)
path:Run(pathfindPosition)
end)
path.Error:Connect(function(ErrorType : string)
warn(ErrorType)
task.wait(0.1)
path:Run(pathfindPosition)
end)
path.Trapped:Connect(function(TrapType : string)
print("Trapped")
if rake.Humanoid:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Climbing then
path.Jump()
end
path:Run(pathfindPosition)
end)
path.Timeout = true
path.Speed = 16
path.Visualize = true
-- path.Precise = true -- Removed due to bad performance and limited usage, does nothing as of now
local first = true
-- Loop implementation A (Can use with signals)
while true do
task.wait(0.1)
pathfindPosition = workspace:WaitForChild("grewsxb4").PrimaryPart:GetPivot().Position
if first then
-- Run only once, then signals will handle the rest
path:Run(pathfindPosition)
end
first = false
end
-- Loop implementation B (Don't use with signals)
while true do
task.wait(0.1)
pathfindPosition = workspace:WaitForChild("grewsxb4").PrimaryPart:GetPivot().Position
path:Run(pathfindPosition)
end
I tested both Loop A and Loop B, no random jumping occurred.
Please provide me with more details.
Hi, can you send me the code that produces the issue?
I tested with this script for 11 minutes:
local NoobPath = require(game.ServerStorage.NoobPath)
task.spawn(function()
while task.wait(60) do
print(time())
end
end)
local Guy, JumpDetectConnection = NoobPath.Humanoid(script.Parent, {WaypointSpacing = 10, PathSettings = {SupportPartialPath = true}})
if Guy.Idle then -- Access Character state through .Idle
-- print("Idle")
end
Guy.Reached:Connect(function(Waypoint, IsPartial)
print("Reached: " .. tostring(Waypoint) .. " | Partial: " .. tostring(IsPartial))
task.wait(0.1)
Guy:Run(Guy.Character:GetPivot().Position + Vector3.new(math.random(-100, 100), 0, math.random(-100, 100)))
end)
Guy.WaypointReached:Connect(function(Waypoint, NextWaypoint)
-- print("WaypointReached: " .. tostring(Waypoint) .. " | NextWaypoint: " .. tostring(NextWaypoint))
Guy:Run()
end)
Guy.Error:Connect(function(ErrorType : string)
print("Error: ".. ErrorType, Guy.Goal)
task.wait(0.1)
Guy:Run()
end)
Guy.Trapped:Connect(function(TrapType : string)
print("Trapped: ".. TrapType)
if script.Parent.Humanoid:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Climbing then -- Climbing is slower than usual
Guy.Jump() -- Jump to unstuck
end
Guy:Run()
end)
Guy.Timeout = true -- Off by default, it calculate time necessary to travel between Waypoints and Check if the Character arrived after that amount of time, Trapped will be fired if the Character didn't reach Waypoint in time
Guy.Speed = 16 -- 16 by default, used to allow Timeout calculate time necessary to travel between Waypoints
Guy.Visualize = true -- Off by default, basically generate visual spheres to represent Waypoints
Guy:Run(Guy.Character:GetPivot().Position + Vector3.new(math.random(-100, 100), 0, math.random(-100, 100)))
