Npc Collision[Help]

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So I’ve been trying to make a collision group so no players can collide with a npc but i honestly don’t get it. I’ve read topics about collision groups on the devforum but i don’t get how i would apply it to what i am doing.

I’m not much of a scripter, and I’m on mobile, but I’m just making a educated guess, can’t you make the npc CanCollide = off?

You should check out PhysicsService on the wiki as it will be the best method to achieve what you’re looking for, if you have any questions feel free to ask.

local physics = game:GetService("PhysicsService") 
physics:CreateCollisionGroup("playersGroup")
physics:CreateCollisionGroup("npcsGroup")
--Sets up the collision groups ^
physics:CollisionGroupSetCollidable("playersGroup", "npcsGroup", false)
--Making the groups cancollide false
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAppearanceLoaded:Connect(function(char)
		for _, v in pairs(char:GetChildren()) do
			if v:IsA("BasePart") then
				physics:SetPartCollisionGroup(v, "playersGroup")
			end
		end
	end)
end)
--waits for char to load in then sets its parts to the collision group

for _, v in pairs(workspace:WaitForChild("npcFolder"):GetChildren()) do
	for _, part in pairs(v:GetChildren()) do
		if part:IsA("BasePart") then
			physics:SetPartCollisionGroup(part, "npcsGroup")
		end
	end
end
--looks inside a folder in workspace and sets all the npc's parts within it to the collision group, you may want to change this part to fit your set up but this should give you the general idea
