NPC not rotating

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’ve been trying to make NPC obby completion functions, and I’ve come up with a sort of rough draft for a “wall-hugging” obby course, but I can’t seem to get the rotation to change on the humanoid, no matter what I change the rotation to. I will leave the entire script and a place file for all of this below. Any ideas for why this npc will not actually rotate to the requested rotation?

Script 
--Services

--Other
local obbyModel = game.Workspace.ObbyTest

local npcClone = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Dummy"):Clone()
npcClone.HumanoidRootPart.Position = obbyModel.StartPart.Position + Vector3.new(0,4,0)
npcClone.Parent = game.Workspace
npcClone.Humanoid:MoveTo(obbyModel.Path1.Position)
local jumped = false
local endTouched
local loopTimes = 0
local function testJump(humanoid)
	humanoid.Jump = true
	jumped = true
end

obbyModel.JumpPart.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		testJump(hit.Parent.Humanoid)
	end
end)
repeat wait() until jumped == true
npcClone.Humanoid:MoveTo(obbyModel.Path2.Position)
--Wallhug
local animator = Instance.new("Animator")
animator.Name = "Animator"
animator.Parent = npcClone.Humanoid
local animationInstance = Instance.new("Animation")
animationInstance.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://7148106034"
animationInstance.Parent = npcClone.Humanoid
while true do
	npcClone.HumanoidRootPart.Orientation = Vector3.new(obbyModel.BackWallTop.Orientation.X ,obbyModel.BackWallTop.Orientation.Y,obbyModel.BackWallTop.Orientation.Z )
	--local loadedAnimation = animator:LoadAnimation(animationInstance)
	--loadedAnimation:Play()
	--loadedAnimation.Stopped:Connect(function()
	--	npcClone.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = npcClone.Torso.CFrame
	--end)
	--loadedAnimation.Stopped:Wait()
	wait()
	--npcClone.Humanoid:MoveTo(obbyModel.PathfindingGoal.Position)
end

Perhaps you could try to rotate the entire NPC and not just the HumanoidRootPart. The script is a bit complicated, so I didn’t fully understand it. Sorry if I missed anything important here.

#3

the humanoid root part is anchored or u have a weld inside of the npc so remove the weld if there is one

#4

Are you sure you linked the right place file? The script worked fine for me, though I had to include a default NPC (created with the Rig Builder) because the place file you linked didn’t include one.

#5

You’re right, I forgot to include that.

I believe the root part should be unanchored (in the version I sent), and has to be welded to other body parts to avoid falling out of the world

I believe rotating a root part will rotate all of it? It does when I rotate it manually.
