I want the npc to walk around the walls even if it cant collide with them.

Try reading this:
Character Pathfinding | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub
It describes how to set up paths, make modifiers, and ways to create paths around objects.

Already tried it but i dont know whats wrong with the script

#4

I’m not too familiar with Pathfinding, but if the NPC isn’t moving correctly the pathfinding script may be fine, you just may not have the obstacles set up properly, so the path gets calculated through a wall where the NPC can’t move.
The Pathfinding engine needs to have the obstacles properly marked and set up so it’ll realize what is a possible path and what isn’t.

Check out the Working with Regions section of the previous link I posted which tells you how to add items that the path will calculate a route around.
Also configure your Navigation Visualization settings so you can see the areas that are allowed and not allowed to have paths inside them.

I figured out the solution is using this module:
