return function(Character)
local GetNearestHumanoid = require(script.Parent.Parent.GetNearestHumanoid)
local EnemyTable = require(script.Parent).EnemyTable
local Humanoid = Character:FindFirstChild(“Humanoid”)

if Humanoid and Character.PrimaryPart then
	local Target = GetNearestHumanoid(Character, EnemyTable)
	if Target and Target.Parent and Target.Parent.PrimaryPart then
		local Distance = (Target.Parent.PrimaryPart.Position - Character.PrimaryPart.Position).Magnitude
		Humanoid:MoveTo(Target.Parent.PrimaryPart.Position, Target.Parent.PrimaryPart)

		if Distance < 10 then
			Humanoid.WalkSpeed = EnemyTable.WalkSpeed
		else
			Humanoid.WalkSpeed = EnemyTable.WalkSpeed * 1.5
		end
	end
end

end

can someone tell me how i can optimize this movement code, im making an rpg game

#2

no idea why the code glithced out like that, i cant fix it tho so mb

#3
  1. Require modules outside of the function
  2. If you want to make sure something isn’t parented to nil, or specifically parented to the workspace you should do instance:IsDescendantOf(workspace)

I would also use variables more because there’s a lot of .Parent.PrimaryPart going on.

thank you, i heard humanoid:moveto is bad performance wise also but i didnt bother changing it since this isnt a td game and theres not gonna be 500 enemies being ran at once in a radius of 30 studs
