Pathfinding not calculating up slope

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’ve got a pathfinding AI for my enemy, however it does not go up slopes. On my stairs, I have each step’s CanCollide off, and instead having an invisible wedge for collisions. When I go up the stairs, the AI is not able to follow me, and gives an error in the console.

Could you share the code for your pathfinding algorithm?

#3 
local PathfindingService = game:GetService("PathfindingService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")

local path = PathfindingService:CreatePath({
	AgentRadius = 3,
	AgentHeight = 6,
	AgentCanJump = true,
	Costs = {
		Water = 20
	}
})

local character = script.Parent
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local waypoints
local nextWaypointIndex
local reachedConnection
local blockedConnection

local function followPath(destination)
	-- Compute the path
	local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
		path:ComputeAsync(character.PrimaryPart.Position, destination)
	end)

	if success and path.Status == Enum.PathStatus.Success then
		-- Get the path waypoints
		waypoints = path:GetWaypoints()

		-- Detect if path becomes blocked
		blockedConnection = path.Blocked:Connect(function(blockedWaypointIndex)
			-- Check if the obstacle is further down the path
			if blockedWaypointIndex >= nextWaypointIndex then
				-- Stop detecting path blockage until path is re-computed
				blockedConnection:Disconnect()
				-- Call function to re-compute new path
				followPath(destination)
			end
		end)

		-- Detect when movement to next waypoint is complete
		if not reachedConnection then
			reachedConnection = humanoid.MoveToFinished:Connect(function(reached)
				if reached and nextWaypointIndex < #waypoints then
					-- Increase waypoint index and move to next waypoint
					nextWaypointIndex += 1
					humanoid:MoveTo(waypoints[nextWaypointIndex].Position)
				else
					reachedConnection:Disconnect()
					blockedConnection:Disconnect()
				end
			end)
		end

		-- Initially move to second waypoint (first waypoint is path start; skip it)
		nextWaypointIndex = 2
		humanoid:MoveTo(waypoints[nextWaypointIndex].Position)
	else
		warn("Path not computed!", errorMessage)
	end
end

while task.wait() do
	local players = game.Players:GetPlayers()
	local MaxDistance = 1000
	local nearestTarget

	for i,v in pairs(players) do
		if (v.Character) then
			local target = v.Character
			local distance = (script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position - target.HumanoidRootPart.Position).Magnitude

			if (distance < MaxDistance) then
				nearestTarget = target
				MaxDistance = distance
			end
		end
	end

	if nearestTarget ~= nil then
		followPath(nearestTarget.HumanoidRootPart.Position)
	end
end

Bumping this, issue still not solved
