Problem with pathfinding

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hey. I’ve been using pathfinding recently, but a small detailed blundered me…

I have a function to calculate a new path when I run it. However, when I create a new path before the previous one finished, it gets really “wonky”. It seems the character begins to move back and forth between waypoints. Is there a way to solve this?

local function newPath(v,finish,o)
spawn(function()
	if moving then
		cancel = true
		repeat wait() until moving == false
	end
		path:ComputeAsync(script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position, v)
		waypoints = path:GetWaypoints()
		moving = true
		for _, waypoint in pairs(waypoints) do--for waypoint
			if waypoint.Action == Enum.PathWaypointAction.Jump then--nested if
				if humanoid:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping and humanoid:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.FallingDown and humanoid:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Freefall then
					humanoid:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping)
				end
			end--end nested if
			if cancel == true then
				moving = false
				cancel = false
				break
			end
			humanoid:MoveTo(waypoint.Position )
			humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()
		end
		moving = false
		if finish then
			finish()
		end
	end)

end

i don’t actally see anything wrong with your script at the current moment, but your script is a bit overcomplicated, so ive simplified it, im not sure if this will work for you though.

Script 
local waypoints = {}
local function newPath(v,finish,o)
	waypoints = {}
	local path = game:GetService("PathfindingService"):CreatePath():ComputeAsync(script.Parent.HumanoidRootPart.Position, v)
	waypoints = path:GetWaypoints()
	for _, waypoint in pairs(waypoints) do
		if waypoint.Action == Enum.PathWaypointAction.Jump then
			if humanoid:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping and humanoid:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.FallingDown and humanoid:GetState() ~= Enum.HumanoidStateType.Freefall then
				humanoid:ChangeState(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping)
			end
		end
		humanoid:MoveTo(waypoint.Position )
		humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()
	end
	if finish then
		finish()
	end
end

Well what I tried there is to break once the cancel variable is true. However, none of it seems to be working at the moment(Moving is used to detect if the character is moving or not, canceled is the variable to shut down the movement). Is there a simpler method to achieve this?
