Every time I spawn the NPC into the game, the welded parts on it shrink, and I can’t figure out why. I have another NPC that works as intended, so I’m not sure why this one does this. I have tried looking on the Dev Forum, but I can’t find anything that would help.
Here is what the NPC looks like normally:
Here is what it looks like after spawning in:
Any help is appreciated.
If your resizing it using a script, try using ScaleTo()
(I’m not sure if this fixes the problem, since I never actually have needed to resize a character model, but I think it should)
I’m not rescaling the parts using a script, they are automatically rescaling themselves after being moved to the spawn location, and I can’t figure out why.
Can you show me the script you move them in?
There is more inside of this module script, but this is the movement portion (the module script is located in Server Script Service):
local physicsService = game:GetService("PhysicsService")
local serverStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local mob = {}
function mob.Move(mob, map)
local humanoid = mob:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local waypoints = workspace.Waypoints
for waypoint=1, #waypoints:GetChildren() do
humanoid:MoveTo(waypoints[waypoint].Position)
humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()
end
mob:Destroy()
end
return mob
I meant the part of the script where they are spawned in, my bad for not clarifying 
(move as in moved to spawn)
local mob = require(script.Mob)
local map = workspace["Highland Park"]
for wave=1, 5 do
print("Wave Starting:", wave)
if wave == 1 then
mob.Spawn("Armored", 1, map)
elseif wave == 2 then
mob.Spawn("Zombie", 4, map)
elseif wave == 3 then
mob.Spawn("Zombie", 6, map)
elseif wave == 4 then
mob.Spawn("Zombie", 8, map)
elseif wave == 5 then
mob.Spawn("Zombie", 10, map)
end
repeat
task.wait(1)
until #workspace.Mobs:GetChildren() == 0
print("Wave Ended")
task.wait(5)
end
what does the mob.Spawn function look like?
What do you mean by “look like”?
show me the mob.Spawn function code
This is the other part of the module script I showed earlier:
function mob.Spawn(name, quantity, map)
local mobExists = workspace.SpawnMobs:FindFirstChild(name)
if mobExists then
for i=1, quantity do
task.wait(1)
local newMob = mobExists:Clone()
newMob.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = workspace.Waypoints[1].CFrame
newMob.Parent = workspace.Mobs
newMob.HumanoidRootPart:SetNetworkOwner(nil)
for i, object in ipairs(newMob:GetDescendants()) do
if object:IsA("BasePart") then
object.CollisionGroup = "Mob"
end
end
coroutine.wrap(mob.Move)(newMob, map)
end
else
warn("Requested Mob Does Not Exist", name)
end
end
use :PivotTo() to move the mob instead of setting the cframe of the HRP
(if this does not work, just send me the whole module script)
Using :PivotTo(), It does teleport the NPC, but the problem with the parts shrinking is persisting.
Here is the full module script (with PivotTo()):
local physicsService = game:GetService("PhysicsService")
local serverStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local mob = {}
function mob.Move(mob, map)
local humanoid = mob:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local waypoints = workspace.Waypoints
for waypoint=1, #waypoints:GetChildren() do
humanoid:MoveTo(waypoints[waypoint].Position)
humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()
end
mob:Destroy()
end
function mob.Spawn(name, quantity, map)
local mobExists = workspace.SpawnMobs:FindFirstChild(name)
if mobExists then
for i=1, quantity do
task.wait(1)
local newMob = mobExists:Clone()
newMob.HumanoidRootPart:PivotTo(workspace.Waypoints[1].CFrame)
newMob.Parent = workspace.Mobs
newMob.HumanoidRootPart:SetNetworkOwner(nil)
for i, object in ipairs(newMob:GetDescendants()) do
if object:IsA("BasePart") then
object.CollisionGroup = "Mob"
end
end
coroutine.wrap(mob.Move)(newMob, map)
end
else
warn("Requested Mob Does Not Exist", name)
end
end
return mob
i have no idea whats happening here, your not resizing the mob or anything, what happens when using another model?
Most of the other models don’t have extra parts, but one that does have a part connected to the head works just fine (aside from a issue that is unrelated to the welded parts). Is it possible that this is happening because the parts that are welded are a union?
I have never welded to unions before, that could cause some weird things to happen since unions can be a bit weird sometimes, I seriously doubt it though. Can you answer these 3 questions for me?
Taking it out of the folder must be the problem here, what happens when you try moving it to another folder?
It normally is moved into another folder for active mobs, but even when it isn’t moved from the folder, once I run the game, it shows the parts as shrunk, and when I exit the running game in Roblox Studio, the parts return to their normal size.
So, just running the game seems to be the problem. Try making the models unions instead.
