So, I have this piece of code here.

local osana = game.Workspace.Osana
local osanaPathPoint = game.Workspace.OsanaEndingPoint
local PathfindingService = game:GetService("PathfindingService")
local humanoid = osana.Humanoid
local walkAnim = humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.walk)
local agentParams = {
	AgentRadius = 1,
	AgentHeight = 2,
	AgentCanJump = false,
}

local path = PathfindingService:CreatePath(agentParams)

path:ComputeAsync(osana.HumanoidRootPart.Position, osanaPathPoint.Position)

local waypoints
local currentWaypointIndex

local function followPath(destinationObject)
	-- Compute and check the path
	path:ComputeAsync(osana.HumanoidRootPart.Position, destinationObject.Position)
	-- Empty waypoints table after each new path computation
	waypoints = {}

	if path.Status == Enum.PathStatus.Success then
		-- Get the path waypoints and start zombie walking
		waypoints = path:GetWaypoints()
		print(humanoid.DisplayName.."'s path is blocked but it has been recalculated. Is a player or another object in the NPC's way?")
		-- Move to first waypoint
		currentWaypointIndex = 1
		humanoid:MoveTo(waypoints[currentWaypointIndex].Position)
	else
		-- Error (path not found); stop humanoid
		humanoid:MoveTo(osana.HumanoidRootPart.Position)
	end
end

local function onWaypointReached(reached)
	if reached and currentWaypointIndex < #waypoints then
		currentWaypointIndex = currentWaypointIndex + 1
		humanoid:MoveTo(waypoints[currentWaypointIndex].Position)
	end
end

local function onPathBlocked(blockedWaypointIndex)
	-- Check if the obstacle is further down the path
	if blockedWaypointIndex > currentWaypointIndex then
		-- Call function to re-compute the path
		followPath(osanaPathPoint)
	end
end

path.Blocked:Connect(onPathBlocked)

humanoid.MoveToFinished:Connect(onWaypointReached)

followPath(osanaPathPoint)

It's supposed to avoid any obstacle, but apparently it does detect blocked paths but doesn't detect NPCs and players. This is not good since the game I'm working on will have 82 NPCs pathfinding their way through only 3 narrow gates and they'll most likely get stuck. What is a possible solution?
