local PathfindingService = game:GetService("PathfindingService")

local function findPath(player)
    local human = player.Character
    local humanoid = human.Humanoid
    local endDestination = workspace.Obby.WalkToLocation
    local path = PathfindingService:CreatePath()
    path:ComputeAsync(human.HumanoidRootPart.Position, endDestination.Position)
    if path.Status == Enum.PathStatus.Success then
        local Nodes = path:GetWaypoints()

        for i,v in pairs(Nodes) do
            local node = Instance.new("Part", workspace)
            node.Size = Vector3.new(1,1,1)
            node.Position = v.Position
            node.Anchored = true
            node.CanCollide = false
            humanoid.WalkToPoint = v.Position
            humanoid:MoveTo(v.Position)
        end
    end
end

game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.FindPath.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
    findPath(player)
end)

when i replace it with a npc it works but on the localplayer it finds the path but doesnt move the player

it is literally that the player is standing at one place? not sure about that but your code has one mistake, that is after humanoid:MoveTo(v.Position) you need humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait() so the humanoid finsihes walking to the waypoint before walking to next one imKirda 4491 — 2y

yes i disable the controller so it stands in one place imKlevi 94 — 2y

when i add humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait() the pathfinding stops imKlevi 94 — 2y

you can try this to disable the players Movement note: this only disables all keyboard controls

local ContextActionService = game:GetService("ContextActionService")
local Name = "freezeMovement"

ContextActionService:BindAction(
    Name,
    function() return Enum.ContextActionResult.Sink end,
    false,
    unpack(Enum.PlayerActions:GetEnumItems())
)

type to unfreeze

ContextActionService:UnbindAction(Name)

and heres a gif on what it looks like with a small maze and your pathfinding streamable.com/q5s6u7 Full code

local ContextActionService = game:GetService("ContextActionService")
local PathfindingService = game:GetService("PathfindingService")
local Name = "freezeMovement"

ContextActionService:BindAction( --Stops player from moveing
    Name,
    function() return Enum.ContextActionResult.Sink end,
    false,
    unpack(Enum.PlayerActions:GetEnumItems())
)

local function findPath(player)
    local human = player.Character
    local humanoid = human.Humanoid
    local endDestination = workspace.Move
    local path = PathfindingService:CreatePath()
    path:ComputeAsync(human.HumanoidRootPart.Position, endDestination.Position)
    if path.Status == Enum.PathStatus.Success then
        local Nodes = path:GetWaypoints()
        for i,v in pairs(Nodes) do
            local node = Instance.new("Part", workspace)
            node.Size = Vector3.new(1,1,1)
            node.Position = v.Position
            node.Anchored = true
            node.CanCollide = false
            humanoid.WalkToPoint = v.Position
            humanoid:MoveTo(v.Position)
            humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()
        end
        ContextActionService:UnbindAction(Name)--Unlock player movement after the loop
    end
end

findPath(game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer)
