Homing Projectile keeps teleporting towards the victim's body when I want It to glide towards It (?)
As the titles says, I made a tool that clones the handle, and what the cloned handle does Is that It will move In a straight line, If It touches someone, It will damage them to 1-5. And after a while It will home In towards the victim torso, dealing 10 damage. The problem Is that the homing projectile keeps teleporting towards the torso
Script:
local tool = script.Parent
local PathFinding = game:GetService("PathfindingService")
tool.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
local LAG_BALLTROLL = tool.Handle:Clone()
tool.Handle.Transparency = 1
tool.Handle.CanCollide = false
LAG_BALLTROLL.Parent = game.Workspace
LAG_BALLTROLL.Orientation = tool.Parent.Torso.Orientation
LAG_BALLTROLL.Sounds.Ello:Play()
LAG_BALLTROLL.Sounds.Ello.PlaybackSpeed = math.random(0.5,2)
game:GetService("Debris"):AddItem(LAG_BALLTROLL,5)
tool.Handle.Transparency = 1
tool.Handle.CanCollide = false
local HandleParts = tool.Handle:GetChildren()
for _, Objects in ipairs(HandleParts) do
if Objects:IsA("BasePart") then
Objects.Transparency = 1
Objects.CanCollide = false
end
end

local Attachment2 = Instance.new("Attachment",LAG_BALLTROLL)
Attachment2.Name = "YEETPOWERGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

game:GetService("Debris"):AddItem(Force,0.5)
game:GetService("Debris"):AddItem(Attachment2,0.5)
LAG_BALLTROLL.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local Humanoid = hit.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
if Humanoid ~= tool.Parent.Humanoid then
Humanoid:TakeDamage(math.random(1,5))
LAG_BALLTROLL.Sounds.Ello:Stop()

Um what? pathfinding for a flying projectile? Puppynniko 1059 — 2y

Kinda, the ball moves In a straight line, and when It hits something, (I didn't add this effect cuz I don't know why) the ball looses Its anti-gravity effect, and after 1 second pathfind Its vicitim whom got hit, but I mean, I am Intrested In pathfinding flying projectiles imnotaguest1121 362 — 2y

The reason why it follows the player's torso at all times and not just shoot at the old torso position is that you're getting the torso position inside the loop. Instead, define the torso outside the loop.
local torso_pos = hit.Parent.Torso.Position
while task.wait() do
if not StopIt_GetSomeHelp then
StopIt_GetSomeHelp = true
local ZePath = PathFinding:CreatePath()
ZePath:ComputeAsync(LAG_BALLTROLL.Position, torso_pos)
