"Position is not a valid member of Vector3" what's wrong with path?

Asked by 1 year ago
Edited 1 year ago

Hello, I'm tried to make a pathfinding for my npc, but something isn't working, I tried to find the path but... "Position is not a valid member of Vector3", please how do I fix this? My script is below

local myHuman = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local myRoot = script.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local head = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Neck")
local lowerTorso = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Torso")

local clone = script.Parent:Clone()

function findPath(target)
    local path = game:GetService("PathfindingService"):CreatePath()
    path:ComputeAsync(myRoot.Position,target.Position)
    local waypoints = path:GetWaypoints()

    if path.Status == Enum.PathStatus.Success then
        for _, waypoint in ipairs(waypoints) do
            myHuman:MoveTo(waypoint.Position)
            local timeOut = myHuman.MoveToFinished:Wait(1)
            if not timeOut then
                print("Path too long!")
                findPath(target)
                break
            end
            if checkSight(target) then
                repeat
                    print("Moving directly to the target")
                    myHuman:MoveTo(target.Position)
                    attack(target)
                    wait(0.05)
                    if target == nil then
                        break
                    elseif target.Parent == nil then
                        break
                    end
                until checkSight(target) == false or myHuman.Health < 1 or target.Parent.Humanoid.Health < 1
                break
            end
            if (myRoot.Position - waypoints[1].Position).magnitude > 20 then
                print("Target has moved, generating new path")
                findPath(target)
                break
            end
        end
    end

    local ray = Ray.new(myRoot.Position, (target.Position - myRoot.Position).Unit * 40)
    local hit,position = workspace:FindPartOnRayWithIgnoreList(ray, {script.Parent})
    if hit then
        if hit:IsDescendantOf(target.Parent) and math.abs(hit.Position.Y - myRoot.Position.Y) < 3 then
            print("I can see the target")
            return true

and error

Well, I'm assuming one of your variables is already a Vector3 which means it is already a position in world space so you do not need to index it with .Position. In the error message it should specify a line number, so remove the .Position in that line.
