I can’t view the code, if you could post it here I could be more of a help.

But from what I can tell you’re likely trying to subtract a number from a Vector3 value. Try removing the subtraction sign and see if it goes away. If it does then subtract the value some other way.

You are trying to subtract a Number from a Vector3 value. "monster.Position" is a vector3 value and cannot be in the same arithmetic as a different type of value (number)

Try: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ if monster.Position.****Magnitude**** - handle.Position.Magnitude < 5 then ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Adding magnitude will convert the vector3 into a single number.

idk why the formatting didnt work, heres the block of code: if monster.Position.Magnitude - handle.Position.Magnitude < 5 then candykid44 40 — 2y
