How to make a NPC back off?
Im to make a NPC which holds guns and shoots, but it will stay at a distance. How do I take the torso (which the gun holder is gonna move to) position and subtract the position with -5,0,0?
(this is the script)
hue = script.Parent.Torso
while wait(1) do
for i, v in pairs(workspace:GetChildren()) do
if v:IsA("Model") then
z=v:FindFirstChild("ishuman")
if z then
for i, b in pairs(z.Parent:GetChildren()) do
if b:IsA("Model") then
if b.Name == v.Name then
z1 = b:FindFirstChild("Torso")
if (z1.Position - hue.Position).magnitude <= 20 then
script.Parent.Humanoid:MoveTo() -- the players torsos position with Z posotion subtracted by 5
end
end
end
end
end
end
end
end

You questions isn't well written and I'm not sure if what I am going to answer will be correct, but I will give it a go.
If you want to move your NPC -5 in the X axis, then you would do this:
game.Workspace.NPC.PrimaryPart = game.Workspace.NPC.Torso -- Lets MoveTo() know what to move game.Workspace.NPC:MoveTo(game.Workspace.NPC.Torso.Position - Vector3.new(-5,0,0)
game.Workspace.NPC.Torso.Position signifies the Position of Torso to be subtracted by the Vector3
Above uses the method :MoveTo. This moves models, and is found in the Wiki here. I suggest using :MoveTo instead of :SetPrimaryPartCFrame because :MoveTo will not force it inside of a part, but on top if one is in the way.
Of course, you didn't give us any scripts so this wouldn't exactly be what you would use continuously push the NPC back if the player is too close.
