My RPG Monster will only follow other monsters, but not me?

So I've made a RPG Mob, but I can't get it to follow me, only other monsters?

My Goblin-Monster's Humanoidname = "Human" And the white one's Humanoidname is = "Humanoid"

My Goblin will only follow other "Mobs" with their Humanoid also named "Humanoid", and therefore I'm wondering why it can't follow me? If I get near it is just idling and does nothing?

Anyways here's my "MobManager" script

001local Module = require(Game.ServerScriptService.MobFunctions)
002 
003local larm = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Left Arm")
004local rarm = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Right Arm")

014--Damage on hit.
015function DamagePlayer(Hit)
016    if Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil and script.Parent.Human.Health > 0 then
017        if Debounce == false then
018            Debounce = true
019            Module.AttackPlayer(script.Parent, Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid"), script.Parent.SETTINGS.MinDmg.Value, script.Parent.SETTINGS.MaxDmg.Value, script.Parent.SETTINGS.HitChance.Value, script.Parent.SETTINGS.CritChance.Value, script.Parent.SETTINGS.CritMagnitude.Value)
020            wait(script.Parent.SETTINGS.CooldownMagnitude.Value/100)
021            Debounce = false
022        --else print("Debouncing")
023        end
024    else
025        return false
026    end

Because the mob test's humanoid is named Humanoid, like yours.. Change the mob test's Humanoid name and I think it should work. Or maybe change the white one's torso name mixgingengerina10 223 — 6y

As said my Humanoidname to the "Testmob" is Humanoid. And still if I remove the Testmob from the game, and nothing is near my "Goblin" except for me, it still wont follow me maxi66666 6 — 6y

This is because you have R15 avatar type probably. Go to your place configuration and change your game Avatar Type to "Morph to R6". OR if you want to keep your avatar type R15, then you need to switch all Torso in your script with UpperTorso.

Try this in the 70s - 90s lines.

It's also the R15 type thing

01function findNearestTorso(pos)
02        local list = Game.Workspace:GetChildren()
03        local torso = nil
04        local dist = script.Parent.SETTINGS.ChaseRange.Value
05        local temp = nil
06            local human = nil
07        local temp2 = nil
08        for x = 1, #list do
09            temp2 = list[x]
10            if (temp2.className == "Model") and (temp2 ~= script.Parent) then
11                temp = temp2:FindFirstChild("Torso")
12                human = temp2:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
13                if (temp ~= nil) and (human ~= nil) and (human.Health > 0) and
14                  (script.Parent.Torso.Position - OrigPos).magnitude <=
15                     script.Parent.SETTINGS.ChaseDistance.Value then
16                       local GetPlayer = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(temp2)
17                         if GetPlayer then
18                    if (temp.Position - pos).magnitude < dist then
19                       torso = temp
20                        dist = (temp.Position - pos).magnitude
21            end
22      end
23     end
24            end
25        end
26        return torso
27    end
