Hi! This is amazing, but I had a question.. can you maybe make a video explaining how to make an event countdown maybe for like each 15 minute multiple NPC's spawn at a certain area with weapons and you have to kill them? That'd help me so much with my game, I'm really trying to find out how to do that and It'd be amazing knowing how it's possible, Thank you ahead ♥🙏
Great video, keep it up! Could you also make a video of how to make a Pathfinding Enemy NPC w/ a line of sight and if it doesn't see you it does a patrol?
Hey! Thanks a lot! I had a question ... What if you want to have a safe place where the npc will not attack you and turns around to walk back to its set area? And what if you want then to randomly walk around a little bit? Thanks!
@@xtremelegogaming3065 theres something called magnitude that is used to measure the distance between two points. Simply subtract the position of the npc's primary part from the position of the player's character's primary part and index it with "Magnitude" [case-sensitive] to get the distance. If the distance is greater than 50 (assuming 50 is the max distance that the npc can be from the player) you can program it to move back to its area using simple movement, or pathfinding. If you dont want it to stray too far from its spawn point/area, you can use the same method/concept of magnitude to make it move back to its spawn point after it is distanced enough from it.
sombody else posted the script not sure if it works tho local char = script.Parent local hrp = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart") local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid") local sword = char:WaitForChild("ClassicSword") local be = char:WaitForChild("ToolBe") local players = game:GetService("Players") local function finClosestPlayersHrp(myHrp, distOfInt) local closestHrp = nil for _, ply in pairs(players:GetChildren()) do local plyChar = ply.Character or ply.CharacterAdded:Wait() local plyHrp = plyChar:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart") local tmpDis = (myHrp.Position - plyHrp.Position).Magnitude if tmpDis < distOfInt then closestHrp = plyHrp distOfInt = tmpDis end end return closestHrp end while wait(.1) do local closestHrp = finClosestPlayersHrp(hrp, 20) if closestHrp then hum:EquipTool (sword) wait(1) while closestHrp.Parent.Humanoid.Health > 0 do hum:MoveTo(closestHrp.Position, closestHrp) be:Fire() wait(.2) end hum:UnequipTools() else hum:UnequipTools() end end

Hello! Thanks a lot for the tutorial but I am having a problem, the sword will not deal damage the the player, I have no idea how to fix this could you help?
I got a question regarding the animation. I did every step correctly and no errors are shown in the output, but my Dummy follows me without any animation, and just sometimes twiches its foot, but no other animation. Can you maybe help me fix this?
can you explain what ply.Character or ply.CharacterAdded actully do, because i looked into the object browser but i didn't find anything like Character or CharacterAdded
Yeah, that is unusual, so the character belongs to the player, but sometimes, like when the game is starting or you are respawning, the Character isn't ready yet (it's not attached to the player). If you do something like: local char = player.Character and the character isn't ready, char = nil. No bueno. But if you do: local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait() the script stops (and waits) until the CharacterAdded event is fired, which fires when the character is added. Since you waited there in the script, player.Character will have the value of the character when the script moves to the next line. So, char will have the value of the Character.
Thank you for this. This is the first thing I've created! It works great the first time but Dummy doesn't do anything after it kills me and I respawn or if I manage to get away from him. Is there something I need to add to the code?
Oh wow, that’s one of the hardest ones. I don’t remember it well but it should keep coming after you. Run it with the output window open to see if it prints any errors to the screen. If you are outside of the distance of interest it won’t detect you. Maybe the distance of interest isn’t getting reset after it kills you. When the dummy searchers for someone and it returns nil if no one is there it should reset the dist to the default value, maybe 50 or something

I didn't know this was available but that sounds like a great tool. I'll look for it tomorrow. Dummy works prefect the first go around. Then when I approach him he just stands there and I let him kill me by running into his sword 😀 It seems like the loop is broken. I can post the code for both scripts if it helps.

Do you know anyway to make it so it stops trying to attack you once you are already far away and secondly how do you make it so it stops spamming the swing/lunge and only do it once every 2 seconds

Is there a way that I can make the enemy use special attacks that are from the weapon? Like when the player presses q, it will trigger a special attack
Maybe you can use Math.Random to set a range, select a number from that range to create probability, and then if that number is chosen, it will use the special attack in the weapon code. Since enemies can’t press Q, you’ll have to make the function play when the number is selected, I haven’t tested this, but this just came off the top of my head, try it out
@@SimTekGameDevelopment Uh yes, line 19 was always the error. I can't remember if it was on the sword code or your code. Like line 19 was always the error no matter what line 19 was; even just an empty line was still an error.

@@MechanicNull I just get the animate script from my player character when I play the game. When you copy the script, make sure you turn the game off first before pasting it, or it will disappear.
Awesome video SimTek, I have done all the steps corrrect and the NPC works on one of my creations on studio, but what's really odd is that when I copy the NPC and add it to my game I get this error "Character is not a valid member of LocalScript "Players.LocalScript". It's really hard to solve and I would appreciate some help, thanks for reading!
I don’t think I use any local scripts in that video. You might have a rouge local script. You could search on “LocalScript” in the explorer window and rename any script that says LocalScript to something unique, that way the error will give you the name of the script where the error is happening. Gets you closer to the problem

Is players spelled the same as when you defined it? What does the error say because that part looks ok
Same
Does it only work on dummys cause i use the load in characters and i did everything but mine dint walk
can maybe help you
Is there a way that I can make the enemy use special attacks that are from the weapon? Like when the player presses q, it will trigger a special attack
Maybe you can use Math.Random to set a range, select a number from that range to create probability, and then if that number is chosen, it will use the special attack in the weapon code.
Since enemies can’t press Q, you’ll have to make the function play when the number is selected,
I haven’t tested this, but this just came off the top of my head, try it out
hey, i followed all the steps and it doesnt work for me

Please help; mine moves around with the sword chasing me but not actually dealing damage
Do you have any errors in the output window?
@@SimTekGameDevelopment Uh yes, line 19 was always the error. I can't remember if it was on the sword code or your code. Like line 19 was always the error no matter what line 19 was; even just an empty line was still an error.

hey can you just paste the whole script in the comment pls 🙏ik I wont learn that way but I really dont care about learning I just wanna have a fun game lol
Need a little help. every time i spawn a dummy its missing an animate script.
If possible, Could you send the animate script code?
@@MechanicNull I just get the animate script from my player character when I play the game. When you copy the script, make sure you turn the game off first before pasting it, or it will disappear.
@@SimTekGameDevelopment Oh ok thank you.
Your the first ever youtuber to reply to my comment on their own video.
Thanks Alot.
Mine does damage but wont move :/
Double check if the humanoidRootPart is still anchored. That gets me all the time
@@SimTekGameDevelopmentI FIXED IT!!! but the sword wont swing :/
wait its not moving anymore
this is crazy
could have just put the script in the description its not that hard if u typed it all out
not all heroes wear cape.
I love that comment!
@@SimTekGameDevelopment Can you make script to assign NPC to a specific team?
Mine isn't anchored, it does damage but it won't move
did you unanchor the humanoid root part
Hours npc coding be like:
Impossible to keep up whit it and there was some fails that I can't fixs
It does not work he not move and not shoot it took me so long and now I’m sad pls help
Bro I’m sad because I deleted the npc with the script and now I have to do it again but it’s no point because it does not work
I feel very sad sad
Of you make another video to help that make me happy
does this work for r6?
edit: it doesnt work on r6 i tried it
damn
Awesome video SimTek, I have done all the steps corrrect and the NPC works on one of my creations on studio, but what's really odd is that when I copy the NPC and add it to my game I get this error "Character is not a valid member of LocalScript "Players.LocalScript". It's really hard to solve and I would appreciate some help, thanks for reading!
I don’t think I use any local scripts in that video. You might have a rouge local script. You could search on “LocalScript” in the explorer window and rename any script that says LocalScript to something unique, that way the error will give you the name of the script where the error is happening. Gets you closer to the problem
@@SimTekGameDevelopment thank you for the answer, I'll try it out
@@SimTekGameDevelopment Thanks again for the help and the answer, i tried it and it worked. It have been very often I've contacted roblox devs and asked for help but have just got ignored. I really really appreciate it and you earned a new subscriber!

Just make the appropriate changes for R6.
