@south quarry how are you giving the location

/npc create -c for center may help

or --at x:y:z

[south quarry]

Oh i am sorry.

I am using API

For some reason I cant figure out how to make the api works lol, everything works great with commands

/npc path How does that work with the API?

@south quarry what's your code

https://github.com/CitizensDev/Citizens2/blob/master/main/src/main/java/net/citizensnpcs/commands/NPCCommands.java

the /npc path code works with the Waypoints trait

https://jd.citizensnpcs.co

[south quarry]

Ohh gothc

[south quarry]

  public GuardTest spawnEntity(Location location) {
        this.loc = location;

        npc = CitizensAPI.getNPCRegistry().createNPC(EntityType.PLAYER, "Guard");

        id = npc.getId();

        sentinel = npc.getOrAddTrait(SentinelTrait.class);
        if (type == CellGuardType.ATTACK) {
            setSkin();

            sentinel.spawnPoint = loc;
            sentinel.addTarget("players");
            sentinel.chaseRange = 10.0;
            // sentinel.rangedChase = true;

            LinearWaypointProvider provider = new LinearWaypointProvider(npc);
            provider.addWaypoint(new Waypoint(loc));

            npc.data().setPersistent(NPC.Metadata.COLLIDABLE, !npc.data().get(NPC.Metadata.COLLIDABLE, !npc.isProtected()));
        }
        // Set a single point in /npc path. It will stand and guard that spot, and return there when not in combat.
        // npc respawn -1

        npc.spawn(loc);

        return this;
    }

[lucid nacelle]

I would clone your locations as best practice

[south quarry]

Its a TestClass

Will fix it later

@lucid nacelle any reasons for this?

[lucid nacelle]

@south quarry try cloning your locations

LinearWaypointProvider provider = (LinearWaypointProvider) npc.getOrAddTrait(Waypoints.class).getCurrentProvider();

[south quarry]

Will do

@lucid nacelle that works, but spawning them is still a tad bit off

[lucid nacelle]

ok, and what's the location?

[south quarry]

The orange blocks

[lucid nacelle]

no, in java

what is the value of loc

[south quarry]

Oh

Its method value

@lucid nacelle Its weird, they just stop 1 block behind or sometimes they dont

[lucid nacelle]

@south quarry can you print out the value of loc

if you're talking about the waypoint, that's a separate discussion on pathfinding

[south quarry]

Location is definitely correct, because during pathfinding it does go the proper location sometimes.

[lucid nacelle]

you can also use HomeTrait if you want to accomplish this

[south quarry]

Oh

Which is better lol

[lucid nacelle]

pathfinding always pathfinds to the centre of the block

so I need to know what loc is

[south quarry]

Ill send it wait

[lucid nacelle]

yeah, so your location is at the block edge

if you want it centred then center it

if you have an issue with the waypoint, open a new thread
