Selecting Multiple Targets in cone

[calm kettle]

My problem is because I wrote the code to see if my character is inside of cone of my npc. But how can I make that for multiple targets? To check if some models are inside this range of cone for example?

You should make your script npc oriented and not character oriented

Basically you'll have to rewrite the script so that your NPC checks each render stepped for the people in the range, and not a script for each player that joined

In that case I need to loop through my mobs folder and check if they are inside my fov?

[errant fable]

Well

It depends what you want

Here is the example of reworked code

Is it ok?

[errant fable]

You should organise your code in several functions

[calm kettle]

I'm trying to check every time when my tower attack if mobs are inside my cone aoe

[errant fable]

Wait

So what you want is to have a tower that attacks mob in their cone ?

[calm kettle]

yes

[errant fable]

Like a tower defense game ?

[calm kettle]

Yes, it is

[errant fable]

Well you can calculate locally for each tower who is in their range and shot them

But that will cost a lot of server resources

So basically if someone puts 1000 turrets in their game that may cause server lags

So, then my method is not so good?

The way you are detecting is perfect but it really depends on what you need exactly

[calm kettle]

Here won't be more than 100 towers for sure

I need just to check which mobs are inside my cone when my tower attack

[errant fable]

Alr

I read your code

And it is great but you're overcomplicating things

[calm kettle]

Very probably

[errant fable]

I think you don't need the mob inside variable since looping through children won't pass twice on a mob

[calm kettle]

oh, my bad xD

[errant fable]

You can however do a capping for mobs with like a number that decrease that is the max mobs a tower can damage

[calm kettle]

I forgot that I receive the models

[errant fable]

Lol don't apologise it's totally fine

But yea basically you can just do

for _, mob in next, mobFolder:GetChildren() do
  tower:damageMob(mob)
end

And you can use Oop for your towers if they have different properties and stuff

It would make your life easier
