Your looking for collision groups

Collisions | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub

Explains methods to detect physical collisions, handle collision events, and fine-tune which objects collide with others.

basically they start from the left

#

then the path is just straight in the end

Do they have any obstacles that your using the pathfinding to avoid?

#

no, its weird that they keep going offtrack

#

look

#

heres how they move lol

#

I'm not sure why they are doing that, very weird. Instead of using pathfinding, could you just have them directly walk to the end portal?

i tried using moveto

#

they stop in the middle

#

idk which obstacle lol

#

with moveto, its very clear now but still stops

#

And if you push them to the side with a part, they would continue on?

#

I'd try to select that point in space with studio. If the part is locked you might have to search through the workspace or use a raycast to figure out whats there
