NPC slides when moving, need it to walk

[umbral lodge]

hey, hopefully this is an easy fix, please help! i have a block rig that moves around fine but it does not do the walk animation, it slides around

[strong topaz]

Well could you provide the script in which you play the walk animation

[umbral lodge]

local rig = script.Parent
local humanoid = rig.Humanoid
local root = rig.HumanoidRootPart

wait(3)

while true do
waitTime = math.random(1, 10)
wait(waitTime)

randomX = math.random(-30, 100) 
randomZ = math.random(-30, 100)

print("X is:", randomX)
print("Z is:", randomZ)

local targetPosition = root.Position + Vector3.new(randomX, 0, randomZ)

humanoid:MoveTo(targetPosition)
humanoid.MoveToFinished:Wait()

end

Well I never made a Npc using the default roblox rig but I am pretty sure that you have to play the animation yourself.

chatgpt gave me this script and it seemed to work

local humanoid = script.Parent.Humanoid
local animator = humanoid.Animator

local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://180426354"

local track = animator:LoadAnimation(animation)

humanoid.Running:Connect(function(speed)
if speed > 0 then
track:Play()
else
track:Stop()
end
end)

first week scripting so just trying to learn haha. Why this small code may take me about a half hour to wrap my head around

[strong topaz]

I wouldn't recommend using chatgpt to code something for you then like this -

Only ask ai to teach you something not to make you something

[umbral lodge]

but, is not seeing how its made not one way to learn?

it seems people learn to script from videos which make things for them

[strong topaz]

The important thing is: In these videos they also get explained how it is made

so you can understand it

[umbral lodge]

well typically i ask chatgpt after it makes something for me how each bit of code works

[errant venture]

** You are now Level 1! **

[umbral lodge]

so i have it make smth for me then spend some time reading and remaking what it made for me a few times

how did you learn?

[strong topaz]

I watched tutorials and tried to replicate what they did in those tutorials but slightly different.

[umbral lodge]

How many games u made/how long u been scripting

i am trying to make a hood style game

[strong topaz]

1 year now. I've only made one crappy game but im working on a decent (In my opinion) game now.

🧐 🧐 🧐 🧐 🧐 🧐 🧐

the problem is that

chat gpt is dum

dummy

he doesnt know how to script

if u use him to make and explain everything for you

he WILL

make a script that wont work

and explain the script that is not working in a way that it looks like it should work

If there's one thing that GPT chat is good at, it's explaining things in a convincing way.

It happens quite often

i cant even count how many times i was struggling with something and chatgpt straight up just made it even more confusing

something he IS GOOD

is in math

that i cant deny

but on scripting logic he is ass

[umbral lodge]

What do you know

U haven't even scripted before
