NPC's are not moving

I just purchased this program a couple days ago and i cant seen to figure out how to get my npcs to move/chase the person they are attacking. 

 

i have        

"Is this a stationary NPC? [true/false]": false,

and they still dont move. 

Can anyone help me out?

Sorry to hear you're having issues with that @Rubbie Ducker.

Which NPCs are you having this problem with specifically? What is their chase range and sense range?

Also make sure if you are testing it yourself that you are not in vanish. Once you are closer and especially when you've attacked or gotten the NPC to aggro to you they should definitely be chasing and moving around.

You just got the file right? Can you confirm the version of NpcSpawn and BetterNpc?

Hey!

they are npcs i have in my custom monument.  the monument is a building i have built in the sky to use as a dungeon.

i have betterNpc 1.2.8 and npcSpawn 2.6.1

Here is one NPC i am trying to hae move around and chase when attacking someone.

} 

First you may need to increase the radius.

   "Radius": 20.0,

Second you have only 3 positions but you have between 10 and 20 to spawn, this also should be addressed.

      "Minimum numbers - Day": 10,
      "Maximum numbers - Day": 20,
      "Minimum numbers - Night": 10,
      "Maximum numbers - Night": 20,

      "Own list of locations (not used for Road and Biome)": [
        "(-0.53, -0.01, 0.45)",
        "(-1.48, 0.00, 21.65)",
        "(18.72, -0.01, 0.20)"
      ],

Try addressing those as I think possibly the radius might be a part of the issue as it's very small at the moment.

Once you've done that reload the plugin and share all of the loading messages here from your console @Rubbie Ducker.

i changed the radius to 150  and  also changed the spawn from 2 to 20 

they still are not moving. 

 the npcs with ranged weapons will attack me when i come in range but they dont move or roam around or anything. Same with the npcs with melee weapons i just need to be in melee range

Show some screenshots of the location of these NPCs. It might be something to do with where they are being spawned into, they may not be able to actually walk there perhaps.

Plugin seems to have loaded properly.

here is a video i took 

 

and here are some screenshots.

 

 

Ah I thought it might be something like that. NPCs can't path (walk) on player built prefabs from in game or CopyPaste. I can't remember if they work if you place it in the editor when making the map but it would probably be safe to assume not. If this was built or placed in the editor then you could confirm that it doesn't @Rubbie Ducker.

hmm... ok i guess ill have to use humannpc for my melee npcs and better npc for my ranged ones i guess. thank you.

Can this be added in the future?

 

I think this is one of those things that isn't really possible. There are certain prefabs that NPCs just can't navigate or walk on. But with planning in advance things can be added in the editor so that they can. If an appropriate trigger was set for them to walk on, similar to the cubes that they also cannot walk on, they can walk in places like this. But it's just not in their base code at all to be able to do it, so to teach them would require enough of a change in the plugin that I can pretty much guarantee it would be a performance hit, probably a considerably large hit. I will forward it as a thought though perhaps KpucTaJl will have additional ideas.
