Hello, I followed the rather complex tutorial to perform the update.
The bots on the roads and in the biomes are no longer behaving correctly; they're glitching. I'm standing right next to them and my attacks are just hitting nothing.

And now I'm getting this error in the server console.

The old version was, in my opinion, much better.

Could you help me?

Hello, could you add me to the discord for a real-time dialogue? @shrpndfcsd If this is inconvenient for you for any reason, please send some files, also if you have backup BetterNpc before upgrading to new versions of plugins, attach them too.
oxide/config/NpcSpawn.json
oxide/config/NpcSpawn_old.json
oxide/config/BetterNpc.json
oxide/config/BetterNpc_old.json
folder: oxide/data/BetterNpc/
folder: oxide/data/BetterNpc_old/
folder: oxide/data/NpcSpawn/

I just installed version 2.1.5.
I no longer have any errors in the console.

However, I lost all my BetterNPC settings (these annoying upgrades are so frustrating). I spent ages setting up my NPCs... How can I easily recover all my settings? Here's a simple example with the Arctic biome.
On the left is the old version, on the right is the updated version.

Hello, I wrote to you, send a backup if you have 😉 configs NpcSpawn and BetterNpc, data files: oxide/data/BetterNpc

@Nambo1641
I want to point out that you did well, because you stopped doing anything at the first error, it kept your backup files in good condition, which is rare. Save the files that were sent to me just in case.: NpcSpawn_old.json, BetterNpc_old.json and data files folder: BetterNpc_old. Also, for the future, I advise you to manually backup all plugin files, just in case of major updates, this may be useful 😉

Now let's move on to exactly what you need to do to make everything work without any problems with your old settings..

you must delete from server (if exist):

files:
oxide/plugins/NpcSpawn.cs
oxide/plugins/BetterNpc.cs
oxide/plugins/UpdaterNpcSpawn.cs
oxide/plugins/UpdaterBetterNpc.cs
oxide/config/NpcSpawn.json
oxide/config/NpcSpawn_old.json
oxide/config/BetterNpc.json
oxide/config/BetterNpc_old.json

folders:
oxide/data/BetterNpc
oxide/data/BetterNpc_old
oxide/data/NpcSpawn/Preset

then simply select all the files in my archive and transfer them to the oxide/ folder, confirm the file replacement, then transfer the NpcSpawn.cs file from the archive with the NpcSpawn plugin that you downloaded from codefling to the oxide/plugins/ folder, wait for the download to be successful without errors, then from the archive with the BetterNpc plugin that you downloaded from codefling, transfer the BetterNpc.cs file to the oxide/plugins/ folder, wait for the download to be successful, make sure there were no errors, then check the NPCs and their loot in the game

Wow, great, thank you so much for your help.

This update caused me a bit of trouble, but you were able to resolve my problem very quickly, and I thank you for that.

Yes, I always back up my data to make sure I have everything working.

And especially to be able to revert to the previous version if necessary.

You did well  😉 I forgot to mention that you had an error most likely because of your hosting, because you did not have a Custom folder in your BetterNpc folder, it is empty by default, and there are hosting services that either do not allow you to upload an empty folder to the server or delete them automatically, and UpdaterBetterNpc most likely cursed at its absence.. That's my guess. You can check if you currently have a Custom folder on the server (oxide/data/BetterNpc/Custom/), if not, then I'm right, because I created it to update your files and it's in my archive, which I sent you 😉

Indeed, in my backup, I don't have the custom folder.
