npcs sliding
not sure what happened but i noticed throughout my play through NPC's are getting stuck in a walking animation but instead of the animation fully playing through they are just stuck like that and end up not moving to whatever place they were supposed to, what to do

Just to clarify to make sure i understand:

Are they teleporting?

X <-here to here-> X

Sliding?

XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

Or just walking in place?

X

If they are teleporting, this can happen if the pathing is unable to complete properly. Such as if somebody is blocking a doorway. That's just a matter of too many npcs sometimes.

If they are sliding then i'd like to ask if you installed any mods that include animations? And did you run Fnis?

If they are just walking in place, try saving your game and using the console command to enter

TAI

That's "tea aye eye".

It's possible that the AI became stuck somehow. If that does not fix it, reload the save.

Sounds like a animation glitch.
A few things to try, verify files, make sure the game is capped to 60 fps or below, and did
you remove any mods recently?
And do you use mods in general, also specifically animation mods.

They slide half way then thye dont move at all, and it gets them stuck in some frozen walking animation that stops them from moving, i have no mods

Then try verifying files in Steam.

Definitely try verifying files then as hazak suggested.

Edit: Hazak ninja "quoted" himself before i could.

0 mods, never had any installed, the only thing I did was change graphic settings to ulra high since I was playing on low to reduce the sound of the fan.

Moonwalk mod? Low fps? too many background programs running?

File integrity is fine, the game seems to work now after I restarted it, maybe it was some FOV setting glitch since the characters were freezing up near the doors when they were exiting a specific area.
Thanks

FOV can't do that, but regardless it is good that it stopped happening.
