NPC sinking through ground while trying to follow player

Question

Hello! So I have a level in my game where an enemy is trying to chase after the player. I know this question has been asked a hundred times, but I haven't been able to use the information in those answers. What my issue is is, is that when my enemy chases after my character, he started to sink through the floor as he walks while tilting upwards, until he disappears. I am currently using a box collider on him, although I've used a rigidbody and charactercontroller up to this point, which didn't work. Here is my my code below- using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine; using UnityStandardAssets.Characters.FirstPerson; public class MovingScript : MonoBehaviour { private Animator anim; public GameObject player; public float dist; //active runs the corrutine public bool active; //deactive keeps the corrutine from rerunning public bool deactive; public float movespeed = 10f; public Transform player2; // Use this for initialization void Start() { active = true; anim = GetComponent<Animator>(); player = GameObject.Find("FPSController"); deactive = false; if (active == true) { StartCoroutine(Run()); } } // Update is called once per frame void Update() { float dist = Vector3.Distance(player.transform.position, transform.position); print("The player is:" + dist); if (deactive == false) { anim.Play("CombatIdle"); } if (deactive == true && dist >= 3) { transform.LookAt(player2.position); transform.Translate(-transform.forward * movespeed * Time.deltaTime); anim.Play("Walk"); } else if (deactive == true && dist <= 3) { anim.Play("CombatIdle"); } } IEnumerator Run() { //five seconds of dialogue yield return new WaitForSeconds(5); deactive = true; active = false; } }

Are you sure it rigidbody doesn't work? If you want a script that doesnt require any effort, and you can attach to do this; Attach a nav mesh agent to a capsule, with rigidbody, and make a new script and put this on it.

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 using UnityEngine.AI;
 
 public class aiscript : MonoBehaviour {
 
     void Update () {
         transform.GetComponent<NavMeshAgent>().destination = GameObject.FindWithTag("Player").transform.position;
     }
 }

Also MAKE SURE YOU MAKE THE OBJECTS STATIC THAT YOU WANT THE ENEMY NOT TO GO Through, then in nagivation tab click bake
