const speed = 100
const ChaseSpeed = 700
@onready var nav_agent = $NavigationAgent2D
var waypoint = 1
var target = waypoint1
@export var waypoint1: Node2D
@export var waypoint2: Node2D
@export var waypoint3: Node2D
@export var waypoint4: Node2D
@export var waypoint5: Node2D
var agro = false
@export var Player: Node2D

# Called when the node enters the scene tree for the first time.
func _ready():
	pass
# Called every frame. 'delta' is the elapsed time since the previous frame.
func _process(delta):
	var dir = to_local(nav_agent.get_next_path_position()).normalized() 
	if self.global_position == target.global_position:
		if waypoint == 5:
			waypoint = 1
		else:
			waypoint += 1
	
	if agro:
		target = Player
	elif waypoint == 1:
		target = waypoint1
	elif  waypoint == 2:
		target = waypoint2
	elif waypoint == 3:
		target = waypoint3
	elif waypoint == 4:
		target = waypoint4
	else:
		target = waypoint5

func makepath():
	nav_agent.target_position = target.global_position

func _on_timer_timeout():
	makepath()

Not sure if this will fix it but try adding @onready to var target = waypoint1.
