A suprisingly good NPC that I made.

it has support for all animations that players use.

Spawn it with a spawn egg! /giveme npc:spawnegg

Currently they have 4 states: walking and standing
1.) Standing around - they'll just sit there and stare at you
2.) Walking around - they'll just walk around randomly
3.) Attacking - When you punch them, they'll chase after you, and mob up
4.) Super Hostile - from 0 through 6000 they'll chase after you

Cool, now we can have NPC's! In future, would it be possible for the player to give NPC's order's to craft, build and harvest, or even mine for the player?

Nice!

I updated it, now mobs have 2 states, walking, and standing!

When they're standing, they'll stare at you!

They can navigate the terrain aimlessly by themselves!

Spawn 'em with spawn eggs! /giveme npc:spawnegg

will be that would work if it were done with animals?

by **Comp52** » Tue Dec 11, 2012 14:15

sweet. Now I'm going to make Herobrine. Or endermen, since the whole thing about them staring at you if you're close could be endermen-esque.

I changed the lowres character.png for the steve.png that's included, and i got this:

add more than 1 NPC, make them have different skins
i was going to do that by copying out init.lua out many times but i know there are more efficient ways of doing it.
can you make folders to put the textures in and provide a basic "modding environment" so people can set their own nodenames, models and descriptions. make a "list" that you can add to init.lua and make so looks like this:
npc:<npcname> <textures> <description>

T-600 npc (not finished):

Maybe you should think about using the Simple Mobs API.

yea sure, someone should make me a horse and i'll make a horse mob

by **lkjoel** » Tue Dec 11, 2012 19:52

nice mod!

by **markveidemanis** » Tue Dec 11, 2012 21:39

if you could not assign any texture to the extra added npcs, but make a folder containing the "chosen" textures, that would be great.

at last we can have honeydew and xephos in minetest!

by **Inocudom** » Tue Dec 11, 2012 22:40

Is there a way to make it so that mobs and NPCs will fight each other?

It would be nice if we could give the NPCs personalities along the lines of what is present in The Sims series (and even pick their skins.)

by **jordan4ibanez** » Tue Dec 11, 2012 23:57

Can someone make a minecraft-like zombie pose for player? so i can make some zombies.

now mobs naturally spawn

I wish there was a way to set each entity to have it's own light value

by **Sokomine** » Wed Dec 12, 2012 02:08

Great :-) Now they have to learn some behaviour (moving around, interacting with players) and be merged with some other mods (towntest like someone mentioned) and the inhabitants I dream of could come true :-)

by **Josh** » Wed Dec 12, 2012 02:13

The NPC's can also have personalities, like getting scared of monster's.
They could also play the game like singleplayer, like building a house mining for ore's, basicly copying singleplayer :)
EDIT: Im thinking of making them work in my underwater base lol. :D
EDIT2: The NPC's work great! I am making one monitor my war room, but he is jumping around lol :)

Is it possible to make the player have a different texture than the NPC. When I tried to put separate textures the NPC texture is also on the regular player.

by **Ragnar** » Thu Dec 13, 2012 11:59

idk...

by **jojoa1997** » Thu Dec 13, 2012 15:36

Also can you have the npc follow you with the command /npcfollow <name>

by **jordan4ibanez** » Thu Dec 13, 2012 17:35
