To all - I implemented pathfinding today. Adds loads of possibilities, such as random mob-like npc movement (wandering npcs), random aggro to players (evil npcs), and of course pathfinding itself.

 

cheers i dont think thats in the wiki


although it still isnt writing me as owner in the owners file :/ and still says i dont have permission strange

 

We are looking to improve permissions nodes for the next release.

 

Nice!! really looking forward to checking that out, excellent work on the plugin Fullwall!

 

Awesome! I'm going to go test that right now

EDIT: Ok so I tried it out, but is the format now messed up or am I just not able to figure it out? Because when I set the trader to sell an item, for example stone, it looks like the following:



I used the command " /trader sell 1 1.00 " (With 1 being the item ID and 1.00 being the money amount)
Is this just an error in the formatting, or is it just me? I'm curious because just before the update to version d, I was using version c and it showed up just fine as " The trader is now selling 1 STONE(s) for 1.00 Dollars. "

Also, for some strange reason I can't change the color of my NPC anymore, however, I am the owner of it and can do everything else. Help? Nevermind, I fixed this problem.

 

Updated and things are working perfect.

Suggestions:
1) Config files are very messy at this point, i know its not a big deal for development but they are hard to read at this point and that makes modifications for noobs hard.

2) Make where I can set the plugin to work with integers. BOSEcon does not work with decimals at this point but will when our coder gets some work done on it. But, it would be nice to have that option.

3) Make options to set the prices for each type of repair. I dont like paying the same price for diamond as I would for leather.

4) Make left click with an item, tell you how many uses are left, how much a repair would cost.

I am very happy with this plugin. The npcs are so simple to setup and the process is easy to manage. Love it!

 

@DigitalSil - the pathfinding is in the code, but not actually used anywhere as of yet .
@riuthamus - Citizens uses Register, so double/integer won't matter. Suggestions for splitting up configs?

 

I do have 1.0.8d

 

Then I guess it doesn't work :/.

 

@fullwall

Thanks for the update, works like a charm so far!

 

Okay one more idea, its crazy but I figured I would write it down here for the shits:

Alchemist:
Bring him materials for recipes you create, and he will make items for you.

HOW IT WOULD WORK: [ player ]
1) walk up to the NPC and talk to him, he would give you some options such as:
a) list recipes that can be made
b) start alchemy process
c) whatever else you can think of

2) you choose to list the recipes, the alchemist would talk back and say:
a) ItemName: &7(&f5&7) &fItemName&7, &7(&f5&7) &fItemName&7

3) you choose to start alchemy process, NPC will ask you to input the first item in the recipe
a) you right click the npc with the first item and it is taken away, NPC will ask you for all items needed in order
b) once your complete with adding all the items need you left click the NPC to start the process

4) NPC will then give you the item you made

OPTIONS TO ADD:
1) NPC Alchemy level ( higher levels will be able to craft more, and with less chance to fail )
2) Add a chance to fail based off of the NPC level/skill
3) Add a crafting price that can be configured

 

I think I found a bug...
I use iConomy5 and the trader should sell 30 stone for 90 dollar.
If you keep buying the stone he will start to sell less and less...
So at the beginning he sells 30 stone then 28 then 26, 28, ... , 2
But buying of 30 Stone works fine.

 

Another suggestion i just remembered. Would it be possible to make the NPCs go into sneak mode so I dont see their names from 500 blocks away?

 

@riuthamus - hopefully possible, if the packets are set up right.

 

What about, making groups for NPC limits. This way, you could have Lords or kings or Dukes who could own more NPC's.

 

@fullwall Can you PLEASE have Citizens stop stripping out all the helpful comments from the configuration files? It makes editing them a complete pain in the ass! It doesn't even keep them in the same order afterward.

 

I said that too... but thought it was because i had something missing !

 

@QQCucumber - sorry, that's impossible . Whenever you save a file, it strips out all the comments :/.

 

I just upgraded to 1.0.8d and whenever I try and create a NPC it says

Code:

and the NPC doesnt spawn

 

Why you cant add support of alternative skinbase, like http://minecrack.fr.nf/mc/
I think, it's not so hard

 

@BR3TON - you need the latest version of essentials (2.2.17+).

 

@Yobraza - working on it in conjunction with a client modder.

 

Can't Citizens just re-add the comments on its own?

 

Is there a possibility you could release a build with just the basic NPC's in since we don't use the others on our server and it seems to be causing lag?

 

@QQCucumber - nope. The inbuilt Java properties class doesn't provide that. Maybe I'll look into an alternative.

 

@fullwall I can't seem to get the /npc color command to work. aPunch tells me you removed it due to the 16 character error, but since that's been fixed, can you add it back in please? I'm wanting to implement a client mod that allows npcs to have custom skins by detecting the color code in their name.

 

@QQCucumber - it's not removed, it should work :S.

 

I right clicked 'Guy', did /npc color &3 and nothing happened.

 

Oh. There's no notfication message. Whoops.

 

Does that mean it can be fixed? I'm just a little desperate to get this working before 1.6.
