[FUN] Citizens v1.2 - Human NPCs for Bukkit [1.2.5-R1.0]

is this like an actual bot that you can see or is it just for chat

no download? D:

Nice one. But could you possibly make it so they talk no matter what you hit them with? Perhaps configurable? Thanks for this plugin, been waiting for an NPC plugin for a long time .

/me waits for a download link

Sorry. Had issues with posting. Download up.

An NPC plugin that works with the new minecraft update? Might have to try this out. Would there be any way of combining this with the elements from uQuest? Imagine clicking on an NPC and he gives you a quest to do.

Finally! Dear god it took forever for an NPC plugin that didn't make you jump through hoops, good stuff.

Redownload - added items setting in citizens.locations - now I'm off to bed.

Jeez that was fast. Thanks a lot, fullwall!! I'm testing this out now....


EDIT - It seems that whenever I click on an NPC, it outputs the text twice. Also, when PVP is turned off in a server, it says "You are in a no PVP area" when you left click him. When PVP is turned on in a server, the NPC gets damaged the very first time you left-click it. Maybe make it so you need to right-click it with a book?

Few suggestions for future versions:

-- The name above the NPC should be a different color than white, like blue. Maybe make it an optional setting in the properties file?

-- Text color! It would be awesome if the text was colored, maybe yellow or something. Again, an optional setting in the properties file.

-- Ability to add multiple messages to each NPC. So when the person right-clicks the NPC, it displays one message at a time, and goes in the order you created them.

Yeah, my suggestions only deal with color, but who cares? I'm really looking forward to the progress of this plugin.

Now THIS THIS! has potential.

I agree with aPunch's suggestions. I'd also like to have them speak when you just hit them with your fist, I tried adding 0 to the items list, but that didn't work. I intend to make "FAQ bots" at the spawn-point, for new players, but there's many flaws with having to give out items for the players to be able to talk to the NPC's.

So here's what I'm suggesting:

1) item-list-on: true/false - if set to true, will use the item list to decide which items are used for talking to NPCs, if set to false will make NPCs talk no matter you hit them with.

2) Make 0 in item list count as nothing in the hand. Edit: nvm this, accidently put in 00

I'd also like to see setting multiple text's to a single NPC. So each time you hit the NPC it'll say a different message.

I hope you consider some of these suggestions and thanks again for a great plugin .

This plugin has a lot of potential! I really like, but I had an idea that could possibly improve it. (though I have no idea if it would be possible to implement though, I'm not a coder)

-- They would be a little more useful if they would say something no matter what you hit them with, or if you move inside a radius around them, say, 3 or 4 blocks?

I enjoy this plugin so far, and I look forward to having one of these guys at an "information desk" of sorts at the spawn point in my world. Thanks Fullwall! Great work on your other plugins also!

Sweet. copies your skin, setting item to 0 works. I'm loving this

Listen people! Edit the Citizens.location file and set the current item "340" to "0" if you want to just hit them with nothing for them to talk. Or add all items so they will talk by just hitting them with anything. 0= air

Thanks, but this only makes a people? I really need some traders and so..

get NPCTrader if your looking for shopkeeper npcs

i find it very useful and am going to make some in the spawnjail so people can read the rules

Can you allow us to place a named NPC more than once and have it saved? Like, say I wanted to hide Herobrines all over the world?

Suggestion for extensibility: Make hitting an NPC trigger a custom event, containing NPC id, location, actioning Player / item in hand, number of times this player has hit this NPC, and time since the last hit by this same player.

Would it be possible to treat these NPCs as chests, and to use another plugin to make them behave like shops?

Allow them to move directions. As if they were watching you.

I have another problem that I found:

After setting the text to an NPC, I am able to read it upon left-clicking it. However, some 5 minutes later, no more text appears when I left-click it. I tested it on the Half-Craft server, and players are reporting numerous problems/bugs. Read my previous post for the others found so far.

Just wondering what your plans were for this plugin. will you be adding in allot of the features that craftizens had? Or will this be completely separate?

I was just about to download this and the download link is already dead. Sad face!

Edit: Nevermind, it's working now!

It's probably good news. Fullwall is probably adding something. Or fixing it.

Hehe, making a npc named Steven gives quite a nice npc skin

hey...i have a problem...when im creating a npc it gets created but i cant add text...when i add text with the other command it doesnt do anything either..and when im hitting him he gets hurt once and then nothing happens ( was so looking forward for this kind of plugin but....

Nvm it works thanks so much )

i have that problem too

very nice plugin but...slight issue. I am having the same problem as lopee and lokiman. also, I have WorldGuard installed so every area is no pvp, and when i hit the NPC, nothing happens. I get a message from WorldGuard stating this is a No-PvP area. Then, if I allow PvP, and I hit him, he gets hurt and wont talk to me. If we could use rightclick instead, that would be great or make them not take any damage.

This, is, AWESOME....

joust that, when I hit him, he tells his line twice..

I hope you develope this plugin, it has great potential....

Why do my NPCs disappear if I leave and come back.

I would really enjoy this, neat plugin! Always glad to see what new and exciting things we can add to our house of cards that makes up our collection of bukkit additions.
