NPCLib – Basic non-player character library.

This is an API made specifically for spigot servers (Minecraft). Current supported versions: 1.8 - 1.12. Lightweight replacement for Citizens. NPCLib only uses packets instead of registering the entity in the actual Minecraft server.

Usage

It is recommended to shade NPCLib-API-v*.jar into your plugin. Alternatively, you may put NPCLib-Plugin-v*.jar under your plugins folder. By using this option, you do not need to shade the API JAR anymore. Though, do not forget to add NPCLib as a dependency in your plugin.yml!

You can download the latest release here.

    // First we define our (global) library variable.
    // This is usually done in the onEnable method.
    NPCLib lib = new NPCLib(plugin);

   // Creating an NPC.
   NPC npc = lib.createNPC(skin, lines);

   // The generate the packets for the NPC.
   npc.create(location);

   // Then *finally* you can show/hide it to/from players.
   npc.show(player);
   npc.hide(player);

   // If you do not use the NPC anymore, destroy the NPC accordingly.
   npc.destroy();

Usable events: NPCSpawnEvent, NPCDestroyEvent and NPCInteractEvent.
