NPCLib – Basic non-player character library.

This is an API made specifically for spigot servers (Minecraft). Current supported versions: 1.7.10* - 1.13.2. Lightweight replacement for Citizens. NPCLib only uses packets instead of registering the entity in the actual Minecraft server.

*NPCLib has basic support for 1.7.10, as it not currently support multi-line text for this version (yet).

Usage

It is recommended to shade npclib-api-v*.jar into your plugin. Alternatively, you can put npclib-plugin-v*.jar under your plugins folder. By doing this, you no longer need to shade the API JAR. Though, do not forget to add NPCLib as a dependency in your plugin.yml!
