NPCLib – Basic non-player character library.

This is an API made specifically for spigot servers (Minecraft). Current supported versions: 1.8 - 1.13.2. 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 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!

Click here to download the latest release.

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

   // Creating a new NPC instance.
   NPC npc = lib.createNPC(skin, lines);

   // Then let the library generate the necessary packets.
   npc.create(location);

   // You are all set! You can now show/hide it to/from players.
   npc.show(player);
   npc.hide(player);

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

Events

Events you may want to use are NPCSpawnEvent, NPCDestroyEvent and NPCInteractEvent.

Building your own version

1. Download or clone this repository.
