Custom NPCs Mod lets you bring your world to life by creating your own unique characters. You can build entire adventures with a complete quest system, custom dialogues, and different NPC roles. This mod provides all the tools you need to design characters, give them jobs, and even set up factions for them to belong to. It works for both singleplayer worlds and multiplayer servers.

Features:

Create new NPCs and customize everything about them, including their health, strength, skin, and AI.
Build interactive stories with a detailed dialogue and quest system.
Organize your NPCs into factions, and assign them specific roles and jobs.

Clone your favorite NPCs with the Npc Cloner to quickly populate areas.

A Carpentry Bench allows for the creation of custom recipes.

Extra Items

The other items are mostly just for dressing up your npc or for quests. Some of them actually work for players, but I didnt want to put too much time in them so most of them are pretty simple.

Dagger, Spear, BattleAxe, Mace, Glaive, Scythe and Trident

For the most part are exactly like swords. They are enchantable. The bronze variant does the same amount of damage as the iron one, but is less durable. The emerald does a half heart more damage than the diamond one, but is less durable.

Guns and bullets

You hold the right mouse button to pull the trigger, when you hear click you can release it to shoot. Your gun type depends how far you can shoot. Guns can shoot their ammo and all the ammo of lesser quality wood and black bullets are the same. So an wooden gun can shoot black and wood bullits, a stone gun can shoot stone,wood and black etc.

The base damage for guns are 2,5 hearts. The damage added to that is (gun material + bullet material) / 2. So a wood gun with wood bullets does 2,5 damage, a stone gun with wood bullits does 2,5 damage an stone gun with stone bullets does 3 damage. Wood = 0, Stone = 0.5, Gold = 0.5, Bronze&Iron = 1, Diamond = 1.5, Emerald = 2

Machine Gun

Holding right click will shoot 8 black bullets in rapid succesion. After shooting 8 bullits you need to hold right click again to reload, before you can shoot again. Every bullit hit does 2 hearts of damage.

(Elemental) Staffs and mana

The different types of staffs have different ‘casting’ time the elemental and iron staffs are basically the same. Holding the right mouse button will start charging. If you have mana in your inventory it will create a ‘magical’ projectile. The moment you release the right mouse button it will launch it.

The base damage for the projectiles is 3 + random 0-2 + Material type damage.

Shields

Normal shields and round shields are the same. Heater, Tower, Cryscent and Scutum are the same as iron. Holding right mouse button while holding a shield will make the shield absorb all the damage.
