CustomNPCs

What's changed?

- Fixed the wrong config key being the default for the storage section - Fixed the storage provider never being initialized on the very first launch of the plugin - Fixed the default config being 1 behind the latest, which fixed the aforementioned bug TY to Katsumii for reporting these <3 Cheers! \~ Foxikle

What's Changed

- New storage options: - Local Storage (Default): Stores data in a file on the server. - MySQL: Stores data in a SQL Database (Good if you already have one) - MongoDB: Stores data in a MongoDB document (Ideal) - Conditional Injection (Api only for now): Ensure certain conditions are met prior to spawning the NPC - Support for PluginUpdater - Removed support for very old NPC file versions (<1.6- no known users of the plugin this old) - new command to import data into a storage provider: `/npc movedata <conflict-resolution> - new config fixer to fix NPCs with 0 hologram lines - added support for empty hologram lines with %empty% - the update checker now runs once per hour instead of only on startup

Fixes

- Fixed being able to make NPCs have 0 config lines

Api Changes

- Removed deprecated methods NPCApi#initialize, NPC#setPostion, NPC#setLegacyActions Settings#direction, LegacyAction - Reworked action serialization, [read the wiki for details](https://docs.foxikle.dev/docs/api/Writing-Custom-Actions). - Moved some action condition classes around, most notably Condition#SelectionMode is now Selector - Settings now has a builder - Equipment now uses null for empty slots, not AIR. Setting a slot to air will now set it to null. - CustomNPCs is now in maven central! You no longer need to (and shouldn't) https://repo.foxikle.dev. It will be taken down soon.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Any preset walking paths created before this release are sadly incompatible, and need to be re-recorded. This was because of some glaring issues with storage efficiency that I needed to address. I am sorry for the inconvenience if that effected you. According to my analytics, there are no current uses of the action, though.

Cheers! Foxikle <3

What's Changed

- 26.1 and 26.2 support - Added the new FollowPresetPath Action! - This action allows an NPC to follow a pre-recorded path. It has an option to enable "looping", which will make it teleport to the beginning of the path and start again automatically. It is planned to have the action start on NPC load, as to not need a player interaction to start it. - Upgrade adventure to version 5 - Reworked the commands to use vanilla Brig - Removed support for 1.20-1.20.4 - This is due to obfuscation changes which make maintaining these versions more burdensome than they are worth. Very few users use this version, so I felt it was the correct decision for the long term longevity of the project. - Fixed a couple of misc bugs - NPCs can have now empty hologram lines with %empty% - Added a tip to inform players they can Sneak + Click NPCs to open the edit dialog - NPCs can no longer have 0 hologram lines. - Added a config fixer to recover NPCs who have 0 config lines, as that prevented the NPC from loading. (/npc fixconfig lines) - Fixed the NPC skin not being updated when changed on versions 1.21.9-26.2 Full Changelog: https://github.com/Foxikle/CustomNPCs/compare/v1.7.9...v1… If you have experience speaking a language other than English and are willing to donate your time to improve the plugin, please consider becoming a translator. You can reach out to @foxikle on Discord for more details. In exchange for helping me with the project, you get access to preview builds and exclusive development content. Cheers <3

Added support for 26.2

Fix NullPointerException on player Join/Leave when a world was loaded after the server's initial start by @webhead1104

Changes: - 1.21.11 support - Fixed some typos - Updated German and Russian translations - Added the Modrinth link to the update message.

This release adds support for Minecraft version 1.21.10

- This update adds support for 1.21.9 - Updated a few dependencies

New Features:

- 1.21.5 - 1.21.8 support - NPC Poses - There are 6 possible poses: Standing, Sitting, Crouching, Swimming, Dying, and Sleeping. - NPC Nudging - Nudging is way to move NPCs a little bit at a time to precisely position them.

There is no message for an action being on cooldown.

Bug Fixes

- Fixed the UUID being visible with a teamless approach, which is much more tolerant to other plugins - Fixed being able to supply textual input to multiple actions at once - Fixed the sleeping percentage not being respected if it was changed after the server started - Fixed Elytras not being able to be equiped in the chest slot - Fixed problems with clicking items in the equipment menu - Changed the default NPC name to "An unnamed NPC" - NPC nametags follow a lot smoother - NPCs no longer have a visible armor stand riding them in spectator mode - NPCs now ignore spectators and do not look at them - Fixed importing skins from URLS - Fixed some issues with the commands library - Fixed errors with menus on latest paper versions - Fixed some issues with dependency downloading at runtime (Thanks paper!)

The get/set name methods are now deprecated and just affect the top line. - Poses can be changed in the settings object - Added a "facing" system, to be more consistent with how NPC yaw and pitch are handled. - Custom actions should call the Action#activateCooldown(UUID) in ther perform method.

Fixed the upside down button not working (whoops!)

This version adds the ability to flip NPCs upside down. This feature can be accessed in the extra settings menu. ![An image of the new extra settings menu](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/a344e03a21ddf…

- Fixed the plugin not enabling on 1.21.8 - Added cooldowns to actions, defaulting to 0.

Bug fixes: - Fixes errors with menus on latest paper versions - Other misc repo fixes There are no visible changes this release.

Fixed library loading issues causing the plugin to not load

New Features: - 1.21.6-7 support Bug Fixes: - Updated commands - Fixed importing skins from URLs - Fixed spectators not actually being ignored Developer changes: - Added a "facing" system, to be more consistent with how NPC yaw and pitch are handled.

New Features:

- NPC Poses - NPCs can now be posed! There are 6 possible poses: Standing, Sitting, Crouching, Swimming, Dying, and Sleeping. - NPC Nudging - Nudging is way to move NPCs a little bit at a time to precisely position them. Crouching while scrolling increases the move increment from .05 blocks per slot to .25 blocks per slot scrolled over. - Native Multi Line Holograms - Instead of using the <newline> minimessage tag, you can now create separate lines. Your existing data will be converted automatically.

Bug Fixes

- Fixed a bug preventing Elytras from being equipable on the chest slot - Fixed some problems with the equipment menu - The default name of NPCs was changed from not set to An Unamed NPC - NPCs nametags should follow them a lot better now - NPCs no longer have a visible armor stand riding them in spectator mode - A bunch of minute fixes I didn't write down - NPCs now ignore spectators and won't look at them

Developer changes

- The NPC#moveTo(Location) was renamed to NPC#teleport(Location) as moveTo is reserved for other movement related features coming later :wink: - The Settings class now has a method to import a player's skin - NPCs no longer have "names", but rather an array of "lines". The get/set name methods are now deprecated and just affect the top line. - Poses can be changed in the settings object - This update can be used via the 1.7.5-pre2 api version This update took way longer than it should have, but now it's here :) \~ Foxikle <3

New Features:

- 1.21.5 support

Bug Fixes

- Fix npc UUID being visible by using a different (teamless) approach - Fixed being able to supply textual input for several actions at once - Fixed the sleeping percentage not being respected if it was changed after server start **

Known Issues:

- Dragging items in an inventory will throw an error. It is a result of the PaperMC developers not supporting bytecode rewriting on paper plugins. I cannot do anything about it, complain to them. - There is a rare kick that occurs when creating NPCs. I'm not sure what causes it, but I'm working on finding out.

Roadmap:

Before 1.8 and the new data serializing and storage, I want to get the following features implemented: - Proper multi-line NPC holograms - Poses (sitting, swimming, etc) ###### Note about sleeping percentages: The plugin modifies the sleeping percentage to be equivalent to the percentage you supplied, correcting for the number NPCs. So if your server has a sleeping percentage of 100 and your world has 1 NPC, the percentage from running the command /gamerule playersSleepingPercentage will be 50.

This is a pretty small release, but it fixes: - Injection issues on dimension change and join - Setting the sleeping percentage incorrectly - It now respects user defined sleeping percentages via the gamerule

This release includes mostly bug fixes from the past month

- Fixed the display buttons in the teleport customizer menu always showing the X coordinate - Fixed the volume and pitch being reversed when playing a sound - Fixed the load order of dependencies - Created a new /npc debug command to help you help me help you. (When seeking support it provides useful information to me) - Made some minor improvements to injection logic around different dimensions - Added a config option to interpolate npc nametags on teleport

IMPORTANT NOTE: This release REMOVES the ability to use this plugin on a spigot server. As a bonus of this, the plugin will now load the required dependencies at runtime. This makes the final jar file a lot smaller (about 10 times smaller!). The downside is it can take a "while" (about 2 minutes, in my case) to download the required dependencies. This is advantageous, as it stores the downloaded dependencies and only needs to download them once! Okay on with the patch notes:

Bug Fixes

- Fixes errors on 1.21.3+ servers when using like anything on the server - Fixes hologram injection issues in some cases - The SetSound action now uses keyed sounds (minecraft:ui.button.click), instead of ui_button_click. This is potentially detrimental as it will not convert from old sounds. (The actions still run, a warning is printed to the console and no sound is played). BUT, this lets you play resource pack sounds now! Just use the namespace and the sound id. namspace:id. This is mostly a bug fix type of update as I have started working on the 1.8 series of updates, starting with optimized data storage. So you can look forward to that ;) Foxikle <3

CustomNPCs v1.7.1 - Fixed critical bug with condition parsing, preventing NPCs from loading - Fixed the config being backed up every time the server started

CustomNPCs now supports the following languages: - Russian (partially) - German (partially) - Arabic (partially) - Simplified Chinese (fully) - Vietnamese (fully) - English (fully) - An action System rewrite - Custom Actions can be registered via the API - the RunCommand action can now run commands as the console please be careful - The RunCommand action will now parse placeholders in the raw command text - The DisplayTitle action can now have a subtitle - Various performance enhancements - A new command /npc fixconfig: - Requres the customnpcs.commands.fix_config permission - Here is some example usage, with an explanation: /npc fixconfig world <Valid World> <Strategy> <target> - The Valid World has to be a world that is loaded by Bukkit (Multiverse should work too) - The strategy can either be NONE, which doesn't care about validating the location of the NPC. the SAFE_LOCATION strategy will verify the NPC won't be stuck in any solid blocks. If it is, the plugin will pick the highest block with the same x and z coordinate. If no position is possible, the NPC is ignored. - The Target can either be all, to apply to all NPCs or a specific NPC's name or UUID - A new command framework - The NPC configuration is validated on the first parse, rather than on load - There is now a special permission for the wiki command; customnpcs.commands.wiki

- NPCs Minecraft names are now derived from their UUID, (The first 15 characters) - API Version is now 1.5.2 - There is a new Class that should be used for interactions with the API. You still need to initialize the API with NPCApi.initialize(). - The Old NPC class is now deprecated and marked for removal in Version 1.6 - NPCs can now have "tunnel vision" or the ability to ignore players around them. NPCs will not look at players within 5 blocks. - The Javadocs are now on version 1.5.2-pre3. (I tried to make each version have their own directory and utterly failed) - ie. https://docs.foxikle.dev/customnpcs/1.5.2 would have CustomNPCs version 1.5.2 javadocs, and so on. The javadocs are [here](https://docs.foxikle.dev), and the developer wiki is [here](https://github.com/Foxikle/CustomNPCs/wiki). Cheers! ~ Foxikle

Bugs and issues

Please report bugs on [GitHub](<https://github.com/Foxikle/CustomNPCs/issues/new/choose>). ***

Conditional Actions

To create a conditional action, start by editing an action. ![Edit the NPC Action](https://github.com/Foxikle/CustomNPCs/assets/89223211/d93… You may notice a new item in the menu, the comparator. Clicking this will bring up an option to edit the action's conditions. ![Edit action condition menu](https://github.com/Foxikle/CustomNPCs/assets/89223211/f77… You will notice the candle in the bottom right of the menu. This is how you toggle between matching ALL conditions vs matching ONE condition. From there, you can add a new condition by clicking on the lily pad. ![Create a new condition](https://github.com/Foxikle/CustomNPCs/assets/89223211/e41… There are two types of conditions. Numeric conditions compare things with numeric values. Logical conditions compare other things. Then, finally, you can edit the conditions properties. ![image](https://github.com/Foxikle/CustomNPCs/assets/89223211/cfa… This update was probably the most fun to work on, and I appreciate each and every one of you who chooses my plugin to use. It makes my day knowing that you think that my plugin is worth using. Thank you for allowing me to do this, it means the world. ~ Foxikle

(The plugin still works without it) - SEND_MESSAGE - DISPLAY_TITLE - ACTION_BAR - Customizable clickable hologram. - The ability to disable the clickable hologram. - The ability to have empty name tags (%empty%) - Config versioning (This allows me to update the config with new data for you, without needing to delete it and have a new one generated) - Added a prompt on server start up to update the plugin. (Console only)

Bug Fixes

- Fixed plugin not reloading properly on /npc reload - Fixed RUN_COMMAND action not de-serializing the command correctly

Other Changes

- Changed log prefix from CNPC to CustomNPCs *** As always, if you encounter any bugs or would like to request a feature, please make a visit to the [issues page](<https://github.com/Foxikle/CustomNPCs/issues/new/choose>). Thanks :) Foxikle

CustomNPCs v1.3.1

The only change in this release is adding support for namespaced commands (customnpcs:npc) Thanks to Larres for submitting this issue! Please continue to report any issues you encounter! Thats it! -Foxike

New Features

- 1.20 Support - New Action System (more info later) - Anonymous statistic collection with bStats The data I collect can be seen [here](https://bstats.org/plugin/bukkit/CustomNPCs/18898) - Sound effects when interacting in menus - New Injection events - Changed the way text input is collected - New Experimental API Docs can be found [here](https://foxikle.dev/plugins/CustomNPCs/docs/index.html) ---

Bug Fixes

- Fixed /npc reload not working as intended - Fixed NPC names displaying 'nothing' instead of 'CLICK' when first creating/editing an NPC - Fixed numerous errors due to internal issues - Fixed being able to remove 'display' items out of menus - Fixed actions duplicating when editing them from the actions menu. ---

Important Notices:

- This release requires you to use Paper as your server jar. Most of you are already, but this is here as a warning. - A note about bStats: I use the data collected to improve the plugin as much as I can. That being said, if you would like to opt out of anonymous telemetry data collection, please do so by changing enabled: true (default) to enabled: false. The config can be found in the bStats folder located in your plugins directory. ---

Actions

The main new feature of this update is the new Action System. The action system is an expansion of the old command system. Your old npcs.yml file will be converted to the new system. That being said, I highly suggest you make a backup of your file before updating. The action "types" are as follows: - Run Command - Nothing new, this acts the same as the old system. Legacy commands are converted to these. - Send Message - Sends the player a message. Self explanatory - Display Title - Displays a title for the player. - Action Bar - Sends the player an Action bar - Toggle Following (Experiemental) - Toggles the NPC following the player. Not perfect, but that's why its marked as experimental! - Play Sound - Plays a sound for the player at the player's location - Teleport - Teleports the player to the specified location - Send to Bungeecord Server - Sends the player to a BungeeCord server. Nothing happens if the server isn't connected to a BungeeCord network.
